At 2nl and 5nl I think this is a fine rule. It's gonna save the average nano stakes player from getting into tough spots that are gonna cost alot of money due to a lack of good postflop skills. The big exception is calling min 3bets to setmine as daviddem said.

At these stakes I'd rather get 99+, AQ/AK in pre vs villains we have reads on (assuming that since we're flatting because we're ahead of villains range, we can 4bet shove and get calls with worse enough, often enough for it to be profitable). I'm talking about solid reads ie; we have seen villain call shoves with Ax and/or small pps.

@ 10nl, from what I've seen from my short time there so far, the game changes enough that our postflop skills come into play more and flatting is gonna be better more often.

call.

lock thread IMO
General rules are what make a solid foundation for any thing someone is trying to learn. Whats dumb is thinking that anythng can be learned effectively without this solid foundation.

And who the fuck are you to call for someone elses thread to be locked?

Stfu and stay out of the thread if you have an issue with it.
