Re: Is SS2NL strategy playable at low NL games?
I haven't read SS2's NL section, but I have read the first version a number of times. Some of the things Doyle talks about in SS1 can work pretty well at low states NL. For example, betting the flop after you raise (even when you miss). This works pretty in most games as long your not a loose raiser. I have found betting str8 draws on low card flops in raised pots also works pretty well. I also like the emphasis on picking up smaller pots where possible (or probable) and using this money to freroll (with small pairs and connectors) in some raised pots.
Some places SS1 advice gets you in trouble (especially with uber short stacks at the table). For example you raise with AK in late position and get one MP caller with a short stack. Flop comes 49J. You might be better off checking as shorstack is likely to move in with any pair.
