And is any of this at all relevant to the proposed board split? No.

Think about it, it sorta is when considereing where the cutoff is. Alright the $60's is pushing it

[/ QUOTE ]

Right trying to push for the PS $60s to be included and not the PP $55s is a surefire recipe to just piss people off and get nothing done. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

I agree, you gotta cut it off at some point. $100+ is what I voted for anyways

I think splitting the forum is not a great idea.

Well that throws a damper on things.

I think my biggest reason for being all for it is that it's human nature to like new stuff, and get into all into it for a while. So we would probably be guaranteed some pretty good strategy discussion, at least for a while until everyone got bored with it and went back to the same patterns as before.

curtains loves (don't ask me why) reading and posting low hands, i'd bet any amount of money that he'd still linger in small stakes

(this isn't a knock, i wouldn't be where i am today if not for him posting in those threads for me and others)

[/ QUOTE ]

If there were 2 forums I'd almost always read the high stakes one, but it'd probably be pretty boring.

Default Another difference

Often times low limit threads have an "answer". Once the OP realizes that answer, there is no point in discussing the hand anymore, and the thread dissapears.

In many high stakes hands, there are no "answers" and heavy discussion is required. Threads will often have many new posts in them for the better part of a week before they dissapear. A specific forum w/ much less volume would be a lot more condusive to those discussions.

I have no doubt a HS forum will create a lot of great discussion (if it means more high stakes players actually starts posting hands). But I fear it will lessen the quality of the lower stakes one.

I voted YES and 100+

I just worry about the fact that that there is not enough people around here....I'm being pretty picky here...this is probably the BEST place to get feedback, etc, but sometimes no one responds to a post, or there is just one or two opinions..

frequently I am the ONLY person to respond to a post....and I'm am not even close to being enough of a pro for my opinion to be trusted as true...

Splitting this forum up won't make this any worse I guess

are there so little serious players out there, or can they just not find 2+2?
