Re: Limit or NL Home Game?
I like them all and each style (NL/PL versus limit) has its own advantages.
A couple of things to try:
1. lower stakes relative to buyin (as TMJ2K mentioned)
2. play a capped NL game (30-50bb). If you are not familar with a cap, basically in no hand can the total amounts bet per player across all streets be more than XXbb. If you are playing .25/.50 NL with a 50bb cap, the most you can lose on any hand is $25. Some folks hate this, some folks like it, I've never had an issue with it and its just designed to minimize variance.
3. play limit though this is more than just changing the amt of money wager, its a much more different game IMO so folks may not like it.
