VIDEO DISCUSSION: Trikkur 36 - Learning to beat Micro Stakes Poker

[Trikkur]

**THIS THREAD IS FOR DISCUSSION OF Trikkur 36 - Learning to beat Micro Stakes Poker**

I play 6 tables of 10NL on PokerStars. I discuss what players should be doing in order to improve their game at the micro stakes games. I stick to my tight approach to the micro stakes that focuses on beating the games first, before trying to win big and get fancy.

nice video. I really liked it when I watched it first, u explain about 90% or even more of the plays u make, that helped me a lot to understand what I need to be doing at this limit.

Prior I was getting fancy all the time and got called-tilt-broke,
that stoped thank you

I'm very much enjoying your videos. It is a good reminder of the basics. I had to comment though... you run very well. If I'm remembering correctly, you had 3 or 4 pairs in a row, 2 of which hit sets. You check with a gutshot... gets there on the turn.

I was just wondering, "is this what it looks like when your hands hold up as expected." In the first couple of minutes, I think there was only one suckout (your 2 pair A4 vs villains horribly weak played AK)

I started to wonder if you were tossing away videos where you run poorly?

[Trikkur]

You've obvious not watched all my videos. I get beat in more than a few of them. I don't have enough time to throw away my bad videos and make ones where I run good.

hey Trik, thanks for the video.

I'm 3/4th the way through with it and this is the very first serious poker tutorial I've watched.

I have two questions. Why do you fold A6s to a standard open raise when you had position on the guy? I'm calling 100% of the time here in a deep stack cash game. You didn't explain it, is this a common leak for people?

Also, you said you weren't gonna get fancy at these stakes yet on the top left table you checked raised a guy with A4 where you had a gutshot I believe and right when the flop came you said, "I'm gonna checkraise this flop". What was your thinking here?

Also, I never really thought too much about stack sizes and how this changes how you play in a cash game with bet sizes, etc. Could you make a video focusing on this?

thx
