Hey ML folk-
First. I apologize for starting a new thread about this, but I'm an attention whore. /images/graemlins/smirk.gif
Second. I think a lot of the recent posts on reading and responding to threads and having people post their thought processes instead on one word replys have resulted in a lot of quality discussion going on, and less threads with 1 or 2 responses.
Third. To hopefully continue this trend I am posting this to determine if there is interest in a micro limit session discussion group. This is how it will work:
Anyone who is interested in participating is welcome, regardless of limit played, or real or perceived level of expertise. This idea orginally spawned from my (and others') continued difficulties in moving from 1/2 to 2/4. But, I think any limit will work (we're starting with 2/4 though /images/graemlins/smile.gif.
Someone, the nominated playah-of-the-week, will play a normal session of 2/4 between 100 and 200 hands or so. They will then circulate the full session hand history to all members of the group. Individual group members will critically review the session and comment on any and all hands as they see fit to the original playah. He/she will then forward to me the hand(s) with the most comments, be they consenting or dissenting opinions, or hands felt to be generally interesting or needing more input/decisiveness. I will then post these hand(s) in an annonymous fashion on the board once a weekish for further discussion. Designated "playah-of-the-week" will then rotate.
This will hopefully:
1. specifically help individual "group" members interested in having their play reviewed.
2. catch frequent, seemingly mundane marginal plays that often never get posted/reviewed.
3. provide hands to post on the boards that have already generated a discussion and likely involve issues people will enjoy reading.
4. sidestep the issue of "poster reputation" in which hands can be discussed independant of the expertise of the person playing the hand.
