    Thanks for the input guys. And yes, JKDS, I know and I'm totally on board. I haven't posted much at all over the past year as I haven't really played all that much until recently, but posting hands will be a very regular thing for me going forward. Here's some more positional info about me....

    VPIP in EP: 12
    in MP: 18
    in LP: 26
    in SB: 40
    in BB: 14

    PFR from EP: 9
    from MP: 13
    from LP: 16
    from SB: 11
    from BB: 5

    Raise vs Steal Att: 6.6
    Fold Steal to Blind Reraise: 36

    Basically it looks like I need to tighten up in general and esp in the blinds, and possibly raise more often too? I can tell you that I almost never open limp. Sometimes I do in EP w/ AA or KK hoping to get raised so I can back-raise or shove. Not sure which stat would reflect that (I don't believe there's an First-in Raise stat in PokerTracker), but when I'm first to act, I'm almost always raising 3-4bb.

If you were on my left I would open a lot of CO's and more hijacks because I know that you won't be 3betting me light....
    I guess I usually 3Bet preflop (4.2%) only if I have premium hands; I'd say AA-QQ, AK, AQs, KQs is more or less my criteria depending on my position. And it's even a little tighter for 4Betting (which, btw, I do only 3.6%). Should I 3Bet more? Do you think?

    Really? It's high? Hmmm. Recently I've tightened way up in terms of seeing the showdown after losing my mind way too often when my TP or 2P busts to one of the 2 or 3 calling stations who stick around w/ draws to the river. The W$SD is still a problem bc I think I'm still bluffing too much -- something I've read I really shouldn't do much at all at these stakes.

    I like CBetting the flop (74%), but If I don't have solid pair or a good draw by the turn, I usually drop the hand; when a fish/nit raises it usually means business. Am I wrong in this approach? I guess I'm a little gun shy about double & triple barreling unless I know I'm up against a nit. After all, it's the micros.

    Any thoughts?

    I'm not an expert on 3betting -- my 3bet% is very low, too. But I have realized recently that I need to open up my 3bet range, especially against looser opponents that have such a small continuation range.

    Read this post for a great discussion on how and why you should open up your range: 3-Betting Fold Equity
