Micro stakes, possible to win money?

tiger_hall · #1 07-01-2007, 01:39 PM

I play 50nl at the moment while trying to build up a bankroll. I have been playing a lot lately and have come to the conclusion that there is no way to actually make a constant win at micro stakes. This is due to players being unbluffable and also calling oversized bets with draws. I am a very tight player and have a good knowledge of the game. Im interested in what others think though.

Yes. Don't bluff the unbluffable, and keep betting huge against players with draws. You can definitely win at the micro level.

with them being unbluffable it´s actually way easier to make money... that´s what i was trying to tell that other woodtheng guy or whatever his name is in another thread...

1. Don't bluff
2. If they call without odds it's ev+ for you

Move up to where they respect your raises.

If there is no money to be made then why do so many uNLers continue to play? I don't understand your logic at all and you should probably move down. The money doesn't come quick you need to work hard to win even at microstakes.

but they call without the odds and more than the odds give them they continually suck out.. i had one bloke call on the flop with K 10 and the board was 247 and hit running 10's now how can i beat this player when i have A7

i have won and moving down stakes anymore would just be a joke.. 50nl is bad enough... im saying this because you cannot bet people off draws even if you haev a good hand..
