maybe you could do the screening yourself since you did initiate the thing etc, not sure a post count rule is smart cos there's some really good regs with only a few hundred posts.

I think you (or someone) should just consider a few factors to select a small group of players; those factors being enthusiasm/willingness to contribute, 2p2 reputation/post-count, success at the tables, among others.

i really don't read anyone who posts below 2k hands anyways when i read threads so i think 2k is good?


>2k it is

yeah ok I'll do that closer to the time..there's no point in doing it if the people in the study group aren't of around the same level of understanding. There are a few people for sure who are new to msln, maybe I'll just put them in their own study group and partition it off on the forum.

Eh.. How about other measurements than posts. Like played hands, winnings, reputation, skill etc. I don't have many posts, but i'm sure we are same level in discussion.

ya, i want in to please.

I think what I might do is ask for either a graph of the year or last month and use that to try and put people into groups of 4, of a similar standard and ideally playing different sites (rather than post counts).
Any other ideas?

i want to be in on it. I play 5/10 now.

Im interested if you let me join, I play 5/10 thru 25/50. FWIW I used to have an account with 1000+ posts.

I've now updated the forum to begin a discussion on how its going to work. For those of you with access please have a look at let me know if there's anything you would like added/changed.

hello- just saw this thread and i am very interested in joining the group, please pm me for info, i am pretty new to msnl but i have around 50k hands at 2/4-3/6 running at above 4pt/bb on ftp, i also am a hardworker and i feel like i could be a good member of this kind of community as i am really active about trying to improve my game

Its a good idea, and i understand that you want to reduced the groups, but the # of post thing will not work for me obv, ive been reading 2p2 since 2 years ago, and only now decided to register, i think a better idea is that player shows their pokertracker general info or something with a minimum of some hands (maybe 100k) at the level 400nl -1knl. I play mostly on Everest 400-1knl. pm

What about making the groups based on sites and games. Like party 3-6, ftp 5-10. Of course there are more players in ftp, stars and party than any other site, but something like this could be usefull.

I started using PT in november so I don't have database from hole year, but I have more than 100k hands. I have pretty big poker office database though.

I really don't want to do a group with other FTP 5/10 regs. The more insight they have into my game/thought process, the less edge I have.

We have 16 already registered..I expect there to be 30+ by the end of the year. My plan is to get graphs and get people of a similar standard into groups of 4, ideally each playing a different site. I understand the concerns of giving your game away to other regs so I will be trying my best to keep same site players apart.

I would be in, but I don't think I will have the time to make videos. Why can't we simply share HHs and analyze each other's game? Video seems to be a cumbersome way of doing the same thing.
