Yes micro limits. I have started to play on line again and made the decision to start very small....01/.02 to .05 to .10. To build up my roll.

As a result, my style is very tight and aggressive. On play AQ or better in UTG or +1. The range opens up with all pairs on the MP. Starting with the HJ to the button I add all suited and unsuited connectors as an option.

Each time I enter the pot I will either raise or re-raise...around 3x or more. If someone raises 2x many players still call.

The question is this...since there are the same players night in and night out, I noticed they have stopped playing pots with me. They love to all limp in and then play from there. I hate limping and it is not uncommon for 4 or more to be in the pot at one time.

If they do get into a pot, they fold with a single bet.

Any advise on how to modify my style so that I can get action on my cards..and yes they play fit or fold style.

They're not adjusting to you, you're just imagining it.

Your post shows you should be more concerned with learning the basics of poker; your opening ranges are questionable and your approach in general is too broad-brush.

You're playing all suited and unsuited connectors? If you're routinely opening 23o then you have bigger problems than your opponents adjusting to you in some way.

Anyway, if they have adjusted by folding to your raises (which seems pretty unlikely at NL2) why are you not just raising - and therefore winning - every hand?

First of all thanks all for your time to comment.

Second:
Article and Thunder...It has always been my experience that when someone explains symptoms to another party there are usually more questions that need to be asked instead of forming an opinion based on those few sentences. It is obvious that neither of you have gone to see a doctor, have a kid, or even have a wife because they always have more questions after a statement...

When I said my range opened up to such and such,,,no where was it mentioned that this was always played, it means that it is a consideration to play. If possible playing range needs to be substituted in then so be it.

Also mentioned was in late position that playing suited or unsuited connectors was an option. Again no where was it said I always play 2-3 suited.

I would have gladly answered any additional questions you may have had to help give a more clearer picture so a productive discussion could begin.

Even a basic question like what is your VPIP and such to give you some idea of my style..but nothing like that.

While there are some observant regs in the micros who pay attention or use HUDs, the vast majority of players at nanostakes have no inkling of your image. They are only concerned with their own cards.
You don't need to do anything to "get action". If you've found you're not winning much recently, it's probably just due to variance in a small sample. Sometimes you get lucky and every time you pick up aces, someone has kings. At other times, villains are card dead. Just develop and play a solid game and grind through the boring sessions. We all have them, and speaking from experience, the moment I get bored and try to change something, I end up spewing.

OP, your stated ranges are extremely questionable as mentioned above. I suggest you get hold of some hand charts and play around with them, maybe post what you consider to be your default opening range.

That way you can get more specific feedback, without anyone having to guess what you mean when you do mention a bunch of hands that you probably shouldn't open and don't mention a bunch of hands that you probably should open.

EDIT

The most pertinent difference between posting on this forum and seeing a doctor is that we don't get paid to help you, so you should consider that the primary onus to communicate clearly is on you.

OP, if you think we should be asking for more information, why not just volunteer it in the first place? No-one's trying to make you look bad here; everyone is helping for free. Don't let your ego get in the way.

I did ask you a very important question which related directly to your initial complaint. I'll ask it again:

Anyway, if they have adjusted by folding to your raises (which seems pretty unlikely at NL2) why are you not just raising - and therefore winning - every hand?

so you're winning ~4bb/hand, or 400bb/100? why would you change your style? that is the highest winrate ever recorded

Maybe I'm a bit outdated and we've changed terminology. Wouldn't "fit or fold" mean that you wouldn't (couldn't) get action unless villain smashes flop? Do we really want action when we're (quite a bit) behind? Also, you both imply that you want and don't want action. If you raise 3x because everyone calls at 2x, why not "adjust your style" and raise 2x? I don't believe 2nl is flatting $.04 and turbo mucking $.06. I'm fairly confident that both those numbers are equal to most 2nl players. In fact that probably goes up levels. Atleast personally speaking, I'm just as likely to call off $6 as I am $4 on a 200nl table. As stated above, if they fold every time you raise, keep raising, because you've caught a table of unicorns. I'm honestly not trying to be abrasive. I think your real question is more along the lines of "how do I get action when I've made a hand". Just my opinion though, loads smarter than me here.
