Re: Jeez Louise
[ QUOTE ]
To follow up to this. Last night I spent about 2 hours doing nothing but responding to Small Stakes posts and I was astounded at how many threads had like 0-2 posts and less than 25 views. I responded to posts as far back as 3 pages behind, and some of those were only inactive for 3-4 hours! There were some very good discussions and threads that got buried simply because the forum gets littered with new hands so dang fast. By the time I was done responding, the first thread I had responded to was already at the bottom of page 2! It's obvious from the views that people aren't even bothering to go that far back to read, which is a shame. These are poker hands, the discussion doesn't become invalid or "old" after a few years, let alone a few hours. So, really, I encourage everyone here to try reading a full 3 pages back. Every thread. Respond to as many as you have questions on. Give advice. When you are done with that, and it took me well over 2 hours, then go back and post follow-ups in those threads you responded in if there are comments or questions to your posts. And *then*, post a hand or two if you still have a burning question. But many of you will learn far more from giving shitty advice to someone else and getting called on it, than you will from selectively posting hands that you know you played "sort of bad", but not "terrible". Anyways, if everyone did this, I think they would not only learn better, it would make the forum a more condusive learning environment with less clutter. Worry more about how you can learn from what's already out there and how you can contribute to other people's threads rather than the "please everyone help me on *my* hand" concept. It's a give and take, and the more you give, the more you get out of it. If all you try and do is take, you are just cheating yourself and clutting the forum to boot. [/ QUOTE ] |

Re: Jeez Louise
I'll grant you half. The other half you as much conceded in a conversation months ago, and I don't see the need to rehash it.

Re: Jeez Louise
Yes, and the converter has not even been removed. How 'bout that?

Re: Jeez Louise
The only time I'd check-call in a Clark Situation is when I had a decent flush (say 5th nuts) against a tight player who liked to bluff.

Re: Jeez Louise
Thank you for posting this, Clark.
The quality of this forum has taken a dive lately. I hope something like this will be a wakeup call. |
