ok im trying hard to become a winning player i think im close to a break even player been playing for 2-3 years online
im used to playing no-limit and pot limit i miss plh since black Friday because no body plays it on the new sites
but ive been thinking of playing fixed limit intill i get a decent poker bankroll and get better and learn to play tighter
when i 1st started playing online i tried it and i didnt do well at it but did better at nl and pl
any thoughts and suggestions

also fixed limit 6 handed r full ring game

If your ultimate goal is to transition back to NL/PL games then I'd say you're just wasting your time - just focus on the games you intend to be playing.

The idea that limit protects you from swings and it's the best game for slowly and steadily building a roll is a fallacy IMO. Sure you can't lose a 100BB stack in a single misplayed hand but you can't win an entire 100BB stack when your opponents misplay either and if you're a losing player you'll still lose playing limit - you just might do it a bit more slowly.

Also I don't believe there are many lessons you can learn playing LHE that can't be learned just as well playing NLHE. There are a bunch of important lessons about NLHE that LHE can't teach you though - bet sizing is an obvious one.

If you're looking to play LHE long term or alongside other games though then obviously go ahead, find yourself some resources (like the book Amroth mentions) and plug away. But I just think it's a waste of time trying to learn to play one game better by plowing lots of time and effort into a completely different game...

after playing mostly limit poker since creating this post ive noticed that i play tighter knowing i cant bluff at pots as much cant put $5 into a $6-7 pot n steal it cant go all in preflop with 10s vs aq ak r cant lose $10 when i got poket 7s and im all in with a flop thats 10 3 4r and up against kq kj and some1 hits a runner which has happen to me alot knowing i got the best of it i call r raise and get called just so they can hit their out on the turn r river so i think that i might try playing and sticking to limit
