Not to hijack your thread but I have a quick table coach story that happened to me a couple of weeks ago. Party 2/4 semi-tight table. Coach: In this game everybody should be seeing the flop with any pocket pair. Me: thanks, coach. Coach: STFU some people don't know how to play. The very next hand I cold-call his raise from late position with 33. 4 people to flop flop comes A37 rainbow Coach bets. other 2 players fold. I re-raise. Coach calls Turn Q Coach checks. I bet. Coach calls. River 2 Coach checks. I bet. Coach re-raises. I call. Coach shows A6o. LOL me: thanks for the advice coach, I normally would have folded PF. [/ QUOTE ] Why did you raise the flop? Me no likey. |

I'm not sure there's anything you can do about it. If they're giving advice about how to play a hand during the hand, then you can report them. If they're giving general play advice (right or wrong) or talking about how a hand should have been played once it's over, Party isn't going to ban their chat.
Telling you to put someone on their buddy list because they lost 50BB is results oriented and/or shows a basic lack of understanding of variance. I put people on my list because they play a style that I think I can best exploit (which is super loose, super passive, by the way, not maniacal). Their short-term results do not factor into the decision. |

And why didn't you 3-bet the river? What, were you afraid the coach was holding 45 and raised pre-flop? Don't tell me you were thinking AA. The correct play seems to be a call on the flop, and bet/raise no matter what falls on the turn. This way, you pick up another small bet. Looks as the table coach would've tried to check-raise you and bluff on the river regardless.

No coaches know what they're talking about. None. I've rarely seen a coach give good advice, and NO coach is a good player. So nobody knows, huh. [/ QUOTE ] I like to think I'm a good player and I coach at the tables. Of course, my coaching advice is like this: "You can't win if you fold." "You've got to see the flop for 1 bet. You might flop quads" "Play any Ace or any 2 sooted" "If you have an Ace (even with a bad kicker), and an Ace falls on the flop, there's only 2 left unaccounted for. Really unlikely that someone else has one." "Just call with pocket Aces. You'll lose less when someone beats you." |

Personally I think the "just call with pocket Aces" line is overstated. What you should be a big proponent of is FOLDING high pocket pairs. I prefer JJ, QQ, and KK since everybody's been ingrained with the AA holy grail. If you need a true discussion of the merits of my true winning style of play, go ahead and PM me. Personally I think it should be obvious. KK always gets cracked, therefore you should fold it preflop. point QED match.
