No Limit vs. Limit Poker
Summary
Imagine you're sitting on the dealer button and spot two Aces in the hole. This hand looks promising. As play comes around, several players call the big blind, eager to see the flop. When it's your turn with three callers already in, you confidently announce a raise, doubling the bet to see the flop. The small blind folds, leaving you to challenge four other players with your powerful hand.
Welcome to limit poker.
Why Play Limit Poker?
If limit poker doesn’t allow big raises to protect strong hands, why play it? The answer is simple: cash games.
Despite the popularity of televised and home-game tournaments, the traditional cash game remains strong. Limit betting is particularly favored in these games.
Advantages of Cash Games
1. Recover from Mistakes: Unlike tournaments, a bad beat or poor play doesn't eliminate you. Simply buy back in and continue.
2. Online Bonuses: For online players, cash games provide opportunities to earn poker room bonuses. Poker rooms rake the pots, so they incentivize players to keep tables active by offering bonuses.
As a break-even cash game player with a solid bankroll, you can earn thousands in bonuses monthly. If your bankroll is smaller, you might earn a few hundred. Playing break-even poker at cash tables opens new avenues.
Navigating No Limit Cash Games
While no limit cash games are becoming more available, they cater to highly skilled players. The betting structure can lead to significant financial swings. A single hand could wipe out an entire night's winnings or your entire bankroll.
Limit Poker: This style provides some insulation against bad beats and poor plays. Though you can still place substantial bets through raising and re-raising in limit games, each action lets you reassess the situation. You're continually choosing to invest in the pot.
No Limit Poker: One decision can lead to a significant move. A brief lapse in focus might prove disastrous.
Different Strategies
