The one thing that we were told in class, over and over, was to consider the end user. My experience with writing programs (in the 1980s, "code" was a noun, not a verb) is not extensive, but it was enough to teach me a few things. At one time PokerStars had a player's committee. You're right, this doesn't work without input from the players. I'm sure that my wife will enjoy reading this post.Īs always, questions or comments are welcome (see box below.) He also said that he understood the other playing taking some time to calm down. He said that a lot of players looked at it as I did, that a hand should never be missed.

The re-entry question was the last of the webinar, and the pro closed it by saying that both I and "re-entry guy" had valid points. Other players might get tired, or drunk, or whatever, and that gives me an edge when I'm in a hand with that opponent. If I play an online tournament that lasts for nine hours, I will have a pee jar on my desk and I'm going to stay at that desk and play every single hand.

One of my poker rules is, "Never miss a hand." I typed into the chat box that the best way to get a good hand is to not miss it when it comes. The poker pro teaching the webinar said that "re-entry guy" should definitely take a little time to get focused. I just finished watching a 1.25 hour webinar on range building.* Someone asked whether, when he was knocked out of a re-entry tournament and got flustered, he should take some time to get his head together and decide what to do, or would it be better to jump back into the tournament and not miss a hand. When I told first told her that I use a pee jar when I play online poker, her response was a loud, "Oh Gross!" Of course, in another tournament the next day, I called her into my office when I was using that jar, and I was told "Oh gross!" as well as, "That's disgusting!" (Believe it or not, whether to use a pee jar is an issue that is discussed in the poker community): My wife sometimes has, well, delicate sensibilities.
