My last two posts concerned some difficult hands in MTTs and asked for a little help with them to better my play. Tons of people look at them and don't bother to respond.

I searched your username and only found one thread that you have started. You waited all of 54 minutes before posting this:

who do you have to blow to get someone to respond to your post?

Perhaps I just missed your other post, but do you really think that makes people want to reply?

Just remember, you were young once, and learning, and now look at you, you are old in knowledge and there are people out there that could benefit from it.

I do remember. If I didn't, I wouldn't make half the posts I make. The reality is that you get tired of replying to the same questions over and over again when you've been here a while. I reply to a few boring posts each week because I know what it's like to post a hand that is really troubling and have no one reply, but I can't reply to every post.

I will probably get black balled now and no one will ever respond to my posts again,

Not if you chill out. We've have a number of reformed jerks and "whiny punks" (as Lethal Rose so eloquently put it [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]), and we don't hold their past behavior against them if they keep it in the past.

Here's the "normal" method for getting responses:

1. Post your hand/question.
2. Wait a few hours, if not a full day, then bump the post once.
3. If you still get no response, move on.

Another option is to PM a friend and ask them to reply. I do this occasionally when post+bump doesn't get it done. Of course, you have to have friends to do this and that may take longer than 2 days.

Thanks for you time to read this. No offense intended to anyone.

You're welcome. None taken.

Welcome to the forum,
