When's the last time you played micro limit? :P
It seems to me that whenever I jump down to .50 / 1.00 it's an unbearable grind with a bunch rocks only playing the top 5% of hands.
As I go up in limits, especially when I play $25/50 or greater... my opponents are typically looser and play a more quality game overall.
Anyway, as it applies to this thread. I rarely go for the "sure thing" unless it's far greater than the risky choice. But when does life ever present you with a "sure thing" that even comes close to being as rewarding the risky alternative?
