Do not be afraid. Knowing and doing are two totally different things.

Thats the thing, they are going to do it. They already started making the website, there are buttons in the software under help(you cant click them yet), etc.

This is horrible.

Two Plus Two is a significantly better resource than Intellipoker will ever be. And clearly, all 95k members here are world class pros.

Yea but 2+2 isnt owned or supported by Pokerstars. I bet you PokerStars plans to advertise it in there little pop up window and have a cool flashy commercial on TV saying something like '....Pokerstars.net the only site with an online poker school to make you a better player!'


Maybe im just paranoid but the idea of stars putting<font color="red"> blogs, rankings, videos, forums, Lessons from pros(raymer, hachem, greenstein, Daniel N.) seems really bad to me.</font>

I emailed them

You really should re-evaluate your definition of "horrible".

Fulltilt does just about the same thing and the play there is worse then stars imo.

That's pretty much what I was thinking.
FT sends you freaking strategy articles via e-mail too. They practically try to hit you over the head with some reasonable advice to stop sucking so much.

PokerRoom has forums too I think.

Just because Stars is going to have some forums where strategy is discussed does not mean that the fish are suddenly going to become good.

I think this will just breed a false sense of being good in most the fish. It's going to take more then Moneymaker showing everyone how to live the luckbox life to turn a fish into a shark.

I think that this will make the fish feel comfortable playing real money which will bring more money into the games. Party had its own school for quite a while now I guess this one is more in depth but I think this will be good for the games. I could be wrong though.
