i've concluded this author doesn't know what he's talking about....

i'm going to rip it apart right now even though i should be studying...

"No Limit Holdem Is A More Technical Game"
false. being able to vary the bet sizes doesn't add any complexity. you either bet 1/2 the pot size or the pot size. anything else is silly.

"Psychology Is A Bigger Factor In No Limit"
fine, i agree. but the author fails to realize how expensive "calling down" really is after 1000 hands.

"No Limit Positional Play"
again, the author fails to realize how expensive it is to call down, or fold the better hand.

"Initiative More A Factor In No Limit"
fine...you bet the pot on the flop. i call. you bet the pot on the turn. i call. wtf do you do now on the river?

"Chip Size Matters In No Limit"
fine.

"In No Limit The Odds Are Against The Weak"
what about implied odds for the weak? who hasn't lost their trip aces to a flush on the river?

"The Stakes Are Bigger In No Limit"
last time i checked all online poker rooms have bigger stakes in limit.

"High Cards (KQ, AJ, KJ,...) Go Down In Value, Middle Pairs Go Up"
too generalized

"Some Draws Go Down In Value In No Limit Holdem"
no, you just go all in on the flop. with 2 cards to come you're even money on quality flush and OESDs.

"Bluffing Is A Key Tool In No Limit"
fine.

"No Limit Games Have Less People Seeing The Flop"
depends.

this site is too generalized to draw any conclusive differences.
