Trip report: weekend play at the Wynn & Bellagio 15-30 games

[NickMPK]

I thought this was a really good trip report.

I really don't think we should be criticizing the way people play when they post trip reports. Leave that for the strategy forums.

Great trip reports make this forum worth reading. If people on this board want them to keep coming, we shouldn't make criticisms that will make people uncomfortable about posting them in the first place.

Of course, if a criticism is aimed at the quality of the report rather than the quality of the poker play, that's a different story. We don't need to encourage badly written or incomplete reports.

thats why 2+2 was created, so people can discuss strategy and become better players. You got to keep that in mind, even if its not your specific goal it is still the goal of others. No sweat, as I pointed out thats why I love trip reports with just a tiny bit of poker.. they tend to be a lot more fun to read (although this report was written really good, so well that the bad strategy could be ignored even though it makes me cringe).

Luckily almost nobody in here really cares about how it affects you. We just laughed because the author clearly knows how to put one of these things together. Not to mention sometimes it's ok to play poker in a way that's goin to amuse the reader. I think if everyone only played ABC there would be way fewer fun stories. Keep it up OP, would read again.

Apparently swope cared, and I care how it affects the readers of the B&M forum who may not know better, and the many people here who are looking to become better players care too - thats why they visit 2+2. My job as moderator is to meet the needs of the majority of users here, and this is not the forum for posting gross errors so we can all laugh at/with them.

Go troll somewhere else, this type of attitude is better suited for BBV where you normally hang out - its not welcome in the B&M forum, we are looking for positive contributions to the community here. Positive includes being honest with a poster when he is making -EV decisions so he can make better plays in the future. Sorry you don't seem to understand that, but this thread isn't catering to you specifically.
