Do those who manage to play every game, get any extra treat??? Like by example a lil package hobnobsmix by example with in it: milkchocolate, milkchocolate orange, hobnobs minis, Chocolate creams and vanilla creams? ;) ;) ;) ;) ;)

Yep the cavalry are on the way, us injuns better hide! ;)

I will try to play when possible
-
Could we perhaps make it clear, that even though this is a team event, telling cards when two teammembers are in a hand and there is raise, before the fold is absolutely not going, well at least from my view, not sure perhaps i am alone with this view???
and I just noted there should be bit more information about rules really, like
if one teammember has 372 chips, and another raises 300 and the one with 372 goes all in, than a fold, this is pretty to obvious. Yes of course we try to not knock team mates out, even though sometimes this can"t be avoided.
But the above are both situations i saw today at the table, and even if they would happen in my team they would annoy me a tiny bit

Have to agree 100% with Gina.. Team poker is a grey area, but at the end of the day blatant chip dumps are unacceptable in any form of poker.. there are hundreds of discussions that have been posted about this so i wont go on about it.. I also saw on the same table a player limp mid position for 200 chips a short stacked team member go all in for 493 chips the small blind big blind and limper all fold!!..
-
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.
-
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.
-
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...
-
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
-
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.
Rob
-
I think I"m a green lol
-
lol I think I am green too
even though I follow nearly the same strategy before FT, one exception though
I do the check raise, but not to trap, might be an idea to overbet to show i have the best hand not sure though
The point is as we most times are more players it is nearly impossible to not get chips from a team mate or take one out, we all try hard to avoid this, but it happens sometimes.
So I treat all teammates as team mates and none of them as opponents, so only have reds and blues
For me it is team till the end even when it is an uncatchable lead of APAT, and even though i really would like to become runner up as I would love to get the hobnob prize :), but this is anyway hard work and nearly impossible, so i can just sit and enjoy, and perhaps someone has pity with me and gives me a hobnob package just so :D
-
I played for APAT last night, please shove me on the list!!!
-
I have been playing like wizzlet / Rob above with the exception that on the final table I will go easy on team mates (folding to short stack raises; only raising them with a hand I can"t possibly fold) until an APAT victory is assured. After that I assume it"s a free for all.
"Team play" is not really a natural fit for poker of any sort, as it is essentially a very "selfish" game, but it can be good fun provided both sides observe the proprieties. I agree with Gina, announcing hands goes beyond the proprieties.
It can also backfire rather nastily. In the Home Internationals (where we were hoping to overtake England for the silver medals), John (MintTrav) Murray called my short stacked all in with AQoff, on the button with 52 off, hoping to chip me up. He hit a 5. Oh, how the England team laughed. :"(

Saw the Omaha/8 last night. Congrats to Chuckydb on his win. There was only one player in it at heads up. I sense weakness in the APAT guys playing Omaha/8. Ok they know how to check down on mass when one of our LPPL players was on a very short stack. So I for one will start playing Omaha/8 in July.
I think I"m going to have to get myself some training!! ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
