I think im pretty passable NL player.
Problem is that i have the most problems in the math area. Would it be a good idea to turn to limit for awhile and find that "mechanical play"? Of course then turn to NL again because im a man ... [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] In general, do you think limit will help you with NL? |

The two most important numbers in NL--fold equity and implied odds--comes from experience and reading your opponent. Limit will not help in this respect.
Limit is very good for counting outs and memorizing pot odds, but seeing as how most of the time you'll never get proper pot odds in NL that doesn't really help. However playing limit shorthanded or stud will help you read opponents better and put them on a range of hands. |

Playing limit has really helped my NL game. And if probably saved me a lot of money along the way.
For newer players, it's easier to analyze a situation when you're not worried about losing all your chips. |

[/ QUOTE ] this is probably your best bet, I put a ton of time at getting good at shorthanded and HU, and if you stick with it and have good instincts and such you can really get a lot better feel for where you stand in a hand. And I started learning NL recently and its helped a ton. |

Personally I think the best way to learn NL is to start with limit, just because it can be easy to be lazy in NL and think about odds a little less than the ideal. It doesn't need actually playing limit (booooorrrrinnnggg), but reading a book on limit should do the trick.
