Occasionally you can find real life poker limits at $2/$4 for Omaha and Hold 'Em and maybe a Stud game at $1/$2. The cyberspace gives you a whole lower spectrum of poker world, sometimes starting at $0.01/$0.02. (The site's main menu always informs you the available limits - just choose a game type and see the bottom of the list.) People refer to anything under $1/$2 as micro-limit and call anything from $1/$2 to $5/$10 as low-limit.

Micro-limits

In the micro-limits, the playing level typically isn't too high. These games tend to be quite easy to beat; good for boosting the ego of a skilled player. Players at this level are substantially more sociable than their bigger-monies counterpart on the higher-limit tables.



Low-limits

If you have played low-limits in the real life poker environment, the playing experience on the cyberspace should seem very comparable. The most visible difference is the quality of player. In the real life poker world, we encounter some really good players at the lowest limit games. They just practice to improve their skill and prey on the clumsiness of low-limit beginners.



Due to the mediocre playing style, low-limit online games are probably the most profitable place you can have when we consider the amount of profit you can make each hour relative to the limits.

Where to play?

Good places to start playing at low stakes cash games includes PokerStars, Party Poker and Aced Poker.
