Our moderator has problems with players going all-in

[the shadow]

I've been looking at a lot of posts on heads up play and came across this HU NL post by from citanul (http://archiveserver.twoplustwo.com/showflat.php?Cat=&Number=595760&page=&view=&sb=5&o =&vc=1), which you and even he might enjoy reading:

Recently, I've been attempting to work on my heads up game . . . .

An interesting phenomenon has taken over many of the players when they are short stacked.

It appears their game plan becomes (and this is with stacks ranging from 10 to probably about 400 or 500, depending on the player) "go all in."

Now, I'm a little ashamed to have to say so, but I've been having more than what I would assume is my fair share of trouble with this.

To be fair, that was one of citanul's first posts back from his journeyman days, long before he discovered this forum. My educated guess is that since then he's discovered how to give his opponents their own fair share of trouble. /images/graemlins/cool.gif

Because he's "the shadow"?

The Shadow = black, get it?

[maddog2030]

Shadows are black.

[Nicholasp27]

any username that contains "shadow" automatically becomes black...it's built into the forum software...

[maddog2030]

I think we all responded within 20 seconds of each other.

Despite my newness to the forum I was gonna see if I could convince people to give me blue...then I realized I could just click on my name and it stayed blue. That was a great day...

...my life is sad.

This went nowhere when I suggested it before, but I'll try again. It seems to me that some posters deserve their own colors. To get it started, here're a few suggestions:

<font color="blue"> blue </font> bluefeet (duh!) or strassa, at least if it's duke blue and not that [censored] carolina blue

<font color="red">red</font> che or maybe apathy

<font color="pink">pink</font> dare i say yugo?

[wulfheir]

[tigerite]

Yeah..I guess that'd be ok. But the thing is, no matter how much everyone wants me to be, I'm not *actually* gay...or from Yugoslavia....or communist....

I'm just some punkass from Cali who looks like Peja (or David Schwimmer if you're Daliman).

Sounds good to me, what do you think citanul? Maybe a different shade then the Sklansys?

Its unfortunate that there is absolutely no way to get better heads up. Basically your heads up game stays the exact same from the first hand of poker you play with no chance of improvement while the rest of one's game can improve significantly through experience, hard work and study.

[citanul]

nah, i don't think that's it. i think i just suck.

Really? News to me. I've made great strides in my heads up game.

i think what vinyard meant is that anyone who is not me can learn hu, while i can study and learn all other parts of the game, but suck heads up.

Now that my luck box has been re-tuned apparently I need to take the sarcasm-o-meter to the shop as well.
