I know the stereotype is that no one is good at the micro levels, but in my experience there are players that know what they are doing even at 4NL so representing a big hand on the turn may work.

Does anyone try this (float flop, c/r or just raise strong the turn) at 4NL or 10NL? Does it work?

I've tried it a few times lately (only against LAG regs that I know are capable of folding) on the right kinds of boards and it's worked. I am generally a passive player, and only do this infrequently so that helps to sell the bluff.

The first time it backfires I might regret it though. You guys have any experiences with this? +EV or just spewing chips?

It's a REALLY expensive way to bluff so watch overdoing it or doing it without some kind of equity to fall back on.

I dont find any respect for any raise pre or post flop on micro tables.....

I agree, in general I think expensive multi street bluffs at micro limits is just burning money. Bet when you have it, protect your money when you don't = profit at those levels.
