I have found that limit is a dog of a different breed. It is ALOT different then No-Limit that is for sure. I do like limit. After you get a feel for the table it is easy to feed off the fish. The biggest thing is to try and not commit to much $ to the pot till you have a made hand. You will always have fish(limit and no-limit alike). You just have to remember that a middle hand is woth seeing a cheap flop. And DO NOT try and bluff a pot. You might get away with it once or twice, but you will lose more money then you make.
I started out bt playing cheap SnG’s on Full-Tilt ,PartyPoker and PokerStars with has great playmoney SnG’s too.
I agree that playing limit has disadvantages especially when you want to knock a player out and in limit pot odds and splits get funny.
I agree that tourneys (freerolls) are a good place to start, and cheap buy-ins you can play lots of hands and get some experience, but as for ring games go to the lowest limits if you haven’t played before. Learn to read the board, get a feeling for losing and winning money and how you react, then when you get board and want to play for real money go where your bankroll and skill level fits. anything from 1/2 and below are fairly similar in skill 2/4 is not much better but i say the money is a lot more which affects play early in your career.
You will get so unbelievably pissed off when you raise with your AA and someone reraises you, and you reraise and 3 other people call, just to see that you have been beaten by 7/2 diamonds (happened to my KK today) by rivering a flush regarldess of how much you bet.
This happens in 10$/20$ limit also (k10 flop JQ9) and a guy with suited JQ betraises you to the max, and runner runners a backdoor flush. Things like that make you just want to end your life.
