You can play any poker variation with a Limit betting structure. On the contrary, it is not always possible to play a game as No-Limit. Moreover, Limit poker is perfect for beginners, who decided to start playing this game.

By playing Limit you do not have to be the best in psychology, you use more logic and mathematics. So you do not need much experience and you can already play a serious game.

The most important thing about Limit is that the risk of loss is lower than in No-Limit. In No-Limit every mistakes can cause you big problems and the chance of good result is not adequate to that risk.

One of the traits of No-Limit is that it provides opportunities for an amateur to make "dark tunnel" or "donk" bluffs. At any time, an amateur can drop all their chips across the line in a bluff for the pot.

This is called a donk bluff because only donkeys make it. They have no feel for the texture of the board, no reads on their opponents, no idea of their opponents reads' on them and no inkling of what their table image truly is.

These bluffs are often successful, simply because of the lack of attractive odds. Even if a pro feels that the amateur is bluffing, calling a $500 bet into a $35 pot just seems like a poor idea. The pro has no problem cutting their small losses and waiting for a better spot to get the money in.

In Limit, the donk bluff will almost never work. With the bluff being $10 into a $35 pot, the pro can easily call on a read that the amateur is running a bluff. The risk versus reward equation of it being a profitable call is favorable.

So the idea that you can't bluff in Limit isn't exactly false, but it only scratches the surface of the truth.

Bluffing at Limit requires lining up all of the elements in the poker bluff equation flawlessly. You must align the texture of the board, your image, the perception of your hand and the perception of your read on your opponents' hand perfectly.
