I hope you understand that.
This is something different that a lot of poker players post on a regular basis.
It's VERY hard for a player to post a hand that they won, and think that they played well. Because why would they even post it?
As a result, as a community, we have to try and take the hand apart, draw specific conclusions about it, help them out, but then ALSO generalize it into what we can think about their game as a whole. And try to give advice on how they can improve the entirety of their game.
So sure, if hero won the hand he might not post it. But just because the hero won the hand does not mean that he played it well...
Some kid buys in full to a 1/2 game. There's a $4 straddle.
8 people call the straddle. A bad reg shoves for $300. Kid calls with 77. Flops a set, and beats the AA of reg. Kid never posts the hand, and he moves on. 3 weeks later, same kid buy in full to a 1/2 game. There's a $4 straddle, 8 people call. Same bad reg makes it $65. Kid calls with 77. Flop comes 7AK. Kid bets, reg shoves, kid snaps, and loses to AA. Kid posts the hand. When we explain the errors of his ways, hopefully it will help him to not make the mistake that he made in hand 2 AND hand 1. ducy?
