The almighty micro shove

Heh. I enjoyed this. Sat down today to play some cash games - since I don't really have enough consecutive time to play SNGs recently - and was dealt AA first hand.

View hand in the re-player. Yes I know it's only $0.01/$0.02, but still - if I keep having hands like this, I'll be able to move up in no time :)

I hung around to take some more of this plank's money before he left. I really expected him to call my shove, seeing as he was getting very close to 3-1. Still.. he obviously wasn't thinking about odds up to that point, so why should he start now?

Some of the players at these lowest of the low limits are truly stupendously awful. I suppose they are playing for peanuts though, so I can't expect to encounter any serious skill. I'm finding the PokerStars 6 seat tables much easier than the 10 seaters on Paradise, so with any luck it won't take me long to move up to the $0.02/$0.04 level.

Since I'm currently buying in for $2, and I want a roll to cover 10 buy ins, I need to earn another $28 (14 x buy in) before I can step up to buying into the higher level with $4. I am hopeful I can do this in two months. Fingers crossed.
