Almost all of these hands are meaningless without the stack sizes. And, again, they're unconverted so they're a pain to read anyway.

So... why should I spend my time wading through unconverted hand histories that have no meaning because the stack sizes are missing? You absolutely can't underestimate the importance of stack sizes in No-Limit poker. Something which is an obvious shove at one stack size can be an equally obvious fold at another... and maybe an equally obvious call at a third. By leaving the stack sizes out, you've intentionally tried to cripple any real discussion of the hands.

If these threads were a little bit more readable -- if the hands were converted and contained all the needed information -- these could easily be the most entertaining group of "How-To" threads on the forums. A bit like a new Bucklox... only more complicated and he seems to be serious.
