I think limit is easier. It's much more mechanical, and you can get away with paying less attention and still being a winning player. I can eaily play 2-3 limit games at a time, while doing other things, and pump out a decent BB/hr rate. If I try that in NL, I may still come out ahead, but it's a lot riskier. Misplaying one hand in NL can cost you your stack. In limit, you are talking about a bet or two.

I know i have only played one day but im saying so far i think its easier, i agree with what TP said because it doesnt require as much focus, where as in NL making one wrong move can cost you your stack just like TP said

My prediction? You start finding it a lot harder pretty soon, and you lose money. Honestly, do you really think it's easier because you've hit a hot streak for 1 day?

BTW, what limit are you playing and with what bankroll?

I just find it extremely difficult to post serious replies to this twat. I'm not sure how you guys do it.

He's playing on a .05/.10 roll at who knows what stakes (I'd be surprised if they were under .50/1.00 though). He's broke by the end of the week.

You guys are misleading this KID by saying it's easier. You say "easier" and he translates it to "easy."

It's like comparing a law school exam and a med school exam. One may be easier than the other but neither shoudl be construed as easy.
