I don't think that's a judgement vs Limit tourneys - wonder if he feels the same way about NL ring games.

I gotta admit, I've been paying a lot more attention to tourneys then limit holdem - it's sorta more entertaining - some folks like the competition factor more and the fact a guy can come in 1st appeals to a winner's instinct more then "it's all one game" and "1.5 BB/hr is a good return for your money"

Agree.
I'll add: Limit holdem is about praying for the combination of good cards and running well.
