hi_am_chris:
To be honest i dont think it helps them anyways, it doesnt help them build stacks and just means they bust just before the final table or limp into the final table.

Maybe i have got this wrong but there are individual prizes too and at the moment i think the team aspect applies more to LPPL than it does it APat because of the points differential.

I might make a marginal fold when it"s 50 50 because it"s one of my teams players but i dont think think it benefits the team to have medium/short stacks, the points are top heavy too and you need to accumulate to get them.

MintTrav:
Players have been getting lambasted on the LPPL forum all week for taking out their own team members.

Whichever you do, someone will say that it"s wrong.

Scousebill:
I have colour identified both sets of players. I think the problems arise when some people just can"t be arsed to find out who their teammates are until they have took most of their stack...

Starshine:
As we are not this much of players in it, it really can"t be avoided to take a team mate out, or take some chips of them.

You really can not fold very good hands,

I can understand them complaining when this happens,
only their is teamplay and teamplay,
not betting a lot when being in same hand, maybe folding a middle hand things like this are still ok

telling the hand when i reraise a team mate so that he folds is over the top from my view

as well folding for 72 chips is a joke, would be different for 720 chips but just 72 not even a very tight player would do this

wizzlet:
My own early (before final table) team strategy is:
1. Don"t trap fellow team players - eg check raise / slow play etc
2. Don"t bluff or steal from fellow team players
3. I will overbet or possibly shove if I"m confident of having the best hand post flop.
4. If there is no LPPL between me and APAT short stacks in the blinds then I will fold unless I have a monster. This does depend on relative stack sizes. I"m ok with limp or raise folding blind on blind if the BB is short, I can afford it, and it helps the BB make FT to score points.
5. I will fold if a short stack open shoves and I am last to act, if there"s an LPPL behind me I will call/isolate if I think I"m good so that at least the chips stay in APAT hands.

In summary, I play nornally but try to look after short stacks as we near the points. Sadly sometimes instict overides everything and I revert to normal play   :-[

Once on FT I just play poker and team play is a distraction. I think this applies to all of us.

I mark APAT red, LPPL blue and APAT that don"t team play at any time green. None of my "rules" apply to the greens and I treat them as standard opponents throughout. (there"s only a couple of greens)

I guess as APAT build an uncatchable lead then perhaps team "orders" go out of the window for some, but if that"s the case I may as well go back to other more lucrative games/sites.
