THIS FORUM IS FOR SINGLE HANDS, RIGHT?

[huge]

I'm seeing three full-tournament HH's that I think belong in other forums ... or did I miss the memo?

I think these belong in SHIP, DERAILED or COMMITMENT, right? (Maybe commitment tournaments should be posted in SHIP or DERAILED with a link to them in your commitment thread)

got the message but there really is no place for hh's or a portion of a tournament that goes deep but not the final table.

hey bisha ... hope you didn't take offense (can't tell from online language sometimes)

And I definitely hope you didn't completely remove your post about your HH. That certainly was not my intent.

I just noticed that Steve defined the two full-HH forums to leave a no-man's-land between finishing in the final 9 and failing to finish in the final 27, so it makes sense that you didn't know where to put it.

It makes sense to me to have two different places to post tournament histories, but I suggest a different criteria...

1. Deep runs, probably where you make the final 1-3 tables, definitely where you cash, in which you think there is some good poker for people to look at who are asking "how can I make a run like that too?" ... but also in which you can receive feedback and criticism. Basically "HEY! THIS WENT PRETTY WELL! WHAT DO YOU GUYS THINK?"

2. Not-so-deep-runs where you feel like you maybe didn't play all that great and would like people to look at your HH and give some suggestions for improvement. Basically "THIS DIDN'T GO SO WELL ... WHAT COULD I HAVE DONE DIFFERENTLY?"

If someone finishes 12th in a 3000-player event that counts to me as a very nice deep run, and I want to look at it to see how that player succeeded in getting that far ... whereas when I finish 9th in a 64-player tournament I'm usually coming away thinking "how did I &*$% that up?". So I think we might want to divide the two along lines of the intent of the poster - what they want to get out of having people look at it - rather than whether or not it's a final table.

Steve, what do you think?

[bishamonten]

no offense taken Huge I just don't really know where to put partial hh's so I took it off.

[huge]

cool, let's see how we define the two forums and then there should be an obvious place for it.

Yes - great point Huge

My thinking was:

1. Final table play including short handed, and eventually heads up is great value.

2. Create a "winners" forum which defines winning as DEEP - last table, maybe last two (I believe your point is valid).

So that is one forum - The SHIP

Then people get stuck getting to the final table - that grey area where they are deep but not quite there....to your point.

Derailed Forum.

I didn't want to turn this into another post your HH regardless of how you do - because I think that belongs within a POD, or email a link or up to you HUGE as new mod in this forum, perhaps an additional forum.

Finally, single HH need to be formated the way I ask because I'd like to keep some consistency to search when the appropriate time comes.

So in the future - do we change the hand for them, or just take it down and send a PM saying we need this in the proper format as per my sticky.

I hate to be anal, but when we get to 400 HH, it would be nice to have something that is clear and concise vs. lost.

Also, when posting "Should I shove" or "Should I call" - please take the time to you yourself use the PUSH BOT calculator...perhaps the answer is right infront of you from a math perspective.

Then post those results here - and then ask...in which case we aren't debating the pure math of your play - but he theory....

So to answer your question Huge - Yes...I concur.
