Can I win at the micros playing a LAG style?

Can I win at the micros playing a LAG style?
I’ve played 11k hands at 10NL playing 32/28 winning 11bb/100. I feel like my game is good and play a good style at these stakes. There are a fair reg TAG players who I exploit thats my reason for playing so loose.

Can I carry this on at 10NL and moving onto 25NL? Or do I have to tighten up to be more profitable?

Continuation Bets?

2010-07-22T05:15:14-07:00

I have a problem with them. I don’t like them. I usually just end up losing the money. If I miss the flop, I don’t like to bet, except for the occasional situational bluff and semi-bluff.

If you raised pre-flop and hit big, you are often going to check till the turn anyway. So your opponent isn’t necessarily going to “know” whether you missed or hit.

But some people seem to think a continuation bet is usually in order.

Any thoughts? Thanks.

Betting Terms for Beginners

2010-05-04T02:21:07-07:00

Call: A player may call a bet by putting an amount of money exactly equal to the bet into the pot. For example, if Tony bets $2, and Brian wants to call Tony’s bet, Brian must put $2 into the pot.

Fold: A player may fold his hand by laying down his cards, and forfeiting further play in a round of poker. For example, if Tony bets $2 and Brian wishes to fold, Brian must surrender his cards to the dealer, and will remain inactive for the rest of the round.

Raise: A player may raise a previous bet by putting an amount greater than the bet into the pot. A raise must be at least double the size of the previous bet. For example, if Tony bets $2, and Brian wants to raise Tony’s bet, Brian may put $4 or more into the pot.

Check: A player may pass his turn in a round of poker without taking any betting action, only if there are no previous bets in the round. This is known as a check. For instance, if Brian is first to act on the flop in a hand, he has the option of checking his hand, which will put the action on the next player.

2009-02-25T08:36:23-07:00

Anyone have some links to a good article or can point me to a good book, that discusses in detail the pot odds and strategy for pot limit omaha?

(I have Supersystem, but could use more detail).

I’m pretty good at the game, but need to know more on pot limit betting.

I find at the freeroll level, people are really bad and overvalue their hands, so I’m having quite a bit of luck winning S&Gs;, but I’d like to know more before facing better players.
