For the TEAM Poker debate...
AMRN:
Was pretty wierd when it folded to Ant in the SB who shoved for less than 1.5x on my BB and i had to fold. Bit annoying earlier on though when i was the shortstack and he was chip leader and he shoved from SB on my BB!
Certainly makes for some abnormal situations!!!
Sef:
I think soft play n mild collusion should be encouraged in a team game..... not to the point your telling each other what you have or things like that but its a team game after all, in any team game you all work for each other so whats the difference? No point calling it a team game if you cant play as a team. IMO....... But hey ho.... rules are rules so you make do. ;)

Team poker as a concept is ridiculous but can be fun

Any team poker event should get a warning label slapped on it.
"This event may contain traces of soft play"

:D Absolutely agree with George and Leigh, it just adds another dynamic to the game.

I don"t recall Paul H being annoyed when i shoved his BB with AA.
FYI,I wasn"t chip leader,far from it (11k at 200/400) and you had 11bb"s so not so short and holding AQ?
Did you a favour imo,how can you find this annoying? More annoying for the people who could have knocked you out and didn"t for the sake of the team,only to be less rewarded individually on the night themselves,surely?

Think you missed my point Ant, which was that in this team game, there are times when it is correct to fold the good hand if it benefits the short stacked team mate. When you shoved blind on blind when I was shortstacked, I only have 83o so clearly was never calling - a walk would have been massive for me at that point. Conversely, when you were short and I was deep, your shoves were always allowed through to ensure you gained some chips.
