What is the best way of table selection for micros? Currently 2NL and look through tables for players with same amount of $ i buy-in with. And never buy-in on a table with a player(s) with $7-$8 so i make sure i dont get bullied.

Personally i dont think you have to table select for 2nl. All i would do is make sure most of the people have at least $1 on the table. Also, i would not join a table where 3+ people are in for more then $5. If there are a lot of people that are deep in the game then it probably means that they are solid players for 2nl.

I look at % saw flop aswell as stack sizes. I generally try and get 4+ people with a 100bb stack.

I look for deep stacks + a higher % of players who saw flop.
other than that, there's at LEAST 2-3 fish at each table.

If you believe you can be bullied in a cash game, I don't think table selection should be your priority.

Low percentage of players per flop.

And also just make sure the table isn't full of people with -$1.

Not this, u mean high flop%, right?

The higher the flops seen % is the fishier is the table ofc since they have wider hand range

Just the opposite, you want a table that loves to limp and therefore has a high % to the flop. This allows you to abuse the limpers when in position with good starting hands. Collect a lot of limper's money and hopefully get HU with best possible starting hands.

Absolutely. You want to be looking for a high% for this very reason.

Also, avoid shortstackers.

I buy-in to the table at $2. Will not enter a table with someone that has a stack of $11. They are probably really agressive since the already abouled the max buy-in at the table. So i can see them pushing me all-in at any moment when I am on a draw. when I could easily see the rest of the board cheaper if someone is playing with near the same stack size as i do.

Sizes of the stacks should mean nothing to you. You arent going to get bullied if you have a decent hand you will play regardless of how many they have, this isnt tournaments.

You really shouldnt be worried about anyone being decent at 2nl. Play abc and yo uwill be fine

I've actually found the opposite to be true more often than not (I'm playing primarily 10NL). Someone with a double stack may or may not be good. Someone with a really big stack though is either really good or has gotten lucky (and been fairly aggressive as someone else pointed out). Given the percentage of really good players at the micros, which do you think is more likely?

It's not uncommon that when there is a person with a 3-400 bb stack at my table, they are still a loser for the session, they just got stacked 5 or 6 times with their bottom pair before they sucked out a few times.

Maybe this is selective memory though, anyone else agree?

I play 2NL but like to 16-24 table since the ABC/robot/mega nit play is super profitable. I start by looking for any tables with 40%+ players to flop and 8 players seated. I join those and start playing while I load up other tables that maybe have 30% players to flop. If it is under 30% I try to avoid it, however when you move up from 2NL you'll notice that the % players to flop goes down, but no matter what you will want a table with the most players to the flop since that means their hand ranges are wider.

I usually buy in fro 75BB and stack size of the other players isn't really a huge deal to me unless there are more than 2 or 3 shorties. In fact, a guy with $11 may call a 75BB shove on the flop since he is playing so deep. A lot of my winnings come from pushing TPTK pretty hard since people usually call down anything with Ax or 2nd pair. So there is a lot of money to be made there, however I'm not comfortable playing a 100BB+ pot with just TPTk, so usually after I get up to around 150-200BB I'll leave and find a new table.

Also, if you use HEM you should have the table averages at the top. If my table falls below 30VPIP I will usually leave. The PFR average for the table is usually like 5-10%, but even if it gets up to 15-20% it doesn't necessarily mean you have to switch tables.
