Limit Poker

Anyone here plays limit?

I'm trying it at 1/2 and would like to get some tips on people trying this longer than me.

One thing that I was wondering is about Flush draws when you have 4 cards of the same suit on the flop. By my math even if your opponent bets at you at every street you should still call since you have odds (even in heads up). Is this correct?

What other differences from NL should I be aware of?

The very generic answer I give to people asking about the difference between LHE and NLHE is this: Think about equity, not about implied odds.

Yes it is mathmatically correct to call, but I suggest that in limit; play just as tight as possible because you have to keep in mind if you dont have the nut flush draw you can hit your hand and still lose. They say your goal in limit should be to win 1 big bet per hour, the problem behind that statement is based off live play at about 30 hands per hour. So online your goal should be about 3 big bets per hour, or 1 big bet every 30 hands. To effectively accomplish this you need to be getting in with only premium hands. I would suggest for just an hour play only these hands and see how it comes out in the end if you make at least $6 then you acomplished the goal. AA, KK, QQ, AKs, AKo, AQs all for pre-flop raise; limp with JJ, TT, 99, 88, 77, AQo AJs, AJo, ATs. Try to play only these hands and I think you will see results with far less risk. The true key to limit is saving bets so sometimes you may want to just fold that flush draw unless it is the nut flush draw. I hope this helped you out and good luck.

Funny you mention playing only premium hands... funny because I had 9 times AA yesterday and lost 6 of them in a row... talk about a statistical abnormality

But I run away from the topic... if anyone wants to share some more tips feel free.
