SS challenge

Everyone gets to post one hand, the most interesting hand wins $20. If you post more than one hand you're disqualified. I'll whittle the results down to a reasonable number, then we'll vote. Please include "IHC" in the subject line of your post. The challenge will begin and end tomorrow. Voting will close the next day.

This should be interesting. Usually the most interesting hands here make it to page 2 pretty quickly. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Hence he IHC subject line. I'm only reading the IHC hands. I'm paying $20 to find SS interesting again, hopefully.

This is interesting and I intend to participate.

On a related note, I actually considered the following idea: sending a PM to 14 members of SS and assigning them a day of the week, each day to two people and requesting that alternating each week they post one interesting or complex hand in an effort to bring the quality of posts back up. Thoughts?

That'd be interesting to see.

Great ideas, guys.

Do 6-max hands get to participate?

Sorry. No 6-max, no micros, no NL, no tourney's.

SS's hands are 7 players or more, ranging from 2/4 to whatever is just below 15/30.

edited to remove the "you can post a hand you've never posted played anytime." I am restricting this to hands played recently---honor system. I think people would be better served by realizing that interesting hands can be found in most every session.

By interesting do you mean very tricky/tough decision play by Hero.. or just more like "wtf this guy called me down with no pair no draw and 3 high " interesting.
