on this super dry board i don´t see much sence in 3-betting the flop. just play it wa/wb


sorry, what does wa/wb mean?

Edit: I just figured it out, way ahead, way behind. How does that mean that I play it?

I wasn't sure whether I should read the silver articles yet, since I'm still only in .10/.20, and I wasn't sure whether such advanced strategies would be applicable in the micro limits. Do you suggest that I learn and apply these strategies even in .10/.20?

mh that´s a really good question. i would say it depends...
i would definately advise you to read all the silver articles now and try to use them.
with some of the gold articles i would wait till you are pretty confident about your game. e.g. the "preflop expert theory" might confuse you :)
