    Default FTR Session Review Updates

    [If you are unsure of what this is about, check out this thread: http://www.flopturnriver.com/phpBB2/...oker-42620.htm ]

    Alright guys, Im sorry things have fallen behind with this, Ive just had a ton going on with school, elections, girlfriend, etc. Anyways, things are coming together now so I'll get back on top of this. I have decided to postpone this review until Friday, and in the mean time I need to go over the list to account for the people that say they dont want to do it anymore as well as the new signups. I will also try to PM some people and get some new signups for this review, you guys are encouraged to do this as well

    So yea, expect a post from me on Friday with the new pairings, etc. If you want to sign up then post in this thread or send me a PM.

    I'd like to try this. I play SHNL$50 mostly.

    I might struggle with the first one, maybe someone could send me one they've done or been sent before to show me how its done so my first few efforts aren't too poor. I'll probably spend a bit of time on it so I'd like to try to get it right and do a decent job.

    Might be a good idea. How do you pair people up? Is it based solely on stakes? I play $25NL right now, but I'd better be moving up to $50NL in ... mmm ... four days.

    First time: I sent session, partner didn't.
    Second time: I sent review partner didn't.
    Third time: I sent session, partner didn't.

    There were reasons involved. But there's not been a complete session yet...
    Blah blah Op Blah blah

    On the other end of the spectrum, I have traded sessions multiple times in the same two week period with everyone I have been paired with. I have not run into this at all. I have also returned all sessions given to me.

    I have said several times, and I still say it's true, that this has been VERY helpful to my game....

    My experience:

    Round 1 - Paired up with someone with more experience who plays higher stakes. I sent a session, he made great comments. He never sent a session, and I don't blame him.

    Round 2 - Paired up with someone who plays the same stakes. We exchanged multiple sessions, 500-700 hands!

    Round 3 - Paired up with someone who plays higher stakes. We e-mailed a few times, but it was a really busy time for me and I never sent a session. He didn't either.

    Round 4 - Paired up with the same partner as Round 2, we've exchanged multiple sessions again, close to the same number of hands as Round 2. We've given each other extensive comments and gone back and forth about certain hands. It's been really good for my game.

    This is an incredible tool for improving your game if you have a couple extra hours every two weeks to devote to it. Thanks for organizing Andy!

    -First time i got paired up with Terrytoma, and i think we had some good communication about our sessions.
    -Second time was with vegascoop, was very positive . :P
    -Third time was with cardsman, we had good communication aswell, unfortunatly i didnt have much time for more sessions he had send me afterwards.(if u want i can revieuw some more session, just send them again cause i think i lost your last email with sessions)
    -Fourth time was with bankitdrew.Communication wasn't optimal this time, maybe because ive send my biggest winning session wich wasn't really something i did on purpose because i took 2 session from the weekend right after we got paired.He hasn't replied on my other session were i had some losses in.


    Im still up for session revieuws though, so if anyone wants to get paired up with me let me know.

    This is me zook's talking about. October saw me taking a couple of weeks of from ring games.

    In my first review pairing I sent a session review/comments to my partner but didn't get anything in return. My current pairing is with the same person, and I haven't heard anything from him. I've been kinda busy so I haven't bothered taking the initiative.

    I'm now back playing 200NL FR and will do my best to make my next round of reviews work out. This is a great concept that should help everyone's game immensely, and it would be sad to let it go by half-hearted.

    Its Friday morning and I have no school - so I guess I'll hit the tables so I have something to send to my partner (although I don't know who he/she is)
