Default Re: Session Reviews

A bunch of people sign up. Some kind soul divides them into pairs and gives each of them the contact info for their HH swap partner (sounds dirtttty). They trade a hand history with someone, typically 100 or so hands, and they comment on the other person's play, and sometimes comment on the comments and so forth. It can be very illuminating to have someone pick apart your play hand by hand, because it highlights not only specific misplay problems, but also stuff like (in holdem)
"dude, why did you raise A9 UTG here and fold AT like 8 hands later" i.e. it can help you find holes in your game that are spread across the session and not limited to misplaying a particular hand.

Don't forget a particular wrinkle in this forum, though, which is that not all people play all stud games. I can review razz sessions. I'd like to have stud/8 sessions reviewed but I doubt I will be helpful when reviewing someone else's stud/8 session.
