| What is the difference between NL and PL? I don't mean the way to play because I know the rules, but I mean strategywise. How would you play differently in PL and NL? |

| Well, I'd say the only difference is that you can't scare guys off pots with all in bets. That and if there are big time fish at the table, you don't have as many chances to make or call all in bets against megalomaniacs who are throwing their stack up for grabs early in a hand since you're restricted to getting the money in at a slower rate. |

| Well, the only difference is that you can't overbet. Postflop this really won't make much of a difference for most people unless the stacks are just slightly bigger than the pot. Pre-flop it can lead to some annoying situations where you'll be forced to make smaller reraises than you want though, and in tournaments it makes playing with what would normally be a push/fold stack really awkward imo. |
