question Is nitty micro-stakes play still the move, or is that advice cooked?

Every time I jump into the low-stakes tables, half the advice floating around still seems to be basically: fold heaps, wait for premiums, print money. I reckon that's a bit cooked now. Too many players are limping rubbish, calling way too wide, chasing anything with a pulse... if you're just sitting there waiting for aces all night, you get blinded down and bored stupid.

For me, the better results have come from leaning on position way harder, value betting thinner than feels comfy, and punishing all the passive stuff instead of trying to play some textbook robot style. Not saying go full maniac and punt it off like a drongo, but the super-tight game plan feels old unless the table is completely feral. And the whole "never bluff at the micros" thing gets repeated way too much too. Bit lazy, that. You don't need wizard-level moves, just decent spots and a read on who actually hates folding.

What are you lot doing lately on the apps and sites? Still playing dead tight and waiting for monsters, or opening it up a bit and putting pressure on? Keen to hear what's actually working for people, especially in small MTTs and low cash where half the table seems to be there for a laugh.

What helped me more than opening wider was getting brutal about who was in the blinds and who'd already shown they'll call three streets with middle pair. I used to fire the same little stab into every flop because I had position and it just turned into lighting chips on fire multiway. Once I started checking back more junk, taking delayed bets on turns that actually changed things, and making notes on the sticky callers, my results got a lot less swingy. Sounds boring but table selection matters heaps too, some tables are just a slog and not worth proving anything on.
