You need to select your sites as carefully as you select your tables.

Here is a radical approach to playing micro-limit that works for me

If you are trying to build or rebuild your bankrollon micro-limit tablesI have a suggestion. Play sites you normally don't play at (where you are NOT known. Then:

Play looser

Not tighter

Not Stupid

Play rags on a .10/25 table and see EVERY SINGLE unraised flop.

Get a little aggressive when you hit the flop

Limp everytime. Call a raise if you have something. Re-raise HARD to isolate once in a while. Fold if you don’t

Pretend it’s a play money table. Forget that i'is cash.

Treat the quarter like it’s an ante. Just limp every single time and fold or raise occasionally to confuse people. Once you commit bully the small stacks without mercy. If they bought in for $5 they are playing with scared money. Believe me theythink hard about $2 bets and fold to $3 bets.

I tried this today for a couple of hours playing 2 tables (on 2 different sites) while I was playing a long MTT.. I admit that I bought in for the full $25 and reloaded every time I lost a penny at the beginning. Prety soon I hit a couple and never looked back.

But I made over $40 an hour when I was finished. It was kinda mindless but it did work while I was being a TAG in the tournament. It let me resist the urge to get cute during that.

I had a couple of amazing flops that really made some money. I wish I’d thought to get the hand histories. I flopped a full house, 2 flushes, a couple of raggy straights, 3 sets of 10s or better and a bunch of PPs. You have to understand that these were at tables averaging over 70% seeing the flop so when I hit I had lots of players betting. The full-house had 2 players all-in and I made about $45 with it so that really helped. I did get AAKK busted by a rivered flush and that cost about $15. I also got some hands good and cranked up pre-flop and then folded and watched the bloodletting.

My point is that I did something completely different and it was fun and profitable.
