Lately I’ve been playing mostly no-limit, so I haven’t been posting as many articles or Q&As about limit. Unfortunately, this post isn’t a new article about limit hold’em. But it is an archive review dedicated to limit, which is actually like four times better because it’s links to four articles, right?
- One of my main pet peeves as a poker instructor is when someone responds to one of my recommendations with some variant of, “But Doyle Brunson Says…” Find out why it annoys me.
- Once you’ve mastered the starting hand charts, it’s time to Take Off The Training Wheels.
- Usually a bad idea, occasionally a good one, and always a contentious topic, it’s Folding On The River In A Big Pot
- Finally, it’s another very popular topic. When you’re Calculating Odds On The Flop: Count Both Cards Or Just One?

I like what you are saying about the advantage of playing a short stack, but have one big question.
What happens after I win an all-in pot with a short stack? Example. I buy into a 2-5 no limit game (up to $500 allowed) for $250. I go all in on a hand, and now have $500. All very good, but I’m no longer short stacked and not allowed to take money off of the table.
What do you advise for this situation? Should I switch tables and pull money, if possible? Keep playing with a full stack? Quit for the day? Something else?
Thanks.
