I used to play mostly 2/4 - 5/10 limit( 12-14 months ago) before getting into MTTs and later cash games(lots of 600-2000 NL).
I am considering relearning limit(not as my main game, I just think its interesting). How difficult do you think it would be to become profitable at 30/60? 100/200? Its been a long time since I've read the limit forums/ played limit, just was wondering how games are now/ how tough it is to learn. |

Easy to become decent (if your poker theory is sound which it probably is to beat 2000 NL) and tough to be great. You'd probably catch up to most of the midlimit winning limit players within a month.

Within a month? Are you serious...
What 100/200 games are you referring to and where are they that some 5/10 newbie would come crushing tables full of regulars? Timex, I dont see why you would re-learn limit, the games are dry - I hear NL is the bomb so why would you ever wanna switch? |

Don't listen to Alex, there's plenty of money to be made playing limit. If you have good poker instincts and a solid foundation then you can probably do ok in mid-limit games right off as long as you have decent game selection.
Plus poo-flinging is much more fun than that NL crap. |

timex you could probably be beating the 30/60 games within a month or two with your knowledge/learning ability. limit is not nearly as hard as nl to become 'good' imo.

Such a mischaracterization of what Death Donkey wrote I can see why you didn't quote. |

Rather than looking strictly from a timing perspective, what about various methods for becoming a good/great player.
What tools (e.g. books, mentors, practice, etc.) have you used to become a good/great limit hold'em player? Also, what makes a great limit hold'em player? |
