I don't know what happened when I copy/pasted, but it seems I've accidentally left out the part about signing up by sending an email.

You guys are in, but please post the limit you play.

For others who want in, please send an email to ssshhandswap@gmail.com stating your 2p2 sn, the limit you play and whether you want to be on the permanent list.

I am in. I prefer a regular(Full time pro) to be my partner.
Daily hand swapping would be good. From $3/$6 to $5/$10

The pairings are done randomly, no exceptions.

Re: Hand swap signup for October.
 
90 percent 5/10
10 percent 10/20-15/30

mvoss,
since many of us play 10/20 and 15/30 sometimes and midstakes has nothign like this, may I propose th following:
Split us up into two groups

*.5/1 - 3/6 and below
* 5/10 - 15/30

I imagine we may even get more of the midstakes regs participating if we include 10/20 and 15/30 and try to make steps that ensure the pairings are somewhat equal.

Re: Hand swap signup for October.
 
vmacosta, that's a very reasonable request and I'll think about it, there may be one problem though. The hand swaps are run mostly as a benefit for the SSSH posters and my first priority are the players who play within the SSSH limits of 5/10 and below. Lumping everything from .25/.50-3/6 into one group leaves that group with a very very wide range imo. Ideally I think 1/2 and below should be one group and 2/4-5/10 should be the other group. However due to the no. of signups at each limit and to accomodate those playing above 5/10 the groups so far have been 2/4 and below and 3/6 and above.

Actually I'll make a new thread with a poll. If the poll shows that a vast majority of the people here are for the split you propose I'll do that, if it's close I'll make the decision and if it's a clear win for the going on without changes we'll do that.

mvoss,
I have no idea the skill difference between .25/.5 and 3/6. You are probably correct. So then are 3 categories feasible or is that too much work and liable to have too many odd numbers?

mattnxtc 09-26-2007 03:47 PM

Re: Hand swap signup for October.
 
I would assume I am at the lowest limits possible of anyone based on what I have seen. Ill need the best reviewer available obviously haha.

I dunno how many actual sshe there actually are that post here...would be interested to see who plays the real low limits at tilt?

mjkidd 09-26-2007 03:49 PM

Re: Hand swap signup for October.
 
in...mostly 3/6 and 5/10, with some drunken 10/20+ in as well.

Yeah, I thought about making 3 groups but don't really want to for these exact reasons.

Re: Hand swap signup for October.
 
How many people are there that are at .5/1 and lower that are doing the handswapping? Am I one of about 2? haha

Catsailor 09-26-2007 05:13 PM

Re: Hand swap signup for October.
 
I guess I'm the other one. I play mostly .5/1 at Stars and FTP

mvoss 09-26-2007 06:21 PM

Re: Hand swap signup for October.
 
IIRC there are quite a few people in playing .5/1 and 1/2 and some playing 0.25/0.50.

Re: Hand swap signup for October.
 
I just want to make sure that I am on the list for this next month. Playing the low stakes though it looks like I will be moving up to .5/1 relativley soon.

mvoss 09-30-2007 06:37 AM
