You either believe that by playing better than your opponents you will win in the long run or you don't. It is really that simple.

Read the micro limit and small stakes forums a lot.

This should be obvious... if 72o is the hot hand at the moment, start playing it. Tight/aggressive doesn't apply to online games where the winning hand is predetermined. Generally low cards are better to play because if your opponents have all the good cards, you'll be more likely to hit pairs and stuff with low cards. Thats how I make 5.6 BB/100 playing Pacific $5/$10.

Hmmmm. Me thinks that he kiddeth. However, in the off chance that he is being serious, do NOT, I repeat, do NOT heed his advice. This is the pathway to ruin.

Then how come I'm running over 10+bb/100 in over 45 hands??? Trust me, it works.

i don't care if you were to tell me that you were at 100BB/100 at anything playing 72o. I would never play it. And it's a horrible idea to promote doing so.

45 hands???? i really hope that you meant 45K hands, b/c otherwise, please re-post your results after a few HUNDRED more hands playing that same style.

Damn, I give in. I should just stop making joke posts all together before things get really out of hand.
