10NL on Stars

US mid-south

I was four-tabling 10NL TH 6M CG on PS but am in the process of moving to 25NL at FTP. I have deposit/account problems right now but hope to play again within a week. I am in Southern California and prefer to do these sweat sessions on weekdays anytime from early afternoon to late night. Message me on Skype with this sn or PM me if you would like to do this. You will need Skype, Teamviewer, and a microphone headset. Good luck, Yojimgari

I play 100nl on party. miiighhhttt move back down to 50 but seems doubtful. only really want sweats from 50nl regulars or people in the 50/100nl region. will sweat anyone, preferably 25nl-50nl. already pm'd the one dude in the 50/100 range.

I'm in if this gets off the ground.

Sounds good, thanks for setting this up

I would be interested. 25NL Usually playing between 0100 and 0400 UTC

[edit] nvm

I think pairing off based on limit/site/location is the way to go. OP, you are saintly for sorting out the logistics.

yes! 50nl on stars! pm me

I'm in. Stars account at NL25. Thanks OP for doing this.

NL50

NL 10-20. European timezone.

50NL--just moving up on Stars. Would love to do this.

Here are the pairings for this month. I did my best to put you with someone in your time zone who plays at a limit you requested.

beHype --> Thappers
NLPokerGuy --> ohly
jallabar --> Sl8a
MCHpow_pow --> Ol' Bill
ThOm. --> AYinBKK
ZemichT --> The-Fryke
AndyEB --> voldemort
CobiG13 --> Diamond Lie
LordDante --> Gustav
UgliCassanova --> Check_the_Nuts
WackyBrak --> Auadougs
nas432 --> am_man
oddcall7 --> Sjeanne
mOeeOm --> MindGamez
riastrad --> HappyPixel
**ZeitGeist** --> Ketlar
Loki9 --> richyl2008
junwagh --> br3nt00
Vern --> Falker34
Yojimgari --> villagio
PandaKun --> JustSomeGuy
RockRattler --> obloni
PripTonite --> Sundrew
Dudd --> MrBruno
SmokingRobot --> AskZandar
Sick Heater --> KeyMyaths

PM your partners to setup when you want to sweat. Refer back to the thread I linked in the OP for which tools you'll need to do this.

If you still want to do this but are late there are always stragglers. I won't be doing any more pairings this month after this post so you'll need to set it up amongst yourselves.

- Andy

eff. Got in too late.

No I ninja edit paired you in

Thanks for the effort andyEB.

I've got some ideas for a next time, if it comes.

1. Pair experienced players together with players with same amount of experience (join date and number of posts or something).
2. Everybody say more about exactly when they can do a sweat session (i.e. 18-20 ET mon-fri, and 12-20 ET sat-sun)
3. Everybody tell us how often they would do a session like this (i.e. two times a week)
4. Everybody says something about what they feel/think are their weaknesses, eventually strenghts.
5. Eventually session preferences like video/live, mic or text
6. Stats. A 16/14 and 25/22 is not suiting very well together i think.

And as before:
-Limit
-Site (Dont think this is very important)

Anybody have some ideas about how it is to discuss a video vs live sweating? I think videos maybe is a lot better than live because of the pause option.

I like the video option better because then time matching becomes less of a consideration. But have a live sweat session set for tonight.

Not to discourage you guys but this is going to be incredibly hard.

Instead of everyone stating "I'm available at xx time" you should just designate a time that most people can, and go from there.

Its easier than you think if many want 1 session pr week.

From what I've seen at FR it is still beneficial to be paired with someone who has less experience. If you are the more experienced player you are still forced to talk through your thought process. Also, the idea is to get paired up with different people each month to be exposed to different styles, etc.

From my experience, there hasn't been a whole lot of trouble meeting up with others.

As for the video idea -- that's interesting and could be something to try. These are pretty free form so if your partner is up for it you can do whatever.

Thanks for setting this up AndyEB, I've PM'd my guy so let's see how it goes. It's like a (um, very heterosexual) blind date or something.

Hey if it's not too late or if someone else wants to jump in as well I'd love to do this too. I would be fine joining w/ two other guys who have already paired up for a group of three if anyone is up for it.
NL50 on FTP - Played cash seriously for ~a year now and have played as high as NL400 for a significant # of hands.

i could do it globetrotter, my guy had troubles then disappeared. Timezone and site?
BTW jallabar pm if u cant get on aim and we'll sort anoither out.

Or if anyone new wants to join, anyone drops out, ect I'm in. You can throw me on the waiting list or something
