You are never gonna get enough out of posting hands if you spread yourself so thinly that you have 10 threads going at any given time. Post one good one, and really absorb the input that people are nice enough to give you.

Starting today I'll be locking and or recycle binning any of your threads in excess of one per calendar day.

This is not a harsh post, I doubt that there are 10 hands in a session that requires that much discussion.

{edit}I will add that you can post as many as you want in an OP thread in the Blogs section though if you feel you need.

I think one is a little low, but a couple seems reasonable.

But yah I agree that 8-10 or something is a little much. You're also less likely to get ppl replying if they wake up in the day and see 10 new hands to look at... ppl just don't look if thats the case!

i was starting to figure this out already, so i posted 4 yesterday. i guess it would have been okay normally but the previous' couple days worth made it seem like i was posting a ridiculous number again.

sorry guys just really looking to improve my game right now i really appreciate all the good advice

How can you complain that someone is participating too much in the forums? Don't respond to the threads if you don't want to.

Sorry this is just dumb IMO to limit someone to the number of questions they want to ask, it's not like this forum is booming or anything as it is, I actually thought it was about to die not too long ago. The more participation the better dude, you probably could have solved this if you asked him in a PM not to post more than 4 or 5 in a day or whatever anyways.

Participating and spamming threads are a couple of different things, Marshall. And yes I should have done it in a PM and for that I apologize. Frankly, I saw there was an issue, and there was the new thread button and I clicked it out of convenience.

It's not a big deal bspahn and I encourage your participation in the future. I especially encourage a quality over quantity approach wherein we have rich discussions on one or two interesting scenarios, rather than ephemerally touch on 15 different ones and no one gains anything.


By the way, not for nothing but if fnord would have gazed upon this forum at any point he would have snap locked every bspahn thread. Just saying...

Somethign I'd suggest is posting 2-3 hands of a similar type in one thread. Like hands where you call a 3bet, or hands where you fire 2 barrels and arnt sure about 3rd, etc. That way people are able to compare the hands as well as individually judge them.
Just playing to improve.
