Default Re: Micro Limit versus small or regular limit

[ QUOTE ]
Here are my thoughts. Say you are in a nine person table and you have A-A, and everyone before you goes all-in. Should you call? I say no. Although you have the better odds than any particular player, at this point your odds of beating the entire table are less than 50%.

Before proceeding, let me say that I'm not even sure whether this is a serious post or just a joke. In either case...

Keep in mind that you're getting 8:1 on your money to call with AA here. So, you don't need to win 50% of the time for this to be profitable; all you have to do is win a little more than 11% of the time here. That seems very attainable.

Microlimits are definitely beatable. You might get drawn out on a lot, but the pots are much bigger to compensate -- so even if you win a small number of them, you'll come out ahead.
