Also in limit, its much easier to see opps weakness and take advantage. It seems like they will chase, play loose, bad pot odds... So you can extract money fairly easily w/o as much risk. However in NL, you get some fish who are loose/aggressive, the amount of risk to reward is variable. Agruably you can win real big NL limit pots (im comparing 1/2 llimit to $50 no-limit b/c the aver pot sizes are them same) vs limit. However, overal I feel the average pot size wins and the consistancy is better in limit..

No-Limit is a bit stressful and I would prefer limit if I had a hard day and want to avoid any more gray hairs on my head.
Krapp, great post. I have very little experience in limit games, but in the small amount of time I've played them I have noticed many of the same things you point out.
