Hello,

This coming Saturday, me and my friends will be hosting a very low stakes tournament. Entry will be $5 only. We intend to have couples with no real poker experience at the tournament.

Do you think limit holdem will be effective for newbie couples? Personally, I think it will be easier for those guys if bets and raises are fixed. Also, we don’t like very quick eliminations. Any thoughts?

Thanks in advance!

Zemble,

Limit Holdem is a fantastic option for newbies. It allows for a lot of play and if they take a bad beat, they will not lose their stack in one hand. It also makes it simpler when the bets are fixed.
