2. afternoon/evening

3. 2 years.

4. 22s to 33s usually.

5. just switched to FTP

6. Solid understanding of STT equity and low/high blind play (mid blind is my weakest i believe)

7. Maryland USA (EST)

Looks like we have 8 interested people right now. I am going to give this thread 1 more day. Afterwards all of you will recieve a PM from me.

Note: No offense guys, but only join if you are 100% serious and will be dedicated to making this group work. I have no problem if you only want to join in periodically. But if you want to join full-time (I know we all have busy schedules) I expect you all of you to meet up during our set times the majority of times.

Sorry if I sound like a drill sergeant, but to really make this group work we all need to be dedicated to this and come prepared with ideas to discuss.

Malifous,

care to elaborate on the IRC channel? I have no clue what it is or what it does. Why is it better than MSN/AIM?

What do you guys think of making a website where you can post hands to view for everyone, posts results, etc etc?

Does anybody know what kind of costs would be involved?

2. same, or during week ends
3. 2.5 years
4. 27s and 60s
5. PS

Re: Calling out all full-time mid-level players...study group
 

My contribution to this thing getting off the ground is that daily is never going to work. It just won't: people have lives, people are at different time zones, etc etc. I think this idea works best as a once weekly or twice weekly thing. People will perhaps be more regular if it is not every single day, and perhaps the eurodonks wouldn't mind altering their schedule once a week, whereas they couldn't meet every single day.

I expect that if we try to do this daily, it will disintergrate quickly. I motion for either once weekly or twice weekly meetings.

Re: Calling out all full-time mid-level players...study group
 

I think irc channel would solve that, there should be people all the time and you could organize a big meeting once/twice a week.
