Pros at micro limit on Full Tilt

 | 1 min

A couple of times I’ve been on Full Tilt and seen Kenny Tran, one of their pros playing at the 5c/10c limit tables. The first time I saw this, there was only a single table full at that limit and it had a waiting list of 36 people. All the other tables were empty and I couldn’t find anyone to play a game with.

Why does someone want to play against a pro? I know 100% that he’s way better than me and is totally going to take all my money. Since my aim is to ultimately make money playing poker, why would I go against someone like that? Doesn’t seem very sensible.

I tried to start a table, but I don’t feel very comfortable playing so shorthanded yet so I soon abandoned it. I decamped to William Hill for half an hour or so but pretty soon that table evaporated and I ended up heads up and then left.
