I"ve never really bothered with cash games online too much, but recently started playing some micro stakes just for a bit of fun and to see how my game holds up.
At such small stakes I"m playing a lot of hands, limping where I can then either getting lucky, bullying or folding depending on my position. When I do get a hand I make sure I get well paid if anyone does call. I"m not too worried about how right or wrong my tactics/game is but would just like to get some replies to the following questions:
- Do you sit down to the table with the maximum buy-in allowed?
- Would you sit down at a table with some big stacks already there or steer clear and pick a table with fairly average/level stacks?
- Do you tend to go with a plan to play for a certain amount of time/hands or do you aim to double up/treble up then get out?
- Finally, if you are happy to reveal what level you tend to play it will give me an insight to peoples "goals" at different levels play
Thanks in advance to those who reply!
Just to add to my earlier post
1) Always sit with the max buyin, but there is nothing wrong with leaving if you get deep stacked and there are other equally deep stacked players at the table and finding a new table and buying in for 100BB. In a lot of cases this is good bankroll management
2) If you have bought in for 100BB and everybody has near too or at least that big stacks don"t make any difference to you unless you recognize them as strong players
3) Go in and play for a certain amount of time. I usually multi table for 90 minutes then take a 30 minute break.
4) 10p/20p and 15p/30p on Sky Poker - small player base and beatable regs. No tracking software though
