From the Text Book: HAND READING

[SeaEagle]

I have to generally agree with TMTTR on this post. I won't go so far as to say it's a bad beat post, but the decpetion in the OP was uncalled for IMO.

The original post started out with
[ QUOTE ]
For all aspiring poker demons, a hand reading exercise!

[/ QUOTE ]
followed by reads and an admonition that
[ QUOTE ]
The man to watch here is on the Button.

[/ QUOTE ]
and finally a p.s. that said
[ QUOTE ]
This is not so hard

[/ QUOTE ]

Since I think hand reading is an important skill and it was not at all clear to me what villian had, I assumed this was a good learning excercise, especially since you inferred it was not hard for you to read villian's hand. Subsequently, I followed this thread with baited breath only to find that, from a learning standpoint, I was completely wasting my time.

If you want to start threads of this type, I for one would appreciate it if you labeled them something like "Guess the Donk Hand" and not "From the Text Book: HAND READING"
