A good NL player will make a few bb/100 more than his Limit counterpart -but its hard to equate levels.

NL is just as much a grind as Limit. Ppl think of the big wins in NL but in fact these hardly count at higher limits - you have to chew away with constant pressure against the blinds.

Fundamentally fewer ppl/fish play NL. I swear that I personally killed off the Crypto 0.5/1 tables. Try finding one with a flop entry of much more 35% now.

A good mid stakes NL has one major problem...RAKE.

Limit, strange but true, has a higher variance.

Fundamental theory of winning poker states: If you cant beat the chasers - you'll never beat the folders - whatever game, whatever level.
