But you guys are cool and I'll tell you the truth - LHE is super swingy.
No apology's needed Calli, lol.
I used to play limit too, ( wasn't that clear from what I wrote?),like I'm sure most of the older players on the forum.
One can lose even more in limit. Like you said, it's even more swingy.
It's a misconception that limit is somehow safer' It is and it isn't.
You're dealt more hands per hour and if you run bad in limit, those bets add up.
You can lose a buy in easy in one session, just losing multiple would be indeed an achievement that I hadn't ever accomplished, oh well.
