| Seems to me that you may be trying to micro-manage your micro-bankroll...granted u had your pot odds figured, but in micro-stakes ring games, you sometimes have to stretch your odds out a bit. Donks often don't have the higher range hands you might expect in these ring games. I will sometimes call a 3:1 pot with a 4:1 hand, and seem to do ok. (my micro $/hr is in the black). Add some funds to your bank roll and try not to micro-manage.

![]() | I think the general consensus is that you should rarely fold Queens preflop, especially in micro limit poker. In fact, I don't recall to many situations where I've dumped Queens in High Limit Poker preflop. To make this kind of lay down preflop your read would have to be impeccable. Try not to over think situations to much, and give players to much credit for a hand especially in the micro limits. I know you were trying to protect your bankroll a little bit, but you can't play poker correctly with "scared money" sometimes you just have to put the money in with good hands and hope for the best (ie not getting cold decked or unlucky) Learn from your mistakes and try not to repeat them.

| Hey, learning from my mistakes is what I'm here for , right? As far as "scared money" goes, I'm not really afraid to lose it. I know it's small stakes and I can always reload my bankroll, but I'm definitely trying to protect it so I don't have to. I guess I just don't like to think of it as "scared," but regardless, I seem to be playing that way. Thanks for all of the advice guys (and/or gals). I'll keep it in mind in the future. |
