Sky Poker Forums is upgrading its look! Stay tuned for the big reveal!
Need a break from it. Play the 7.15 & 7.45 deepstacks most nights and basically the standard of play if awful. Try playing the correct way but its impossible to do so against players with no fold button. I know there's guides on here to crush the microstakes but sorry it doesnt make a difference if the player who has limp called your raise hasnt read the same book. Plus, my anger in chatbox is getting out of hand so think its time for a little break to recharge the batteries.

1281, perhaps try working on your own game before just slating the standard of play in a micro stakes tournament where players are just having a bit of fun. Also, be careful not to fool yourself too much. You might think you're playing well, but odds are if you're struggling to turn a profit in micro stakes games, and then bashing your opponents on the forum, you're probably not playing quite as well as you think you are. Good luck recharging the batteries.
i don't know whether i can help or not. here's my guess. it isn't meant to be critical, but food for thought. it is more likely to be wrong than right. but it might be right.
it might be that you are a reasonably competent player experienced in traditional games and knowledgeable about things that were most important 10 years ago. however, the game has changed. you are still playing a test match style in a 20/20 match. you may still be a competent batsman but you cannot succeed unless you strike out more frequently. the small stakes you play has only magnified this change.
you are still as good as player as you ever were, but you need to grow now.
good luck.
hi 1281. my point is that the game is no longer what you want it to be. all will be resolved when you apply your skill and experience differently in this new environment.
Hi, Rob isn't it?
