Default First day at true micro

well im starting my first day today at micro...i can already feel the rush of a large again that kind of started to dwindle at .05/.10 [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

What are the suggestions for table selection minimum vpip, pfr etc?

I opened up 4 tables let them sit for about 30 minutes and picked the one with what thought were the juciest? stats...is that good enough? [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

What site are you playing? What are you using to decide what tables are the juiciest? You just moved up to which stakes, .25/.50? .50/1?

On the sites where I'm doing the best I choose the best VP%IP I can get. It takes a while to find one on Party, I'm noticing.

I'm moving to the party skins pretty soon and I have a few questions.
How exactly do you "watch" tables with PT auto-importing hands? This seems to be a very valuable thing to do before you choose a table(s).
Also when we discuss VP%IP, is that referring to just preflop or all streets? Thanks guys.

to watch a table simply open up the table
open your PT autoimport
then click the configure import of observed hands and add the party poker folder

then open gametime+ is what i use
and add one of the players sitting at the table...all the stats for that table will come in as PT imports the hands

As for the instant bankroll

www.instantbankroll.com is available to anyone who hasnt used party poker before. they give you a free 75 deposit and 25 more after 500 raked hands. feel free to put SupaBill as your referall if you check it out [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]


i've read a few posts that suggests the weekend are fishier...should I wait till the weekends to ensure the fishiest opponents and safest clearing or is it not that much different?

I wouldn't worry to much about table selection at the .05/.10 level. Just get in there and play your best poker. The competition is gonna be weak at this level no matter what, and if you do happen to get in a tougher than normal game, well then thats just good practice. I would instead focus on figuring out who were the tight players and who are the loose ones and play accordingly. Then add in another table or two when you get more comfortable.

You'll do just fine. I am curious about a few things, how long did you stay at .05/.1? Did you build up your BR for .5/1 with your .05/.1 winnings?

Ive been at .05/.1 for a little over a month I think. I didnt really keep track. I started with the $10 free deposit at pacific and have worked that up to a little over $70. Did the InstantBankroll offer from pokersource so they gave me the $75 at party.

This posts another question...obvious answer

Currently I have a bankroll of 125 with half at party half at pacific still. Should I wait till i have to proper bankroll to begin? I wanted to try and at least clear the 25 extra bonus at party before it expired am I risking too much without having the 300BB?

Last week I recieved $50 on party, THAT night I completed the $25 bonus and was only down 3BB. It is do-able.
