I have played on some of these tables with a new account but I find that they are not easier to win on as one might think, I feel that very few beginners actually play these tables by choice rather they are filled by new account holders with exspierience , the standard of play is as good as any to be found even up to 10 dollar stg level, do you agree?
also I find the standard of play on micro stgs to be in general as good as that to be found in higher stake stgs, I find it just as easy to play a 10$ stg as it is to play a 1$ stg, the standard oif play nowadays seems to be so high at all levels,

the lower tables are harder because the players are not fussed about losing so put in money with any 2 and seemingly always hit,not much better than a freeroll imo. gl all..
Yeah I agree with callie28, most people are very agressive and simply hope to be live... But of course there is very good small stakes grinders so beware Having an idea of how your opponents play is always good, even online! But don't make too many hero calls based on it tough

kinda stupid to go to beginners table to expect only bad players especially at small/ new sites. most of the players are regulars at other sites and hav joined the site because of a promotion/ bonus.

yeah the reason of the beginners table is usually people who has less than a month playing at that software but it doesnt mean they are actually beginners at poker also beginners tables are good cause in many softwares you get more points on that tables. well about what you said of stakes, at low stakes you see lot of people that doesnt care to lose 2 or 5 dollars with crap hand but at any stake you see them that doesnt care to lose any amount of money but fortunley in less quiantity. but it makes it harder in my opinion cause thanks to low stakes clowns the probabilities are in your favor most of the time so you can make lot of money easiest.
when i join a new site i always play the beginners tables its easy money most of the times, but there many sharks there thinking like i am................

low stakes sng's can be categorized as beginner tables np coz of the poker seen played regularly there.. i mean everything is good for a re-raise or a all-in. donking like there's no tomorrow and such, all that together really doesn't need much brains or poker know how to play. in a way u can call that "beginner". micro ring games i figure its a bit different, there's no need to rush things, blinds r constantly low, so u really get a grip at the game and with no poker knowledge its much harder to make a profit there in the long run.

Posted by ArcticBear: yes so calling them beginners tables is misleading to beginners!!
Yep, that's all ! There might be some really beguinners there, but the odds are the same as a regular table. Didn't know about beguinners tables giving more points like DevianTPokeR said, if so, seems like a good reason to look for them when we can

well they say for example "you earn 1 point for every dollar in cash tables and 2 points for every dollar i tourneys. and beginnesrs cash tabes pays 1.5 points for every dollar" its just an example but so so it is.

I often think the play on the lower limit table is way better than the higher, If you sit on the higher limit you get some regular players that play well but you get a lot of (i can only assume richer pleyers) chancers and there is no way their play can win long term I just started taking notes on them and then looking to see where they are playing. But this game will never cease to amaze me just when i think i seen it all something new happens.
