Tourney replays on PokerStars

Maybe this is old news to most here but I'll post anyway. On PokerStars you can watch some final table replays of their tournaments. Since I'm fairly new to online poker I found it to be informative. Seeing how they play certain hands in certain positions etc is pretty cool because everyone's hand is exposed. Sorta like watching the WSOP on TV except you get so many more hands in a shorter amount of time. I recommend this to anyone who has yet to play in a tournament. Although you'll have to get a feel for your own opponents maybe it will help you in some small way...Like folding A-rag in any position is usually a very good call!

Good advice about watching these replays. I watch them quite often and it's amazing how many times everyone has a total crap hand and a single face card is ahead, and a min raise takes the pot. As long as you understand these guys have been playing for 7 or 8 hrs and know each others game by the time they hit the final table. A must watch for players who make the FT and can't seem to win.

It's nice to see, but it's not fair. Many players look at your open cards, see your strategy and make lots of notes of you.

Catch 22. You are at a giant final table and possibly about to win your years salary. They don't replay the 10 cent turbos. I would trade a little transparency for a 6 figure win.

Online poker has some odd quirks. Another is the fact that only online have I ever played where every mucked card at the river can be looked up in the replay or HUD or whatever.

I love watching these, it really helps me with some tough late tournament spots, that there isn't a lot of info on at the forums.
