Lowstack poker at 888's micros cash games

Hello, i have question on cash games player,

I am micro turbos sng player from pokerstars, and wanna move on from pokerstars to 888 poker for some days/weeks to get HM2 free and as i heard traffic of tourneys is alot lower there i wanna add some micro cash games like 5/10 NL. as i am tournament player maybe i could play it only by agressive preflop AI and some postflop play with low stacking myself ??? i know that it would not be possible on tigther games but i've heard that games on 888 are so loooooose especially on low stakes ...
any advice on this ??

Thank you, Penthagoron

I;m not sure if 5/10NL is considered micro stakes and short stacking is never the most optimal strategy.

Cash game is not my specialty by any means but I was always under the impression that you should buy in for the table max and go from there.

most eople on 888 are bluffers and technically any cash games they are bluffers and try to catch cards which is sad watch the cash tables for around an hour before doing anything and youll see what cards are most often dealt on any site thats my advice .. first play the site and then play the player according to the site .. alot of sites deal the same flops alot and this is what you should be on the lookout for ...

What?

This is terrible advice don't listen to this. The sites aren't rigged, your just bad at poker.


In regards to the OP, short stacking is pretty straightforward. However, you will find that most strategies on this site are more tailored to full stack play.

You know, I should of just assumed that

But study deep stack cash game play, short stacking is not the way to be successful in cash games.

I can't believe I use to think like this once upon a time... Rigged bs etc... Just accepting your no good is better and willing to improve taknyoutt
