Brann6 0 Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 All of you with half a brain should read 2+2 daily.With very few exceptions, most of them are "herd" players. Whatever book is hot right now is how they try to play. Failing that, they always revert to the weak-tight play DS and MM are so fond of. You need to know how the herd is playing guys.Just about every decent pokermind has stopped posting there, and who can blame them? Come up with an idea, a strategy, a concept that doesn't follow the DS mantra and the nits nitpick you to death in their cliqueish high school mindset.Brann Link to post Share on other sites

The HSMTT board still has good content and posts by top players. Link to post Share on other sites
Sheiky 0 Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 BIGGEST maybe, MOST ARROGANT douche still goes to DS.I think DS is more of a pervy freak imo, Malmuth just seems like a horrible horrible person who was abused by his parents as a child Link to post Share on other sites

looshle 6 Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 I wonder why a huge percentage of the 2+2 regular posting community write better strat than his own authors? Maybe because they are constantly trying to learn and get better and are open minded, and not some 60 year old old time weak tight nitjob who now has to worry more about book sales because he cant beat games like he used to?Either A) accept that you have to learn yourself or B) the most likely and easiest option, hire a new writer off the forum + slap a 2+2 logo on his book = profit. That's the info everyones coming to the site for anyways. Link to post Share on other sites

I am still in contact with him.He sent me the story for me to post on my blog:Original Two Plus Two Malmuth limiting strategy posts story Cool! The reason I didn't post the link to your blog is that I couldn't read the message from MM in it - it's too small and when I click it to make it bigger it is still too small to read. And then when I click it again it brings me to some homepage or something. Nice work breaking the story though . Link to post Share on other sites

timwakefield 68 Posted August 15, 2008 Author Share Posted August 15, 2008 From 4:A mod posted this: mason eventually said this:"Hi Everyone:We have been discussing this internally and have taken into consideration the reaction here. Our decision is to table this for now and not to change anything on site. However, we did want to bring it to everyone's attention in case we need to re-open this issue sometime in the future."And another mod posted this:el-oh-el. I just went back and read the thread again. Such gold in there.In the end everyone tried to convince Mason that he was retarded for trying to keep quality poker discussion off of twoplustwo.com and he just kept plugging away about how strategy discussion hurt book sales.Even when he was defeated by unanimous decision he stuck to his conviction that the site was better off without good strategy discussion and he only tabled the idea for the future after several mods threatened to quit. emphasis added Link to post Share on other sites
