Didn't see it was NL5 but yeah same thing and same point.

I don't like the shove either, but it is not a terrible play if you did it knowing that you were in a coinflip situation at best. I play mostly live, but when I play online at the micro stakes I notice that it's hard to get action unless both players have a pretty strong hand. Therefore after a min-raise and re-raise I put him on something like JJ before I even read the rest of the thread. It's hard to get someone in that situation that has AQ or AJ in which case you would be a huge favorite.

You are right, it is easy to win little pots in these games as a lot of people play pretty straightforward and wont call bets unless they have a hand (Again this is from my experience and I don't play a whole lot of online cash games). But when it comes to raises, re-raises, and all-ins usually somebody is getting coolered. That's what I was reffering to.
