About Crushing the Microstakes
My name is Nathan Williams but I am better known in the online poker world as "BlackRain79." I have also been a professional poker player for over 10 years now.
Crushing the Microstakes is my complete guide on how to dominate your competition at the micros. However, it differs significantly in one key way from every other poker book out there.
As the author, I actually am the biggest winner ever at the stakes discussed in this book.
This is why Crushing the Microstakes has now helped thousands of people start beating these limits.
Having played over 5 million hands with the highest winrates and winnings ever recorded at the lower end of the micros puts me in a unique position when it comes to writing a book about it.
I don't need to speculate. I know exactly what works and what doesn't.
There is a common misconception out there that everybody breezes through the micros and moves on to greener pastures.
Some do. But many don't.
Why waste your time spinning your tires at these stakes for years and years on end? You should be printing money when playing them.

Intended Audience
Crushing the Microstakes is primarily targeted at NL2, NL4 and NL5 6max, Zoom and full ring poker games online. It is also recommended for $1/$2 or $2/$5 if you play live along with low buyin tournaments.
It was written for beginners and people who are struggling at these stakes in general. Crushing the Microstakes provides a solid foundation for higher stakes as well but does not represent a complete guide for those games.
My other two books Modern Small Stakes and The Micro Stakes Playbook are targeted at NL10, NL25, NL50, NL100 and NL200 6max, Zoom and full ring poker games online. $5/$10 or $10/$20 if you play live along with mid stakes tournaments.
If you are already crushing the lowest limits with ease, then you might be better served to start with one of these books instead.
Crushing the Microstakes is an A to Z blueprint on what to do in every single situation imaginable at the lower stakes from what hands to play, when to bet, when to raise and so on.
It is written in a style that is as linear and straight to the point as can be because the whole point of the book is for you to take these strategies to the tables and start crushing these games for yourself!

Synopsis
Crushing the Microstakes is an A to Z blueprint on what to do in every single situation imaginable at the lower stakes from what hands to play, when to bet, when to raise and so on.
It is written in a style that is as linear and straight to the point as can be because the whole point of the book is for you to take these strategies to the tables and start crushing these games for yourself!
In fact, I love it when people send me their graphs like this:

Can you spot when he started reading the book?
Results like this are really the entire reason why I wrote this book.
Simply put, Crushing the Microstakes turns breakeven and losing poker players into winning players. It teaches you how to finally start making a consistent profit in this game, even if it is only a small amount for now.
Because winning is simply winning. It is the one true measure of success in this game. And let me tell you, poker is a heck of a lot more fun to play when you consistently make money from it!
From the total beginner to the experienced grinder Crushing the Microstakes instills a fundamentally solid TAG strategy for maximum profitability in 2024 micro stakes poker games.

Nathan “Blackrain79” Williams has played six million hands of small-stakes No-Limit Hold’em online with some of the highest win-rates in history. That’s the experience that he brings to bear in this book and because it’s so current, and specifically geared to the madness that is micro-stakes online poker, it stands apart as a unique tool for beginner online players.
As a whole, the book provides a terrific primer for the novice player who has some experience and perhaps even has spent time reading other strategy books or the forums but hasn't figured out how to apply those ideas.
I believe had I been the owner of Nathan's book when I grinded these stakes it would have helped me improve my game at a much faster rate enabling me to move up faster. I would recommend buying it without hesitation.

I give Crushing the Microstakes a big thumbs-up for players who are just starting out and even for players who haven’t yet figured out that there isn’t a single perfect strategy in poker.

At a 30$ retail price Crushing the Microstakes could easily pay for itself for the novice player just getting into online, and for the player still struggling to do better than breakeven at 2nl, 5nl, or 10nl.

Crushing the Microstakes is the book that got me started on the way to becoming a winning player. It will help you develop a good understanding of all the important concepts needed to play winning poker. It won’t teach you how to crush aggressive regs at NL400 but for learning how to beat the lowest stakes there is no better book out there.
