| Session review idea(from 2+2 forum) Hey, I was reading on 2+2 FR forum, they're conducting a session review for those interested in participating. The whole idea is to get a no. of people who's interested in getting their sessions reviewed, pair them up, according to the limits they're playing and get them to review each other's session. I think that's a great idea for players to improve and at the same time, help each other out. What do you guys think? I'm hoping to get partnered on 2+2. At the same time, I thought it'll be good if cardschat members can do something similar. |

| Micro limit review session FAQ from 2+2 ------------------------------------------------------------------- This is a basic FAQ Thread for review sessions. The intention is that each stickied Session review post will include a link to this but this thread itself will not be stickied. Q: What is all this session review stuff ive been reading about? A: Session reviews are where a group of enthusiastic 2+2ers get paired up and exchange up to 200 hands from a playing session. Each reviews the others play of the hands, writes down their thoughts and sends to their buddy. The two buddies then discuss hands of interest as much as they feel necessary Q: Why would I want to participate in review sessions? A: Maybe a few review sessions will confirm that you are playing great. However may review session participants find that their review buddy can objectively highlight areas of their game that need work. This is a good thing cos when you know of a problem you can work to correct it. People chose to do reviews for a variety of reasons. Some do it cos they know they have big leaks, some suspect leaks but arent sure, some cant work out why they arent crushing the game even though they have read SSH and some just want a 'checkup'. Essentially a review session can help u detect common mistakes and trends in your game...you generally wont get this posting just a couple of hands to the forum Q: Well, this all seems kinda tough....Im not a very good player.....will I look silly if my buddy is a much better player than I am? A: If this is the case then probably session reviews are perfect for you, really! As long as you are prepared to put in the time reviewing someone else session youll benefit immensely. Up to a certain point, the more effort you put into session reviews the more you get out of it. Q: Great! I want in....what do I do? A: Its easy. Just lurk here at 2+2 and wait for a post - currently every 2nd friday/weekend - from the review organiser (currently Housecalls), follow the instructions when you see it send him a personal message (PM). Then wait for the pairings. Q: How long should the review session process take? A: The entire process should be done within a 2 week cycle. Typically you should aim to be in contact with your review buddy within a day or two of session pairups being announced, then exchange hand histories soon after (hint: have them all ready prepared and ready to send), do the review as soon as you can (allow AT LEAST 2 hours...sometimes can take much more), send review comments and discuss.... Q: Do you have any other hints and tips? A: Yes, See the contents of Hints And Tips v2.0 and Question and Answer from a potential review session participant and Discussion on Preparing Hand Histories for a Session Q: Are there review sessions for 6maxers etc? A: Yes...search for session review posts in the "Small Stakes Short Handed" Forum Well, thats a start. If you have any questions that you think we should include here them please PM myself or Housecalls and we will update them here Thankyou AussieBattler and Housecalls |

| re: Session review idea(from 2+2 forum) poker I love this idea to be honest. Chris done a live commenty of a $24 buy-in MTT on Full tilt that I final tabled a few months back. I can certainly participate with someone else on $50-$100 NL. I still have to read the large wall of text OP though |

| What! You're being unfaithful on another forum? Seriously, the idea is good, and I speak from experience because I've been doing this with someone off and on for a couple of months. Very worthwhile to get someone else's perspective on a session/tourney. It's a different perspective than just posting one or two hands for analysis. |

| Whole session reviews. WOW, thats a big commitment of time. Longer than it took to play that whole session probably. Where will we find the time to read new posts here, respond and still play poker. Personaly I am way past the multi-tasking phase of life. |

It could be just a few orbits of a cash table, or one table of a SnG, or a group of hands exported from Pokertracker. And if it's all hands from a session or short tourney, most don't require any comments (fold, fold, fold, ....) |
