***Official "It Lives, It Lives" Chat Thread***

[venice10]

Just because all the other cool forums have one.

Leaving in 45 minutes to go play a couple of donkaments at the local card room.

Well played venice!

I also welcome "regulars" threads for major poker markets, such as a Vegas Regs thread or AC Regs thread. I'll start working on a FAQ, and probably open a suggestions box for at least a few months while we're building.

I assume we'll need a BBV thread too, heh.

Cool forum idea. Small stakes live players definitely need a place to post hands because they won't get much good advice in online forums. I can't believe it took us this long to get this created.

I'd just steal CMAR's and modify it a bit for the FAQs. The "XXX" regs thread is going to be a bit tricky and probably needs some clarification from the Admins. 2+2 generally discourages naming live people in a chat thread who aren't famous, but allows all sorts of chat about on-line players (OK, MartinK1979 doesn't count anymore because he is POY in the micros). Perhaps nicknames or first names and a short description would be OK.

A BBV thread will have to happen eventually.

I think I'll wait for the first "bacon" style thread, then just retitle it.

This.

I sent a message to Rapini to post an announcement in B & M.

I'm mainly a SS online player, but I play more live than most of the online SS players on 2+2. Hopefully we get some decent discussion from people that play a lot of live poker.

And an announcement post was moved to the monthly crap thread faster than the speed of light... Makes one wonder what is on some of peoples minds at time.

I like this a ton, I've been a loud advocate of it for awhile. Ironically this forum just started - while I've posted a good deal of live hands in the past, now I don't play as often and rarely post my own anymore. I'll search the recent memory banks and try and add anything interesting that comes up, and be sure to include things from upcoming sessions.

I object to the adjectives. Some of our "low stakes" 1/2 games will play pots that are much larger than what's posted in the medium stakes poker thread.

I don't understand... can you explain?

I specifically picked "low" as "micro", "small", "medium" have such technical and specific definitions (2nl-50nl, 100-200nl, etc.). These are the small games in the pokerroom after all, so I though low-stakes was appropriate.

I don't understand either. How is 'low' any more or less specific whene live play has not defined the categories that you listed.

[DiggertheDog]

low stake everything up until 5-10? 5-10 25-50 midstakes 50-100+ highstakes?

[brocksavage1]

I think we should definitely include 5/10 hands. I play 5/10 live and it usually plays as easy or easier than 100NL online.
