do share :D

In general, a lot of the population can fall into 4 broad personality types. The dynamo - always has the big ideas, great schemes, get people all excited, but doesn't worry about the small details until too late. The Director, who is always sticking to the schedule, no procastinating because they want it down. The Analyst, who is the tech spec kind of guy, the very fine nuts and bolts. The Friend, who is always trying to keep everyone calm and keeping everything running.

Comparing Dave Scott and Muzz together, they all seem to fit two of the categories. Which just to my opinion is more of the Analyst and Friend role. The analyst is good because in Omaha they are always looking, the friend because they like the easy nature of the game, you can get to a flop only being a 5-15% dog. Even money most times.

Look at Holdem players in the world, Suited more to the dynamo and director, but the big grand bet, the flourish, the bravado. Phil Hellmuth, Tony G, Hachems, Topakas, e.t.c Typically suited to more Dominant personalities.

I like omaha too. I fit into the friend more than the analyst, but i am reserved when i am speaking to people until after a while when i can open up. Plus the less agressive nature suits me as a pacifist. Whereis Garth is the more agressive of us 2, and why he dominates in Holdem.

Something to think about.

For those with the new software can you please check starting stacks for these events?

The 6-max OC Event has 5 minute blinds - that's a turbo. The HU has 10 min blinds which is OK. The ME has 25 min blinds and HR 20 minute blinds which will make for some good play.

Thanks Des.

Main event looks like it will probably touch 150 people so wit ha 20K start stack and 25 min blinds - looking at a long night.

6-max should be finish quite quickly. Looking forward to it.

Looks like fun - any thoughts from 888pl about a possible Player of the Year type points system for the online champs in the future (with maybe a gf seat?) for the best player across all 5 events?
