a sit and go doesn't reqire the patience a limit game does.

In a sit and go eventually, usually within a half hour to an hour, you have to loosen up your play and take chances. Oddly enough a half hour to an hour is about how long a typical player can keep his patience before loosening up and gambling more in a limit game.

knowing what to do is easy actually being able to do it over a period of time is a different story.

Your problem in limit games could be that you lose your patience after a certain period of time.

Let's be honest here, playing solid poker is a boring activity. Many people can do it for a designated period of time but then let human nature take over and start gambling more. Probably the reason for the popularity of Sit and Go's and tournaments. they are structured almost perfectly for this phenomonon, play tight early and the GAMBLE, GAMBLE, GAMBLE!!!

Kind of intersting when you stop to think about.
