I love how no one has asked this question yet..

why would you tell him your hand....I can't imagine this would be a good "play" here

Probably because it's irrelevant to the subject of the post

Headsup in a cash game, no big deal, it’s fine to discuss your hand.

Actually coffeehousing violates the rules of most sites. You cannot discuss the current hand for any reason. Online poker is different from B&M in this respect.

What you did was wrong.

I'd be more worried about OP doing this frequently than getting scolded by partypoker

So you got scolded, BFD. As a curtesy to all players, you should not be discussing ANY cards while ANY hand is still in play. Pretty simple. Move on with your life.

The only reason this is wrong is because there were still other players involved. If it's heads up anything should go (the site's T&C probably differ, but that doesn't make them any more correct than the ones that say they can confiscate all funds in your account if you ask a friend to play for you whilst you go take a piss).

Mitch Evans' argument about it affecting other players' chances is one of the worst thought out stupidest arguments I've seen put forward on 2+2, and that's saying something. If you believe you are acting in your own best interests in a heads up situation there is nothing wrong. This wasn't heads up however and Party were right to warn you. Ironically if you were lying about your hand there wouldn't have been a rule violation by standard poker rules. I don't know about Party's T&Cs.

Says you. You have any reasons for this or should we just trust your wisdom?

And exactly how are Party or the others at the table supposed to know you are acting in you own best interest?

What if you know the other player is a 2+2er and you are softplaying him, helping him survive the Bubble?

Talk about an unthought out stupid argument.

excellent point...except that he's correct. in a tournament every player's success is related to how well/poorly everyone else performs. if there was some particular interest in keeping the BB alive in the tourney and keep him from calling in a -ev situation, then everyone else in the tourney suffers.

revagain, youre funny.
