Re: how necessary is limit for NL success
Not necessary at all. It can certainly help you learn basic poker concepts that apply to both games, but it's not a pre-req for no limit play.

Agreed, it's not necessary. I think it's nice to round off your skills by taking different games a try, but you certainly don't have to play LHE to be good at NLHE.
It's worth mentioning that until the recent poker explosion, LHE was spread as a ring game much more often than NLHE, so it kind of goes without saying that anyone playing back then would mostly be playing LHE. |

I've never played LHE and do quite well at NL.
I do however suggest spending some time learning the other forms of poker - each game emphasizes different skills slightly, and learning them all (or even just one other) will make you a better overall poker player. |

Re: how necessary is limit for NL success
I never played limit when I first started, I thought it was boring and never played it, lately I've been playing it alot though and like it now that I'm starting to understand how it's played better. Definatly not a prereq but it's a great game to learn and there is alot of money to be had playing it.
