board suggestion, and newbie question
you might want to make a Fish room, if they don't know what a fish is ,then they should start reading there.
Make a sticky thread with FAQ, and poker terms, and beginner links. Now for my newbie question. I saw a web sight that 3 charts for delt hands and the weight of the hands one for new players one for good players one for pro type players I wish I would have saved it. Does anybody know what I'm talking about, or have a link to something similar? |

I'd be skeptical
with varying starting hands based on ability. My thought is the ability factors in being able to adjust your starting hands based on the make-up of the table. I'm assuming -- perhaps incorrectly -- that this chart would indicate that a skilled player could play more starting hands than a beginner. But playing more starting hands -- no matter how skilled you are -- is the only the right move if the table has players who will make them pay off for you.

What I meant was more of a cheat sheet that tells you the weight of the hands. I hope that makes more sense

Chart
You can check out
David Sklansky is generally considered the authortity on this kind of number crunching (Google for lots on him), though lately people have been saying his advice is too tight to take advantage of the post poker-boom craziness out there. |

I recognize that chart. It's an EV (Expected Value) chart based on actual results from a smaple size of a couple million (if I am remembering correctly) hands played at .
They have a nifty little tool where you can sort the EVs any way you want, based on the number of opponents, position, etc. I gave them a pretty solid look about a year ago... pretty interesting stuff. Worth checking out. |

The thing about statistics is some people will get in the habit of becoming complete rocks, I agree the stats are very important to know especially knowing how many OUTS you have in any particular hand. But knowing what kind of players you're playing with is better then any statistic out there.
