If relief from swings is what you're looking for by playing limit, don't expect any better my friend. The swings can be unbearable sometimes.

what range would you call low limit? does that include the 3-6 limit game at the indian casino near here? would the info in small stakes hold'em be applicable when playing against the superdonkey calling stations there?

Definitely SSHE is applicable to your typical california no fold'em hold'em game - after I read it, I was able to beat those games pretty consistently through simply just following the starting hand recommendations.

There are a lot more bad players in low stakes NL than low stakes limit right now, are you sure you wouldn't just rather move down to a level in NL games?You might be under the impression that limit requires a lot less money to play. This is wrong and it is a bad reason to switch games. Otherwise, everyone else's recommendation of SSHE is right on.

iwould step down in NL, limit draw outs are ten times worse for me than NL, i started playing 5/10 cent NL on UB when I was taking a beating at higher limitslimit is what i play at casinos sometimes but its a suckout game

MY swings aren't bad in limit like some people say over and over. Maybe theirs are, just my .02. Consistanly up not all over the place like NL. Read Lee Jones Low Limit Hold Em along with SSHE.

If you don't have big swings, you're not playing aggressively enough.

I'll recommend an alternative to SSH that I think is better. It is the new book by Mat Maroon called "Winnding Texas Hold Em''. Plus, it is only 10 bucks. One word of warning though, while it is well written, it is poorly edited.

Define aggressiveness. I think I play too tight because I don't have big swings in limit. What kind of hands (preflop and post flop) should I be playing hard. I play .25/.50 on UB.

You're gonna hate this. Say it with me....It Depends!Heh.There are so many scenarios where you could be playing too tight or too weak. You really just have to post hands you have questions on in strat to figure it out.

Ed Miller desereves primary credit Imo. The book also credits Gary Carson for a few things. fwiw

Disagree completely.I just moved to Party from UB, and they are FAR worse than UB... It's unreal.... move to Party immediately.Zach
