Take my advice and just 3 bet or fold trash hands pre oop. Attempting to play them postflop is just suicidal.
I didnt say she played shit, i actually posted invaluable advice for her.
Gl to her in the future
Very adult Dubai - thank you. Guess we have to know our audiences. Im not the one who is somehow offended by being called "her"  Maybe im not adult enough to be insecure just yet, c'est la vie. it's nothing to do with insecurity, it's manners and common courtesy.

Its absolutely ridiculous and just a typical female view. As if any "non female" would be offended by being called him

Loving your work Trace. Turn this into a long running diary thread please!
Oh no but thanks, but obv if anyone wants to stake me into the WSOP I'll start booking my flight! we had it practically in the bag with Des at Walsall last year iirc, until the running man ruined it all! you did as well. you were 1/2 way through filming your celeb interviews when it all kicked off. soooo close Ah yes the running man. When Claw said the running man I assumed she meant Kinboshi. Normally we can blame him for everything. let's blame him too. nevermind, Des is probably just saving the pennies so we can do it full VIP style next year  You both referred to Kin as 'him' here i don't see the difference.

did you decide to experiment with this new gus hansen style before or after you got staked?
Lol - I didn't play entirely ala 'Gus' although his way of thinking through the hands certainly gave me more confidence and as I said in my report I really didn't get any hands at all - ever - so i was really pleased to get as far as I did and I think the Gus book certainly helped int hat way.. I was intending all along to play with more confidence and a bit more creative play and this was based on both reading more about poker and taking advice from other players. I certainly wasn't going to play any differently with other peoples money - in fact in my report I mention the fact i was mindful of that and slowed down.

I surprised I really need to explain the difference but if I do.....
In his post, Dubai at no point introduced Trace as the subject of the 'she' 'her' whatever he later used. That is the context in which those words are usually used. Of course it would be ridiculous if instead of saying 'he' 'she' 'him' her' when referring to someone one always used their name. In the case of Dubai's first post, had he referred to Trace by name in the first instance, it would have been perfectly acceptable etiquette to use 'she' 'her' throughout the rest of the post.
In the example Flushy has quoted, Kinboshi had already been introduced by name, so it was clear who the 'he' 'him' was referrring to.

Claw is absolutely correct. She knows this because she is a woman. I know this because I understand women. People who don't get this don't understand women. Such people prob have little or no sex.

Or that Nah, the tone was poor, it came across like someone butting into a conversation and criticising the person who started it without acknowledging they were actually there. Quite probably that's not how it was meant, but it's how it read.
