As I was reading your post, I was thinking about asking you to do just this. I would love to have this place turn into the forum you are describing. I consider you an ideal poster, and would be thrilled if you brought some of your friends along to help contribute to the discussions here.

Default 2+2

I mentioned that I do not frequent 2+2 much. I wanted to explain why. It is not so much the bad advice aspect. I actually appreciate the advice. I find two things annoying.

The first thing is that alot of people ignore your posts. I guess there just sick of hearing for the umpteenth time why is this move bad, or what could I have done differently. I posted a hand up and asked "What would you do differently?", get one response, and he just complained that I wasnt asking a specific enough question. I showed you the freaking hand and asked how you would play it for some insight, what more do you want?

The second thing I dislike about the forum at times is people assume when they say something, you just beleive it as gospel and alot of the time there is not alot of explaination of the why. I find the why much more facinating than the "Do this", because it gives me a chance to see what the motivation behind things are and decide if it fits my style. I tend to see my Poker life as an evolving unqiue and artistic thing. It encorporates what works for me.

Having said all this I do browse the forums and sometimes pickup nice tidbits of information. Everything coming in has some worth.
