I was watching a SilentAssassin3's Cardrunner video. He did a $2/$4 (six max). He kept stressing the importance of putting people on a range of hands. I've been working hard on that as it's one of the most important skills in poker.

I read tons of hand posts on here, and some never show the showdown and leave us guessing as to the other persons' hole cards. That has driven me crazy.

I thought of a fun idea to post a hand, but not the showdown until posters have time to guess the other person's hole cards. I think it would be only right to put the other person's PAHUD stats eg.(23/14/3.2) or whatever to give a clue of his hand range.

I think it would be fun to see who's best at putting people not on a range, but the actual hand. And when the actual hand is guessed, the op can let everybody know he/she guessed it right and there's a winner!

fun game and also a tool to learn to read hands better.

I don't know how to post a hand yet, and i don't want to hear the bullshit because i don't. I'll figure it out and we can get started, or somebody that knows how to post a hand can do it and we can get to guessing.

Good idea? bad?

The reason people dont post the results is because the result tend to ruin the discussion since alot of ppl are results oriented. Not because its fun to guess a hand, sounds like a retarded game to me.

what wackass site is this nigga?

I agree with Saki

I think it would be fun to see who's best at putting people not on a range, but the actual hand

thats a retarded game ...
Nobody , not Jesus and not even Chuck Norris can put someone on a exact hand and be 100% sure about their choice

The best u can do is put people on narrow hand ranges.
like : i am pretty sure he has AK here 70% of the time
or : As played and with my notes he probably has a FD 30% , total air 10% and a medium decent hand 40% and an absolute monster 20%
or : As played QQ or JJ are the only hands that make sense

but this circumstances make it very clear why your game wouldnt work.
It just would be a wild guessing game till someone gets lucky and hits ...

cant see any fun in it.

U see what i did there with A8 ? He 4 bets and there we go insta jam A8 : ---booooom -- . hahahaha ( Krantz)
