Announcing... The Weekly Game!

[basementproject]

Anybody who's playing-

0.01/0.02 table Gallia

say something 2+2 related when you sit so we can differentiate 2+2ers from regular joes.

table doesn't exist in my lobby :\

[basementproject]

You have table filter on?

It's a 9 seat game. Gallia. 2NL.

There's 4 of us here

That was good stuff. I finished up 1.25 BI [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]. Only one suggestion for next time is start at a 6 max table and move over to a full ring game if there is enough people. Thanks for setting this up, and I'll try to play these when I have time.

Show EVERY hand?

In many past online games among 2+2-ers, the winners showed most of the time. Showing when you fold was not required, but was also done often. This makes even a blind-steal interesting, and it is reassuring to the players who are not used to the level of aggression (larger pots with fewer showdowns) brought by the higher stakes players.

Some players play as well as they can, while some intentionally play like fish. It's all good. Any equity you give up by showing your hands will be returned 50-fold by the poor play of people who don't care, and the educational value.

A common way to run this type of game is to set up a private table, and to post the password on the forums.

The game went great tonight, there were 5 of us playing and it was a ton of fun. Went from 10:00PM-1:00AM EST.

At times, it was a learning experience. Although ever so slightly. I do suggest everyone trying to make it out, as it's great to just meet other players and hack around.

Tomorrow night we'll try it again!
