Message: [QUOTE="gustav197poker, post: 5924408, member: 393841"] I think in micro stakes and 2NL it is necessary to make some adaptations to the game. In preflop you must analyze how sticky your table is. Since the cost of seeing a flop is relatively cheaper, it will be more difficult to steal from the callers from the blinds. Also in this case, our blind range is by definition wider than of the CO and BTN, because they are calling for the opening of a tighter position, the MP. Therefore, in their ranges there could be some strong hands, which with their calls are inducing an isolation bet. Of course they could also call with dominated hands. But the question here is how good isolation is for us and if we will actually achieve such an effect in a setting like this. If we think our hand is strong enough, we should choose a very large magnification size here: 1) To make up for our rank disadvantage. 2) To achieve isolation. The problem is that we have an effective 80bb stack and that conditions the SPR a lot. In addition we do not have enough evidence to make us think that we will achieve the reduction of players. For all that, I think that a push preflop would get more folds and if we think our hand is very good, trying is justified, when we are in a sticky environment. As played we hit the flop with 2 other players. I understand your overbet, but we shouldn't do it. Simply with our hand we are eliminating the combos: AQ and KQ of diamonds, because now neither the villains nor we can have them. That is to say, we are not achieving a profitable play, since now we unlock more suitable combos: Ace high, which work better as bluffs catcher for the villains. Ultimately we are not getting enough fold equity, with our flop overbet. And if we add to that that this is a 3-way pot, our bet becomes even more vulnerable. In these cases we must get to the showdown in the cheapest way possible. Greetings. [/QUOTE]
