I never understood this 'first' thing everyone does. Seems moronic to me. I never look at the person and think "He's cool." Let's leave that sort of thing to that 'other' site where it happens constantly! Maybe I am alone in this, who knows. Anyhoo, about to watch the video, can't wait!

, the J5 shove..
I liked the point you made about getting hung up on analyzing the biggest pots.
This is a realy good consept, I think it might make it a lot easier to feel comfortable quicker, when taking shots at higher stakes.
This has been a problem of mine moving up, even though I'v had good bankroll management, and felt that I have an edge. I get stuck in a rut trying to make sense of the adjustments i should make, where frustration eventually lead me to play badly and having to move back down.
Cant wait for 2/4

Great video! Crack some more jokes though, youre good at them..
The overlimp with 33.. I do this too vs UTG limp, but im not sure why and you didnt really explain why either? My range is exclusively 22/33/44 and suited babyaces. I don't think it's exploitable which is why I keep doing it I guess.
I thought him having a huge calling range is why you should raise T6s and basically any playable hand on btn? He was never 3betting you, and you should feel pretty comfortable in your abilities to outplay him postflop
Why did you choose to 3bet AQs in UTG+1 vs LAG UTG opener? Even though it let you shove J5s vs him (awesome btw, and really shows why players 4betting pot are making such a huge mistake) I feel like it turns your hand into somewhat of a bluff plus it's not like youre ever getting squeezed off your hand and even if it lets others in, AQs plays well multiway.

I'm guessing someone wrote "first" and it was deleted. I think that it is often done ironically. I'm pretty sure that whoever wrote it wasn't trying to be cool.

Hi, I'm a 2/4 player and I just moved down to .5/1 after a big downswing coupled with a need to cashout a good portion of my roll. I find that your analysis of the different types of players at this level is very much in line with what I've remarked over my ~2k hands so far there. Solid vid overall, and I loved your mix of hand analysis coupled with general talk specific to the level.

Very nice vid. I also just moved down to 100NL (fuck you very much Prima network for freezing most of my roll god dammit!). Excellent analysis of many of the 100NL fish - the nits and the super-loose passives. However, I am noticing quite a few players that have much better stats and are semi-decent players (21/18/3 - types). Obviously table selection is key and its best to just find the fishiest tables, but I was wondering what you thought of these guys in doing your 100NL research. IMO, they are similar preflop to a lot of 200NL players, but have a higher degree of exploitable tendencies postflop - i.e., not mixing up their lines enough, making bad river value bets or missing good ones, etc.
Anything else you have noticed about the better 100NL players to focus on and exploit?

The best way to exploit the top regs at any limit is to game select better. 
HERE HERE! Seriously though, FWF, you are a natural at doing vids. The flow between analyzing a hand and discussing theory is second to none, and I've watched many vids from both here and CR.
