Micro Limit Stud

[Gambler101]

I am currently reading Seven Card Stud by Sklansky. Although my knowledge of stud has sharpened, I am unable to beat the micro-limit stud games on PP. I typically call the bring-in bet with drawing hands, and raise with pairs for isolation. I request some useful advice regarding micro-limit. Of course I have faced outdraws, but such instances involve stud.

Thanks,

Post some specific hands and we can help you more. What is the structure of the game you play?

[kschellenger]

A lot of the concepts in books won't apply to microlimits because they often have real high antes. Post some hands, read the posts, and read some of the older posts.

Well, I have two accounts: Partypoker and Pokerstars. The players in PP tend to be quite loose, whereas PS players are rather tight. The sturcture in which I play is:
PP: $.25 ante $.5/$1
PS: $.05 ante $.5/$1

Which game do you stud players recommend? It seems that PP is difficulty to beat, since there are 3-4 players in every pot.

The PP stucture at this level is terrible. Play stars until you are comfortable to move up to 1/2 or 2/4.

The PP structure at 1/2 is still not great. I'd suggest that you don't play there until you're comfortable playing at 2/4.

I played at PokerStars today in a stud game, $.05 antes $.5/$1 . I read Part 4: Playing in Loose Games in Seven Card Stud for Advanced Players by Sklansky and it I found it to be helpful.

I have two accounts, PokerStars and PartyPoker. I am considering transferring my PartyPoker bankroll over to PokerStars. Please comment on the soundness of this move.
