anyone else feel like players online are way better than expected

been grinding micro and low stakes online lately and i swear the average player is just sharper than i remember. like, yeah there's still obvious fish sometimes but even then, most people aren't just punting stacks. folks seem to actually have some clue about ranges and position, even bluffing in spots that used to be dead giveaways.

might be that everyone's got access to solvers now or maybe i'm just noticing the patterns more. live play always felt a bit softer to me, especially at the lower limits. online, i keep running into these weird bet sizings and thin value bets that throw me off. either way, it’s messing with my confidence in spots where i used to auto-pilot. definitely getting humbled but trying not to get tilted about it. anybody else noticing these trends or maybe i just gotta tighten up my own leaks.

Yeah, the online micro stakes are way tougher now, it’s not just you noticing. Try reviewing your own hand history and mix in more patience, feels like that's what separates folks who just punt from the ones actually pushing edges.

Definitely feels like sharper lineups are the new normal online, so I just size my sessions way down and treat it like roulette - small, repeatable bets keep me sustainable. Anyone else finding that taking the edge off with limits actually helps the learning curve?
