Playing Limit to Increase Bankroll |

Hey guys, being a rather novice player of about a year I think i'm going to make a good decision in going from NL to Limit to increase my bankroll. Though I am confident in my skills, when I get into a big pot and i know the guy sucked out a flush or straight I have trouble throwing my top two pair down. My downswings seem to completely overtake my upswings and that is why i'm thinking limit seems much more "profitable"
I could use comments, suggestions, and or anything thanks guys.

It's just as hard to get back those extra BB's you spend with second-best in limit as it is NL, and the swings will probably be more frequent. Grinding in a limit game can be arduous.
In any event, welcome to the Dark Side.

Hah thanks, last night was just testing the grounds at differnt tables to see how i did. Did 5 tables at once as i feel limit is more playing the cards than it is in no limit. .25/.5 blinds. Was up in 4 and down in 1 so it doesnt seem to bad. We will see today when i have a big more freetime.

I read somewhere that NL is good for building a bankroll and limit is better for making a living/ Don't know how true that is exactly.

would make perfect sence... in NL all you need is one ridiculous month and you could almost triple your bankroll... I don't think i've ever heard of that from someone playing limit...
