People dont seem to get it. I think its an ego thing. Micro stakes is for learning to play poker. You dont learn playing 8+ tables at a time. Get to 100nl and then worry about maximising earn per hour or whatever. Play enough tables that you can still think and make proper decisions. If you're into robot mode, you're not thinking.

Heck, my best $/hr has come 2-tabling. People way underestimate the value of proper reads v's stats. I was thinking about this just last night. Theres a big difference between '80% c-bet' and 'cbets almost all the time, but less than half pot if he misses, 2/3 pot with TP and full pot with better than TP' type reads. Stats dont give you that kind of info, you need to be able to pay attention.


PNLHE is good, but just be wary of getting too passive because of it. You're still playing micros, people still stack off too light, people do chase draws with bad odds (resulting in big pots), stuff like that. Its a tool, not the be all and end all of poker strategy. That said, you should enjoy it and have some eye opening moments reading it, along with a few "slap your forehead and say 'wtf, I should have known that already'" moments.
