On the limit/no-limit thing:
I used to dislike limit. I didn't like it because I didn't like the discipline. But if you want to be a winning poker player you have to have discipline. And discipline is EASIER in Limit than NL.
Classic example above:
Barax: KJ?
Barax calls $17.20
Knowing when you're beat is a skill you need to have. Being act on that knowledge properly is vital. You have to be prepared to give up a hand whenever you have good reason to believe you're beat.
One thing I remember and try to keep in mind every single time I'm going to make a decision is that as of that exact moment I am exatly even, and the decision I make then is going to determine whether I'm going to make or lose money.
I like sitting at tables with people who complain about limit being too boring because I know they're the guys who will chase action when they shouldn't. I play B&M often. I hear it often, and it makes me money.
