    I play 25 NL and 50 NL

    What are some good tips for being very profitable in these games. What are some tendencies of these players.

    Does a 3 bet mean a really good hand at these levels? and so on....

    Thanks for any advice

    3 bets are good hands 100% of the time. The 100% is evenly distributed between JJ, QQ, KK, AA.
    4 bets are either 89o 90% of the time and 79s the other 10%.
    These players flat raises from all positions with AKs and AKo 100% of the time.
    Check-raises are never top pair, two pair, or sets. The check-raises are draws 100% of the time.

    None of the above are dependent upon the player, nor do any of them change with game flow or the table's perception of you.

    There, now you can crush. I gave you all of the set-in-stone, universal, absolute answers that you were looking for.

    Respect 3-bets and 4-bets more from non-regs than from regs. Use position and take advantage of those who disregard position. Most players are weak-passive and telegraph you their range. Learn how to read hands.

    ABC TAG does fine at these levels. Learn to open your game up and start 3betting light and raising weaker hands postflop, aggression can crush at these levels vs non-stations.

    nah not at all. set mining can be super profitable at these limits where people will never fold an overpair.

    the amount of limping and multiway pots can get crazy at times too, so you can get some cheap flops with speculative hands

    If you get raised on the turn, almost always fold an unimproved overpair. Even AA.

    (this does not apply if the pot was 3-bet preflop.)

    If youre looking for a answer all crush the micros post, youre not gonna find it. No way around putting the work in. Get the experience, watch some videos, read some books (good ones, not freakin HoH generic ABC crap), post hands, discuss hands, etc. No way around this.
