Hi guys. I wanted to try something new, and if it catches on or you guys really like it we can perhaps turn it into a more regular occurrence.

Anyway. I want to run a hand history review session/training session...It will be free to attend, and anyone that wants to attend can do so. It will be held online (obviously) and I will be using a screen sharing program to show the hand history to everyone, and you will also be able to talk through this program.

This will take place on Tues. Sept 6th at 3:00pm EST, a few weeks from now, this will give time for the word to spread and people to give some ideas on what they'd like to see. I'm open to suggestions about changing the date/time to accommodate all people. (Please remember, there are people from all over the world that may want to attend this, so just because you are on the west coast and have to work doens't mean that I will push it back 8 hours) I figured this was a nice middle of the road time that would be best for all.

I expect this review to last a couple of hours. I'm aiming for 2 hours just so it doesn't get too long/boring, but I could see it running a little longer than that if there's a lot of questions/discussions (and we all know how much i love to talk).

Also, let me know what you would like to talk about. I plan on showing a hand history from a tourney that I have played, and talk about interesting spots as they come up, as well as field any questions that anyone may have. However, if there is a major topic you would like me to touch on (such as 3betting light, opening light, defending from the blinds, etc.) let me know in advance and I will do my best to incorporate it into the discussion.

If you would like to be part of this review session, please PM me with your email address as soon as possible. I will be sending out an email before the session with access to my screen so everyone can see the hh. I would like to try to get a rough count of who will be attending and don't really want to put a cap on the number of people, but if there is a very high number of people there may be some lag problems with the screen sharing program. I have a program in mind i'm going to use, but am going to be doing some testing of different programs to see if anything will work better.

Please note: if you have ideas/suggestions for topics or anything else...please post them in the thread and not in the PM that you send to me. I want everyone to be able to see the whole discussion and bounce ideas off one another

That's pretty much it. I'm open to any and all suggestions on topics to talk about, ideas to make this better, or ideas to make this run as smooth as possible. Looking forward to a good session and discussion!


p.s. if anyone knows of a program such as gatherplace.com or something else similar to that that you do not have to pay for where I can share both my screen and my audio through the same program, that would be great. we don't have to hear everyon'e audio, just mine...but i def want the ability for everyone to be able to type into a chat of some sort (most programs have a chat, but just saying)





*disclaimer* This is meant to be an educational and rewarding experience for anyone who wants to attend. I don't expect it to be a problem, and hope that it doesn't come to this, however, I reserve the right to kick anyone out of the training session if they are causing a disturbance or being hateful, or for any other reason that may impede the learning experience of others.

nice 1 gags

PM sent!

Great idea, i'll be there.

just to name a few of the million things i'd like to hear your thoughts about mtt's on:

28ish-45ish bb stack play,

playing any decent flopped draws in pos and oop with that stack size

light 3 betting from the blinds, the sizing of those 3b's, and post flop lines you take in these hands,

multi way setmining when in and oop and not getting standard implied odds for HU set mining

open shoving ranges from early and middle position with 14-20ish bb

and any and all things involving lategame, more so the final 2 and 3 tables than the FT

ok i'll stop there

Count me in, PMing you my skype and email. Thanks for making this friendly to people living across the Atlantic.

-Discussions on what boards and situations to double barrel / continue on the turn after cbetting.

I want in!

it was really tough for me to come up with a time for this, because i knew making it at 3pm EST would prevent americans that work from attending...but a large portion of players on this site are european now (since black friday), and there doesn't seem to be many other complaints about the day/time, so unfortunately it looks like the time is going to stay where it is for now...in the future if i do something like this again i may try a different time
