akishore 0 Posted November 8, 2005 Share Posted November 8, 2005 i will play one session (say... 50 hands, or 100 hands) at some site, some limit. maybe party .50/1, maybe party 2/4, maybe stars .25/.50, maybe pacific 2/4, whatever.during the whole session, i will reveal my cards to everyone here via an AOL/AIM chatroom or maybe a thread or some means, and y'all can either: a) sweat me and discuss any interesting hands after, or B) play together every hand.by that second option i mean that i won't actually do any action until we reach a consensus (most options should be obvious and trivial... fold 92o, raise AQ, raise TPTK on the flop, fold a gutshot with bad odds). obviously if time is running out and you poker nerds are arguing, i will default to my own wise-as-an-owl decision.mainly the purpose is to spot and fix the BIG leaks in anyone's game. i.e. if there are 15 people in this, 14 of them are saying i should fold this hand on the turn, and you're alone in saying "RAISE!!" or "i usually call this down," you're PROBABLY wrong, and you've PROBABLY found a BIG leak.any interest?aseem Link to post Share on other sites
Mattnxtc 0 Posted November 8, 2005 Share Posted November 8, 2005 could be interesting...problem with a group consensus is that everybody will have to pay pretty close attention to make sure they get thier vote in quick enough for the hand. and if they are like me they are easily gonna be distracted. I do like the concept of getting together with players and discussing hands though via aim type mediums as there can be much more free flowing discussion Link to post Share on other sites
Actuary 3 Posted November 8, 2005 Share Posted November 8, 2005 so, I help you, Aseem..but what's in it for me? :-) Link to post Share on other sites
NortonFan 0 Posted November 8, 2005 Share Posted November 8, 2005 Yea, I would be in for this. Nice idea. Link to post Share on other sites
speedz99 145 Posted November 8, 2005 Share Posted November 8, 2005 My vote is for:tonight at 8 or 9 ESTParty Poker$1-$2 Link to post Share on other sites
brando 0 Posted November 8, 2005 Share Posted November 8, 2005 I really really like this idea. However, do you think it's possible to do with 10/15 people? Those timers move fast. I wouldn't suggest a thread it would have to be done with some chat client where we are all in the same room. Link to post Share on other sites
Actuary 3 Posted November 8, 2005 Share Posted November 8, 2005 My vote is for:tonight at 8 or 9 ESTParty Poker$1-$2yesmaybe we limit it to 3 people per street..perhaps we'll need to alternate hands we vote on so we don't have 6 on each play?...it will be an eye opening experience Link to post Share on other sites

psujohn 0 Posted November 8, 2005 Share Posted November 8, 2005 Sounds like fun. I tried to suggest something like this in general strat but no one seemed to like my vague idea as much. If you're doing it I'd love to participate. Link to post Share on other sites
pokerplayer24 0 Posted November 8, 2005 Share Posted November 8, 2005 I'd be up for it. Even though new WSOP episodes are tonight. Link to post Share on other sites

As long as only one of us sits at the table to play it's not illegal...maybe a little immoral. Link to post Share on other sites
Actuary 3 Posted November 8, 2005 Share Posted November 8, 2005 hate to see Aseem accidentally typing his hand to the chat window on Party!also... Fuckin Guest..go away!or better yet, sign up!sorry, I'm getting the shakes, 90 minutes before I can go home.NO GUESTS ALLOWED in this deal tonight.imo, Aseem, you are setting yourself up if you ope the discussion to those we don't know/trust. PP usernames, etcAseem... I'm not likeing this for your concern. Link to post Share on other sites
speedz99 145 Posted November 8, 2005 Share Posted November 8, 2005 Yeah, let's not do this tonight. Aseem seems to be losing it. Link to post Share on other sites
finztotheleft 0 Posted November 8, 2005 Share Posted November 8, 2005 What I would love to see happen is.....9 of us take over a table, everyone shows their cards at showdown, someone copies all hand histories to be evaluated here afterwards. That would be my ideal tutoring session. No discussion at table, so the site should not have any issues with collusion Link to post Share on other sites
Actuary 3 Posted November 8, 2005 Share Posted November 8, 2005 a strategy table..We do those, and discuss while playing.But they really aren't useful for strategy.This idea is good.But maybe we shouldn't post all hands; but not sure how to chose them.Anyone with a particular question could post and those involved can explain.

finztotheleft 0 Posted November 9, 2005 Share Posted November 9, 2005 I had played at the strat table once before....and enjoyed the conversation with Custom, Steve and others who were there, but there just was not much analysis of hands going on.....it is hard to do at the rate of playing....and I think it was 1/2 which was a little rich for my blood (especially for playing with people better than me ! ) Link to post Share on other sites
