Right now I'm playing 5nl and buying in for $12.50, I'm rolled for 10nl but 5nl seems really soft so I'm going to stay for a bit longer
Anyway it is pretty much like 10nl when buying in deep and with lots of villains buying in deep.

Micro - I really like this idea. I might start doing this for 2nl so that I cover everyone at the table and when we GII we take all the fishies money.
Love the thread!

Yeah, winning 500+ bb pots vs fish feels good lol. Just need to be careful vs the better regs and make sure you have near to the nuts when going all the way.

How's fishy does FT seem vs Stars? I think I'm still able to get 1st deposit bonus so I'll prob wait till I'm playing 25nl again to make the most of it.
How many BI you going to shot take with?

OtIts pretty reg infested atm but had someone 3 barrel ace high vs me the other day so still fish about!
As soon as my deal me in bonus is cleared ill be back to stars though, less rake, more traffic, I can add in 16nl tables on there too.
I'll be shot taking with 5 bis for 25 I'm more than happy with 30 bis at 10nl so I grind til I'm there and anything on top is shot $

Yeah Stars seems to make sense for now, I like the software more as well.
Sounds good hope the 25nl shot goes well.

Hey Alfie - was thinking of starting a MicroCrushers Thread too. You beat me to it! Definitely IN!
Yeah, you can play more hands with good implied odds when deep, for example you can start profitably flatting 3bets to setmine or with decent SCs. You need better showdown hands in general and you can stack fish who think TP or 2 pair will be good enough. Also there is more room for making moves...you can do stuff like bluff check-raise flops or 4bet preflop without pot committing yourself.

Only thing i see is bet more on flop which i usually do (70-75% pot) but look so dry aside of the SD that want to give another card cheap to others, turn i do bet little more but probably need to bet to like $1?, because all the draws are there now, and river well vs 2 regs and 1 is usually passive so was sure was beat.
thoughts?. (please don´t say fold pre).
Hand 2.
BTN stats 35/16 3B:0 A:1.6 FCB:50 on 36 hands
Poker Stars $0.02/$0.05 No Limit Hold'em - 9 players
(two pair, Aces and Tens)
Hero wins $6.68
(Rake: $0.29)
Sure i´m afraid of AK or flush so not sure if i do need to bet on river and how much and still ok to call there and what is our limit. (fold pot/shove?) Again please don´t say fold pre.
Cheers.

Not sure if your being serious, or why your saying it, but hand 1....fold pre lol this is gonna be shit to play vs 2 or 3 callers, which is likely to happen at these stakes, even if the board comes all low we#re still not 100% comfortable as people will be flatting behind loads with like 88-QQ
As played you could bet a tiny bit more otf, which is nitpicking I know, but def bigger on the turn, I prob bet like $1 there at least, multiway we can get away with betting a bit bigger, as there obv more chance of being called, plus the final callers always going to get awesome odds if we go smaller, otr I think I c/f to that bet and call too, its ran out pretty shitty for us to be betting into 2 villains imo.
Hand 2
Flop and turn are fine imo, river I prob b/f about $1.70 though, we can prob get more value from AJ/Q.
Just my thoughts, prob not too accurate lol
EDIT: Pretty ****ing impressed with myself lol, didnt check spoilers til after I wrote this

What you think is the major difference on 5nl vs 10nl aside of fish/reg ratio, more 4b?.

havent looked at spoilers here, but imo in hand 1 bet much more OTT since 2 players are peeling vs you. river check/fold is great though.
hand two not sure why youre checking the river? triple barrel that bastard (~55% pot OTR) and fold if he comes over the top OTR. pretty sure villain would have an ace here and that can pay off 3 streets

These are my stats since going back down to 5nl recently, really pleased with the 7% 3bet, should probs tighten up UTG but I'm not losing from that seat so idk. And my PFR from UTG, MP and CO is very similar...MP is prob fine I just need to loosen up from CO and tighten UTG. CbetT higher than CbetF seems weird.
Any comments are appreciated

Not much at all tbh, regs slightly more aggressive, slightly less fish. First significant difference was when I got to 25nl. .
5nl feels so beatable it's ridiculous and I'm quite liking the deepstacked play...can't do that at 10nl without buying in for 25, which I'm def not rolled for.
Also I have this weird obsession with getting my lifetime graphs for all levels in profit, I ran and played so badly at 5nl when I played before cos I was a noob. Even though doing really well atm I still need another $150 profit to get back to zero! This isn't the main reason for staying there though, the ones above are.
