I think it would be nice to have a particular forum dedicated to reviewing hand histories, explaining one's thought process through a particular hand, and giving advice on how to play them differently. We'd have to be careful about using it to whine about bad beats though. Otherwise, I think it would be an extremely useful learning tool.

It's coming soon. We are going to have a great partner with some new cutting edge software for displaying and storing hand histories.

The site is:

http://www.felttable.com/

They are still working out some of the kinks in the software and are in beta, but it is going to be a sweet program.

Ok, I'll bite, what are your thoughts on posting hand histories?

The software they are developing on FeltTable will make the hand completely anonymous. Posting replacements like "Hero" for your hand, seat 1, etc.

I don't see much harm posting an occassional hand, especially if your looking for advice on how a hand is played, if you played the hand good/bad, etc.

It's kind of the point of a strategy forum, to improve your game

It would be a good thing if it has its own forum and a better set up than your typical everything written out. I just have a hatred for the hand histories mainly because the people who post them, abuse them. They post them way too often and every post of theirs contains the hand history and usually do not provide enough background of information of how people have been playing to that point.

Points noted, Hand History Analysis will be in its own forum (I already have it setup, just have to flip a switch) we'll try to strongly suggest that people use the hand history tool to make nice graphical displays of the hand histories., and also give the extra info about the players involved, so our members can help them arrive at a better decision or opinion.

Looking forward to when the switch is flipped... quite enjoy reading everyone's thoughts on how certain hands were played, or should be played.

I've been trying to avoid having too many forums since we are a small community, but if this is what the members want I dont' have a problem opening up a new forum for posting.

I understand not wanting too many forums but I do think, espescially with a name like "pokerstrategyforums", that this place could use at least one section dedicated to hand analysis. Even if it isn't game specific, just a place to discuss poker hands woudl be nice! A "hand analysis and advice" forum would be a great addition!
