My favorite poker threads/sites

[spider]

Great site Guido, I've also had it bookmarked for a while. Some potential additions (unless they're there and I missed them):

(1) Software (free) to calculate odds against a range of hands (unlike twodimes which only handles specific hands). I use PokerCalculator which I like a lot, but I think PokerStove is more widely used around here.

(2) Links to starting hand charts. The first chart I used was from King Yao. This thread has some nice comments from HUSH luminaries.

(3) Nemesis 6 max guide Some overlap with your stuff, but not entirely. Includes a link to MEbenhoe's starting hand guide and Nate's stop'n'go explanation which is a favorite of mine.

Hi Spider,

Thanks a lot! I've just added the software links. I already had an odds calculator under poker statistics but with the one you gave, you can do a lot more so I deleted the other one. I've added pokerstove too.

I didn't add the starting chart because I think everybody has a different style and should figure out what suites him the most.

I had already read Nemisis' thread and didn't think those threads added a lot. Most of them seemed too basic.

Thanks a lot for those thread again!

I hope other have some more good threads/websites.

If you see a broken link or have any other suggestions please send me an email/PM me or say it here.

Thanks,

Guido

Hey Guido - Great site!

For more threads I recommend you search the 2+2 archive server for Ulysses posts in hush, many of them are real gems.

Yes, another good suggestion. Is it possible to do this directly, however? If I search for user Ulysses, it never turns anything up (I guess b/c Ulysses changed El Diablo). So I have to go to a bookmarked Ulysses post, then click Ulysses, then click show all posts.

So, is that how you do it, or is there an easier way?

go
http://archiveserver.twoplustwo.com/search.php?Cat=
and type in Ulysses for newer than, say, 4 years.

Well, yeah, that's pretty much what I've been doing. And I shouldn't have said it never works for me, because sometimes it does. But it usually doesn't work for me and I don't know why it does sometimes and not others.

Anyway, I only seem to have this problem searching for Ulysses posts so I assume it has something to do with the fact that it is not a current user name and how the search engine code is written.

Eventually all searches will be out-sourced to Google, right? Well, I hope so anyway.
