"but to give advice to players who play all day every day at levels way higher is ridiculous, i will say again"
When did I advise anyone? |

The Calculator 10 Dec 22:08
I know it's not the same game - they are miles apart in terms of ability. And I have no intention of taking $500 to a table - firstly it's way out of my bankroll, and I'm happy playing at a level I know I can beat - and it provides a regular income. Look, poker players make money in two ways. One, their opponents make mistakes, and secondly, being able to exploit these mistakes. Good poker players are able to do this very well. So the more mistakes that happen at a table, the easier it will be for the good player. Where will a good player find the most mistakes - at a $1/$2 table or a $0.05/$0.10 table? I think it's pretty obvious that there will be more mistakes at the lower stake table. And if players are shoving/flipping/limping at the lower stakes table, I think a good player would have the tools to handle this. |

I wouldn't say that was advice, more of an opinion.
And if you play at much higher stakes all day every day, I applaud you. I am just a little surprised you got there, if you think five dollar poker is so tough to win at. |

Calculator is obviously right in this thread. Can't believe people are disagreeing with him/her. The problem with micro-stakes is that you'll never get rich, which is why people want to play higher.

Fill Tult should do a promo of Ivey playing a week at micro - turn a suitable profit and he nets a prize making it worth his time. Micro players get their rocks off, argument is resolved and excellent publicity. A win-win-win I'd say.
I'd have £100 on him NOT doing it - CALC is giving me 3-1. |

Works for me - and it would be great to play him.
Yep, and you can have 3 to 1. Couldn't cut the stake down to a tenner could you?? ;o) |
