OK, so me and Seven-Deuce have been talking w/ Spoon in IRC about hand-reading skills and how to get better, and i thought it'd be a good idea to have a regular(ish) thread w/ a hand example for everyone to have a go at, so we can all get told what retards we are by Spoon, yaawn, et al.

Sounds fun, right?

So to get the ball rolling, here's Example 1.

We're interested in Villain's range on each street; Hero's actions are what they are.

If i've not supplied enough info on the hand, then let me know; i am - after all - a BC Moran.

Hopefully, a lot of us will get something out of this and keep it going by providing other example hands.

If not, then screw you guys; i'm going home.
