Here's a random thought for everyone.

I have one particular STTFer who asks me questions about cash hands through AIM. He's always very grateful for me taking the time to answer his questions. It like he feels he's wasting my time or something.

But, what people have to remember is that, for one, helping people with strategy is very helpful to the person giving advice. They have to think through the hand, and make sure each decision has a rationale and communicable reason. Also, I have more experienced cash game players on my AIM list that I discuss hands with. So, in a way it's like a trickle down affect. They help me, so it is my responsibility to in turn help other less experience players than myself.

It's really in line with the way 2p2 works and no one should feel bad about asking a more experienced player for advice. They've received the same in their poker development, so they should be happy to return the favour.
