Reply-To: dealer@warmfuzzies.com From: dealer Subject: [b13.10120] Holdem Game Broadcast Message(*) % I don't expect you to sit by the computer all day waiting for an e-mail. % However, earlier this hand you put in a bet (calling from the Small Blin % then me checking from the Big Blind with an Advance Action) which result % in the action being immediately back to you. You didn't act for another % hours. Did you at least stick around to make sure the dealer received y % bet, and that the result was what you expected? If so, you would have % realized that it was your turn to act again. % An e-mail tournament is going to be inherently slow, but there are many % to speed things up. And some of the ways (like the example above) don't % even require Advance Actions or sitting in front of the computer all day ! -- Ed T -- _____________________________________________________________________________ !
