When I started playing, everyone had moved to "the cadillac of poker" No Limit Holde Em. So i never experienced playing in many limit games. I know a lot people started with them tho, before the big poker boom
I played both limit and no-limit years back when I was learning. I didn't really care for limit. In a lot of cases, you can't size your bet appropriately to give your opponent incorrect odds to call. It also makes it tough to play speculative hands like suited connectors and small pairs because the implied odds aren't there.
