so here is my situation, I've been playing NL for a while now and doing pretty good at it. I've recently just discovered limit hold'em (4 days ago) and fell in love with it, plus I found that it was easier to make money at the hold'em tables. Now my question is this. Apart from this awesome website, what other resources should I get to improve my limit game and what website is the best to play online limit hold'em (the most fishy players)
thanks for the help.
later

Read Small Stakes Holdem by Sklansky to improve your limit game the most. From what I have heard, you should play anywhere that doesn't allow US players for the fishiest games if possible. If you are in the US, then I'd recommend Pokerstars, the players aren't very fishy, but they have the most game selection, software, and support.

Need some more info on your bankroll/citizenship/bonus situation to determine what sites are best for you right now. I have a large library of limit books but they are tough reads. There are plenty of resources online as well as downloadable books. You need to have a solid mathematical understanding of the game to play limit well, get those basics down first then work on imrpoving the rest of your game.

right now the bankroll is at approx 900$. This is only my first week playing limit, it was supposed to be a "just give it a try" thing but I fell in love with limit hold'em, especially after seeing my initial 100$ grow to 900$ in a week playing the $.5/1$ tables. As for the citizenship, I'm Canadian and I'm been playing on UB and FTP.
what are the downloadable books that you are talking about?

If you are Canadian, DO NOT play limit on Full Tilt. Those are the absolute most difficult low-limit games you will find anywhere and I have no idea why so many good players insist on playing there despite the tough games. I've never played on UB, but I would say Party Poker is your best bet as a Canadian.

I play NL on UB now but I sit at limit tables from time to time. The play there is quite poor. Anyways, the link for the downloads was in Trainer_Jyms blog here on FTR. Im not sure if it still up but it's worth a shot.
