Been away from 2+2 for a while but was floored by the first three posts I read tonight.

In one Hero X/R three way with a flush draw plus OESD and then X/F turn for half pot bet on flush turn card. Surprisingly seems to be consensus of a good play.

On to next post. Hero wants to know if A6o is a good button open. Surprisingly that’s too weak to raise first in on the button in a 6max game.

Maybe next will be better...nope analysis of hand says we can get value from BTN who flatted our RFI when he has 6 combos of QQ.

Ahh noticed the title is wrong.

a6o isn't quite a slam dunk open like people think it is. The op who questioned whether it was an open gets more respect from me than the people who think they know everything. It would actually be good to fold A6o depending on your skill and who is in the blinds. The reason micros are still soft is because it's very hard to truly find solutions to problems by yourself which is how you become better than your competition.

No, Micro is very tough. Can't beat it. High stakes is easier. Try it!

Most people in that thread agreed that xf'ing the turn was pretty bad, including the OP by the end... what are you talking about?

Are people really making threads about this??????

I'm not a sucka for clickbait titles because I'm that cool, but I figured let's mix it up lol.

Was expecting some type of beat because of a weird line some microstakes guy took. Got floored by what I read.

First sentence is someone actually complaining about people looking to improve their strategy.

Let's see if the next sentence is better... Nope he names another thread where someone asks for help and complains about it.

Final sentence then... Nope complains about someone engaging in a discussion.

Only good bit of your post imo.

But seriously, people can’t learn without making mistakes / asking questions, it is impossible. Like you learning from the mistake of starting this thread.

These kinds of OP's just reek of insecurity. Just worry about your own game brother and you will improve.
