Poker1 log of changes and additions: 2010-05

2010-05-24

Added or completed entries or pages… 

Mike Caro “In the beginning” mantra explained

Proof that you must play the right poker limits

Wiesenberg (pan): 056 Sophie hosts a seder

Wiesenberg (pan): 057 Sophie asks about booze

Wiesenberg (pan): 058 Sophie and the bay area play

Wiesenberg (pan): 059 Sophie plays in the big game

Wiesenberg (pan): 060 Sophie learns winning element

The secret to mixed-doubles poker success (previously part of another entry — see explanation below)

Changed entries or pages

Fixed entry for bankroll requirements in “Formula for mixed-doubles tournaments + bankrolls” (was in three confusing text parts instead of one table). Plus, divided entry, with separate ones for bankroll (“Safer requirements for poker bankrolls”) and mixed doubles (“The secret to mixed-doubles poker success”).

Removed first paragraph in “Tuesday sessions 34…,” which pointed to an old online forum that is no longer operational. (Glitch reported by Thomas Foster.)

Divided final paragraph in “Tuesday session 34…” into “Bonus strategy No. 7” and “Bonus strategy No 8.” Previously these both appeared in a single text block with only one heading. (Glitch reported by Thomas Foster.)

Minor fixes.

Functionality added, discontinued, or changed…

Changed levels of comments and replies from three to four (meaning three levels of replies for each original comment). Previously the levels had been reduced from five to three, because five got very narrow (each level being indented to the right), but four is now deemed to be a good compromise.

Other…

Removed “Mike Caro poker word is Bluffs” from Spotlight to reduce list from 18 to the normal 17 choices, fitting all on one page

Mike Caro poker word is Gone

Changed entries or pages

Fixed logic error in “A game that will electrify your cardroom.” The text referred to hand number #5 having a guaranteed 3 points, but it has been destroyed. (This glitch reported by Brian in comment below entry.) Also changed wording slightly throughout for clarity and modified rule so that zero-point hands still eligible for prize money have their final card left face up.

Edited “MCU poker tip: When to hesitate” for clarity. The use of “instantly” seemed contradictory and has been replaced with “too quickly.” Other wording was slightly modified. (This glitch was reported by e-mail from a visitor who chose not to be given attribution.)

Fixed “Tuesday session…” entries, based on latest glitch reports from Thomas Foster. Session 22 — “know” to “known;” session 24 — removed extraneous characters after bullet point and corrected suit-characters that hadn’t been converted correctly (also added missing bold type to some headings); session 26 — “serious” to “series;” and session 27 — “sympathized” to “sympathize.”

Minor fixes

Functionality added, discontinued, or changed…

None

Other…

Added “Mike Caro poker word is Gone” to Spotlight (but haven’t yet removed oldest entry, so list contains 18 entries, which is one too many to fit on display with out linking backward to “No more entries”)
