So I decided to try microstakes today and found a table with a few fish or maybe I am the fish. I soon discovered anything above 5bb is a pretty immediate fold so all of my bets have been lower than what I am used to on monsters. I got AA 3x times, KK four times, and QQ three times. Each time they were folded to (never saw a flop) or cracked with crap except AA.
Starting with the first AA. I am utg and raised 5bb and villian flatted everyone folds. Junk flop and I checked (last 5 times I bet villian folded so I was hoping villian would bet). Villian bet 6bb so i 3bet and villian insta folds. Should I have just called?
This is my second pair of AA and this is kind of what has been happening when I want people to put money in the pot. In CO and raise 4bb and everyone folds.
Then my last AA I finally get action except villian gets a set. I just lost a large pot with my KK being cracked and before I could refill my stack I got the AA.
The times I got KK and QQ it is played similar. Seems my monsters are not winning like they used to.
Am I doing something wrong?
