Message: [QUOTE="Dogfish44, post: 1300229, member: 58954"] [b]Micro Limits... Utter rubbish.[/b] Having been playing the Take 2 Promotion for 23 of the 25 required days now, at 1/2c level, I have come to the conclusion that the phrase 'micro-stakes' is absolute bollocks. I re-deposited $30 on Sept 2nd and started playng the T2 Promo on the 1/2c micro stake tables, the first 5 days were pretty easy and even profitable to the tune of an extra $3 in my bankroll. However, having reached the $15 mark I have now noticed that the level of competition and/or the cards dealt have completely screwed me and I now only have $11.56 left for the remaining two days, and having to really grind it out just to get my FT Point for the day, meaning that at the end of the promo and claiming my $50 (assuming I don't lose any more!!) I will only have in the region of $60 in my bankroll, and not the $80 I had hoped for. Firstly, as this post implies, micro stakes... an interesting concept in NLHE, especially when raising to 3xBB and then having some donk go all in for $2.77 (or more) in a 1/2c game!?!?! Folding my A5s I then see that my nemesis is bluffing with 6,2,o. Secondly, flopping the full house doesn't mean you've won the hand... I'm dealt pocket J's, the flop comes 10,10,J... I bet 2/3 the pot, I'm called. Turn card 8... I bet again 2/3 pot... called again. River card is Q and my nemesis goes all in... I think he's bluffing as I've already made it as clear as possible I have a monster. So I call only to see he has QQ. I've just lost my $1. I was not happy to say the least. So back to my point... How is it possible to play Micro stakes in a NLHE cash game? [/QUOTE]
