Re: Full Ring advice
I actually don't get all the fuss about .02/.04 being nigh unbeatable. When I cashed out at Stars, I left 5$ in to play the nano-limits, and I was crushing them with over 10BB/100.
As long as you play tight preflop and aggressively protect your made hands postflop, there's nothing keeping you from walking away with all the other peoples' cents...
You just have to stick to some decent basic strategy, and value bet the hell out of your hands. Same goes with .05/.10.
They may not respect your raises, but as long as those are for value, they're not nearly drawing out on you as much as you think...
However it is true that, if you're new to the game, you're going to develop some bad habits (overplaying overcards, seeing the showdown too much, etc.). But one has to start somewhere, and as long as you try to keep improving your game, the nanos are as good a place as any to start...
If anything, you'll learn to appreciate bad beats, and avoid tilting. It's the occasional bad beat that keeps the fish returning to donate their money to you!!!
