Default Figures vs. feel

It’s hard to argue that limit is as challenging as NL. I’m actually surprised that Laak was able to beat the bot, as winning is limit is really about understanding/mastering starting hand requirements, position and pot odds. There are plenty of situations in limit where the cards might as well be face-up. If I’m chasing a flush, and have nine outs with one card left, how big does the pot have to be for me to call, even if I’m behind after the turn? (Anybody care to answer this one?)

At 4/8 or less, bluffing in limit is usually a mistake, beyond a continuation bet. Tells don’t matter all that much, because I’m playing the cards, not the man.

NL – especially live, especially cash games – is a more advanced game that rewards guts as much as it does caution, and in which being able to disguise your hand/emotions – and read those of others – is a crucial skill.
