The Pygmalian HUSH challenge (less than NC)
 
Here's a brilliant idea. Some of our real expert players here should have a little challenge whereby they select a few mediocre to poor players, and see who can transform them into the biggest winners.

I nominate myself as the first test subject. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

(Sorry to clutter, but I'm bored at work.)

I actually love this idea. Maybe it's because I'm a n00b that needs work.

I'll be a guinea pig as well. I think we'd need to figure out something to give the winner. Since most test subjects will probably have relatively small bankrolls and thus won't be able to offer much of a monetary reward to the experts, maybe we can just pay them in oral sex.

We don't need to pay anything to the experts, because they will be competing against each other for a prize, based on their own entry fees.

Pretty good system, huh?

I can't understand why none of the experts have voiced their approval yet.

They're all probably too scared.

So we could make this like a multi level type thing. One of the experts helps some one at 5/10 or 10/20( like me specifically) and I in turn help 2 others playing lower limits and they inturn help 2 others. So one guy gets to help 7.

I think it gets more interesting if the bad players are also invested in this, not to mention that it could increase the prize pool enough to gain the attention of some of the better players.

I'm thinking something along the line of 20$/person, winning team gets the prize pool but to be fair split 70/30 mentor/tutor.

Just give the money to rory already and be done with it.

If you think it is easy to be very patient, and easy to be courageous and strong when you play, and easy to not go on tilt ever, and to come back every day feeling strong and playing strong, and to play well postflop and not only not be stupid but play excellently, especially when you have not been running well, then you are definitely not even remotely close to succeeding at any of those things.

too scared of sounding like a douche for claiming to be an expert, yes.

Re: The Pygmalian HUSH challenge (less than NC)
 
NLSoldier has a good point, perhaps people should just start nominating randomly and then the person could come in and show their(lack of?) interest.

That was from here, in a thread I started about wanting to quit LHE.

There were some other good comments in that thread as well, but rory's above post was definitely the highlight...so awesome.
