1.) This guy claimed to provide a complete guide to beating the micros. This falls in the same category as Phil Hellmuth's book claiming he was showing how to
Play Poker Like The Pros. Hellmuth is routinely mocked for that book. At least Hellmuth is a pro, while OP never actually beat the micros. He cashed out and quit, apparently.
2.) He claims you can beat the micros by only going for fat value and hoping there are enough calling stations to pay off your monsters. I don't remember it working in the pre-UIGEA era and I doubt it works now.
3.) I only started having a significant winrate when I
stopped playing like this. So I know the frustration of people who play like this and wonder why they are still not winning.
4.) If I saw alot of discussions of how to get beyond this sort of strategy, that would be one thing. Instead, anyone who asks about micro strategy is sent here. Like I said, much of the information here is necessary, but not sufficient to beating the micros.
