Sit on it lol - I loved Happy Days and the Fonz.


Even Q 10o had you beat till the river. You only seem to post 2 types of hands.

1. Where you play badly and get lucky.

2. Where you play badly get lucky and lose.

Im not saying im much better but I dont post if i think i played it wrong.

If I posted the standard hands as well would make for boring reading. Just watch some WSOP telecasts and you will see not every plays top 10% everytime. In fact the interesting hands are the ones where players play bad & get lucky against opponents who may hold better hands. I usually post hands where I try something out of the norm.

So you play to impress some imaginary audience?

I think you should be posting hand for their educational value over and above anything else. Entertainment included.

I think you misunderstood. You asked why I post hands in two given categories and the answer is for entertainment value not for discussion. Sometimes I post hands in the hand discussion section for hands that need to be discussed.

No I don't play to impress any imaginary audience. I was using the WSOP to show how hands played different to the norm has entertainment value and by posting them does not require any discussion.

Have a look at my posts and you will see if I post a HH in the hand discussion section - it is usually for discussion. But if I post a HH in the General Poker section or within another thread - it may be for entertainment value and not neccessarily discussion.

just be prepared to discuss every hand that you post trishan :D


btw, the most interesting hands are ones that are "standard" but you are asking whether the way you played it was the best in the circumstance.

Hand History = discussion. Whether you want to or not.

It's because of the forum d0nk filter - replace the words "non thinking player" in the URL with d0nk and you will see it.
