Micro Grinder tip!
So today I finally made some result!
After playing some session where I only won about a buy in or two, today I played as optimal and perfect as possible. Catched a lot of bluffs, got in good and bluffed and the correct times. + VALUE BET.
Some tips to some fresh micro players:
If you open your A
T
on the button.
The flop: K
T
3
, then against regulars its often okay to check behind in position. Since they will probably often only call you down with a KJ, KQ, or maybe even AK they didn't decide to 3bet preflop. This has really been working out today, and I extracted some more value where I usually get none. Then it allows you get value turn and river, since there isn't that many scare cards in the deck.
Checking behind the flop or turn in position with showdown value-hands, allows you to extract more money on later streets.
Example:
(Should be betting bigger on the flop, like 0.30 or 0.35)

He would probably not called three streets of barreling, since his pair of nines wouldn't stand that much heat!
And my daily graph:

Now my bankroll is at $300, and I'm looking forward to grind it up to $400 so I can start up at 10NL safely.
