O8 Explanation to ChipFish

[GeoffM]

James, we're playing in a sitngo right now. The reason I play limit is because the players suck, plain and simple. In no limit, the players are better and stop your draw, but in limit the players suck badly and check frequently, allowing you to hit more draws. Of course they will also often draw dead against your draw or try to catch with like 2 outers and what not. Believe me when I say in this case O8 limit is much more profitable in the long run than no limit or pot limit, due to the calibre of player.

Hey! Thanks Geoff! Am I Catching on OK?
GOT YA!

I was actually in the same SNG with Chip and Geoff and play quite a bit of limit. Lately been making some good moves (and some bad ones), but I still have a lot to learn. These guys turned me on to the forum and what I have read so far is incredibly beneficial!

From what I have seen in the time that I have been playing, yes...O8 limit CAN be very rewarding. But the limit also works against you; especially early on. You can play perfect poker and get crushed BECAUSE the guy that doesn't really know what's going on chases and catches. On UB it happens way too often in SNGs, Tourneys, AND on the tables.

I would much rather count on the No Limit tables and tourneys to increase my personal stack. The chances of an inexperienced player "chasing and catching" are far less if you play right and make the timely moves. Just my opinion as a first post, but I believe many would agree.

LMFAO, silly game lmfao, you guys are so silly, tehehe.

Cru, welcome. TP, where is my referral bonus LOL?

That was the worst I ever played a sitngo. I have Cru and ChipFish to thank for taking me out of concentration, that and the 1/2 PP ring game I was playing that was just silly profit .

Cru, there is a spot for you in the pWo, oh and that avatar looks silly .
