lol, okay - ignore the post if it's that's much trouble understanding it - it's not that big of a deal.

look, people take time out of their OWN schedule to read posts and respond to them. the least you could do if you want help or are asking questions is make it as easy as possible for them to comprehend whatever it is you want. just take a look at how other hands are posted on the forum.

I wrote a perl script a while ago that turned hand histories into (more or less) readable english. It was specifically for use with Paradise histories, but I'm sure it could be easily adapted. I posted it here...

I think you're just trying to stir up some rivalry between the SS and Internet forum for the upcoming tournament. You act as if all the SS post are from B&M hands, but you know good and well that most of the SS post are from internet games.

Hand histories are not inherently easy to read. A better format would definitely be easier and faster to use. Just because you are practiced at the art of reading them doesn't make them optimum. Take the layout of the keys on a typewriter for example. They were purposely put in a non-optimum pattern to slow down typing on the old original typewriters that got stuck easily. There are many people who are quite proficient at typing now, but that doesn't mean that a better layout wouldn't increase speed.

The reason you never hear anyone complaining about posting direct from hand histories on the Internet forum, is because that forum is used less for play critiquing and more for software type questions.

And yes, you can correctly accuse me of stirring up a rivalry. Small Stakes RULES!!!

It's "calling station" if the hand should have been folded instead of called. I don't know that that is the case.
