I agreed to do the Part 3 Reading the Table questions today since zook is out.

1. Harrington says,
Quote:
One could argue, in fact that a player is nothing more than the sum of his betting patterns.
[HOH1 page 88].
Do you agree? If not then list what else should be considered.

2. Harrington mentions 4 things to watch for when reading the table. Which do you feel is the most important and why?
Quote:
A. How many hands do they play?
B. What hands do they show down?
C. Are they callers or raisers?
D. How do they respond when someone comes over the top?
[HOH1 pages 89 and 90]

3. We need to ask ourselves questions to determine our image. Harrington lists 3 questions, which do you think is the most important and why?
Quote:
A. How many hands have I been playing?
B. What hands have I actually shown down?
C. What would a keen observer think about me at this point?
[HOH1 page 98]

4. Do you multi-table when playing online? How much do you think this hurts in terms of reading the table?

5. Throughout online mtts players are moved from table to table frequently(sometimes more early on). Do you spend more time reading the table later in the tournament or are you fairly consistent? Do you concentrate more on reads at the final table?
