IMO the forum needs a discussion of how to use pokertracker, Aleo spreadsheet, and hand-converter.

[/ QUOTE ]

Indeed. I was thiking of putting most of these as seperate headings in the sng. Not in the definitions section, but in the overall scheme of things, there will be some discussion, or link to discussion, of pokertracker, aleo, hand converter, pokerstove, twodimes, etc.

Bubble: The point in any tournament when there is one player more than there are paid finishing positions


[/ QUOTE ]

This is strictly personal preference, but, I'd rather something like, "The point in a tourney where most players start playing extremely [weak] tight because it's close to ITM and if the blinds are large the ability to steal becomes critical".

This is a little more significant in MTT's where bubble play often starts well before ITM+1 but it also comes up quite a bit in SNGs where a 10 player SNG suddenly starts playing like a bubble with 5 players left, particularly when the 5th stack is tiny.

Lots of good suggestions here.

You might also want to include a link to the 2+2 list of abbreviations (found towards the bottom of the green bar on the left side of the screen).

A lot of the abbreviations are listed there. You can keep your list to just S&G specific abbreviations.

Also one I have not seen. STT=single table tournament
