Default Everything you need to know about microlimit poker

My past year's worth of poker study summed up in 9 lines:

1) Fold preflop.
2) Raise preflop.
3) Don't cold-call that.
4) No, don't check-raise the flop because you don't know who will be betting.
5) No, don't check-behind the flop because the pot is too big. This is a serious misapplication of the 'waiting until the turn' thing.
6) Just because the flush draws will always call doesn't mean you shouldn't get in bets with the best of it.
7) You have an Overpair/TP. Call down the turn check-raise.
8) Don't value-bet your flush draw on the turn with that many people. You're not going to get enough callers or fold equity.
9) YES, value-bet the river.
10) No, don't slowplay.

That was not directed at you. It was a statment of fact about tilt's game, and does not reflect the quality of your points.

You're absolutely right. #11 should be: No, don't slowplay.
