I have heard twice, from two different people on these forums (You, boz, and someone else) that SSHE does not apply to current on-line games. What gives?

Read it again.........I don't think that's what he said.

True, that's not what I said. That's what Babar says.
The problem is, the "default" player, especially at micro-limits, has changed, SSH still applies, but it is not the build-your-bankroll cookbook it used to be. Players are trickier (or at least more aware) than they were during the boom. The play described in SSH will still enhance your winrate, if applied correctly, but if applied incorrectly will put you on the freeway to busto. You're much better served with a more conservative approach to the game until you have the experience to know when to make the plays described in SSH.

I defintely agree w/ Boz here in these tougher game times. The conservative approach is best for quite a while for you if you want to win long term.
