I also bet it because of the fold equity at this table and my position, of course.

Even at .01/.02 UB players fold too often. You would be amazed how many times one person bet into a large pot on showdown and all the other four folded.

I thought it'd be fun to play even looser than SSHE's LOOSE-table standards. I played every single suited hand and pocket pair, no matter my position, unless raised. Against raises I only played the better suited connectors, all pocket pairs, and the usual premium hands. By playing this way I only ended up playing 32% of my hands.

I have an extremely small sample, but I'm up 39.5 BB/100 over 200 hands. I also was more aggressive than usual on every street because of the fold equity on these tables.

It's a fun little experiment. I just think it's actually funny that the 0.01 bet with middle pair got those weak-tight monsters to fold (obviously bluffing the ace), and that the 0.02 bet on the turn finished the remaining guy off (the type that will call a SB and peel one off, but back off to the BB)..

That HH is priceless, if only for that! Nobody has an A, or a Q, or two clubs for that matter? If they had any clue pre-flop, they'd probably actually win some.

It's weird... at the .01/.02 tables, they are loose-passive pre-flop, and then weak-tight post-flop. It doesn't matter if it's checked to late position player who bets and gives 9:1 odds, they'll fold gutshots, middle pair, bottom pair, top-pair crap kicker, and all these other hands they should be AT LEAST calling with given the situation and odds.

When one of the tables broke apart, I decided I might as well bet every street as long as I had some type of draw. Like this powerful gutshot:
