fenner Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 intersting article about poker forums pg42 -45 hendon poket fives blonde 2+2 and PL all get a review, a nice bit of free advertising and a bit of a snub for the poorer forums like EMS and AWOP:ok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveO Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 Re: 1ssue 62 Inside Edge Yeah a very positive article actually and a decent rating of 3.5 put us on par with the HendonMob and PocketFives. Considering we are primarily a gambling forum thats pretty good I reckon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Quiet Man Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 Re: 1ssue 62 Inside Edge Quite a positive report...however, there's room for improvement obviously. I think we're a gambling forum so it's a start in the right direction to be recognised as a Poker Forum.......a hell of a lot of credit has to go to GaF who seems to have made it his mission in life to get everyone playing and understanding Hold'em.....since he retired, the Mods have managed to carry on the good work!:clap:clap:clap The Poker Section has evolved over the years and now has a section for everyone from beginner to Mole......are there plans to keep adding new sections or have we reached the maximum? Personally, I'd like to see one more section added in which you can ask one of the better players advice on how they would play a certain hand or advice on anything Poker related........simply named threads like 'Ask Mole' or 'Ask WASP' would probably get a detailed response which can only help folk! :ok I know the above could be asked in chat or cash but feel if it was in a designated thread it would be easier for 'Mole' or 'WASP' to find and answer....just an idea!:unsure They might even make it their home page?

BAM Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 Not the first time you've dissected my post and tried to make me look like an idiot! Have a nice day :ok TQM Scott - first of all thank you very much I feel humbled :ok What slightly peeves me, that I think GaF has alluded too and the exact same discussion I've been having with morls tonight, is that there are far better players on PL that do not share strategy (I started a thread about this once ;)) You to me are an enigma along with Hen, MadDuke, Washman and Adetrick (to a lesser extent :lol) and I want to learn from players like yourselves and thats what I thought strat was about? Since then I have decided 'strat is bad' and for the reasons I do not wish to go into. I have no problem with people tapping my poker brain, I cannot speak for Steph but I feel he is similar. The problem I have is I do not think players on PL people even know what my game is? and I feel quite 'newbie' on some games that others think I am good at (does that make sense?) so how qualified I am to speak, I dunno? Blonde (may I say that?) have an 'in the tank' thread that could work on PL I reckon but thats up to hitler and his army ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Washman Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 Re: 1ssue 62 Inside Edge I've got no problem with anyone asking me anything they want....but, whether I'll be able to answer in a constructive way is another matter. A lot of peoples thoughts in strategy (on here aswell as in IP and PP) go right over my head, which is why I never post on there, and to be honest I rarely look at the strategy section. Maybe if someone posted a specific hand I might be able to explain why I did what I did in simple terms :unsure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
