Small Stakes Hold 'em

[Bluefish7]

Hi

Thinking of buying Small Stakes Hold 'em - Winning big with expert play ... is this book just for limit hold em or does it apply for no limit ?

Many Thanks

It is mainly for Limit, but in the introduction it does state "the advice is not limit-specific". Thick book packed with great advice and you WILL get an insight into how small stakes players, be it NL or L, play. Mines dog eared and I mainly play NL.

Doesn't that mean the advice is not just specific to small stakes fixed limit games but also too loose higher stakes games?

There isn't a scrap worth of NL advice in that book.

[Bluefish7]

Anyone advise a good book for small stakes NL then ?

[Gelford]

There aren't any

Angel Largay's book.

Harrington On Hold-Em Volume 1;
No Limit Hold Em Theory and Practice;
Mastering No Limit Hold Em by Fox and Harker;
Professional No Limit Hold'Em Volume 1

These are all worth reading IMO.

You did put the dash in, so that changes the meaning.

Limit Specific would mean what you imply.
Limit-specific would mean that it does not matter what limit you play, as long as the fish hop around the same. Ie, it was saying it does not matter if you play 2/4,3/6,4/8, or even 20/40 if the players play as the book describes.

I do agree that the small stakes capped NL games are not too different than the small stakes limit games.

Think you should ask one of the B&M players who manage to earn $75 an hour playing 1/2 NL.
