You make money in limit when you realize that your made hand or draw is not the best and fold, saving bets.

There are many ways to save bets in limit, but they are not limited to folding.

It just didn't make sense to me before how you could have winning players because if there multiple players in pots all getting 5:1 a lot of the time or better, they are almost always all correct to call, therefore no one is making mistakes and therefore everyone should be a winner which does not compute.

A lot of times, people are not getting the correct odds to call and they call anyways, donating money to everybody else. Also, you have to think about making their odds worse by raising/ check-raising to make opponents get worse odds (in the appropriate situations).

If you haven't read ToP yet, I highly recommend it.
