Woo! Have been waiting for this one!

Sorry about the delay, it looks like our server had been having some issues (I'm sure some of you saw an error here or there) and I had to fix it before the video would publish.

no prob. as long as i get it, that's all that counts. Just thought I'd let u know that I wasn't able to download the mp4 version of this video. it gave me an error.

thanks

This guy runs terrible.

First off I wanna say I really like wilt's videos and the series thus far, even if I did disagree with some things in this video. I actually ended up writing a lot about it as I was watching it, so I put it in wordpad and then on pastebin.

If you scroll down you can copy and paste the text from the bottom window into notepad so it's easier to read.

Ok, looked the vid now the second time and some questions came up. Like to hear your comments on that:

~21: You chek behind w/ A7 as the pfr on 526rb against a 35/10 guy. I guess his most likely cards are broadways, pp and BIGGER suited connectors which all miss the board. Isn't this a great spot to cbet to prevent him from drawing out on us with his 7To? And why dont we 2nd barrel the Q, which should create just more fold equity?

~42:30: You hold QTo on AQ6tt against a 18/9 guy and decide to check behind. Do i misunderstand sth. or is the only reason for checking behind that you want to induce a steal attempt from him? I mean, sure you get only called by stronger hands; so actually you want to protect your hand (because if you gonna call a bet later, you could as well bet out yourself w/ the advantage that you're protecting your hand) in case he holds a gutshot or fd, but you think you finally get more by giving him a chance to make stab at the pot, right?

~49:30: Here you hold 99 on a AT7tt board vs. a 13/4 nit. You say that firing one barrel on the flop is fine. I don't get your point.. With 13/4 he is more on the passive side, so imo the vast majority of his range are in fact Aces; Futher it's unlikely that he'll bluff you out on a A high board, since he's threatened of the ace. What's the idea behind continuation betting here?

~55:20: Flop comes KKK and you decide not to bluff raise villain's cbet w/ QJo, which is OK against a 9/5 nit who won't believe your raise.
Under what circumstances would you raise here? I mean it's so obvious that you missed the board that you can bluff raise under rare circumstances. What are these? Would you mind giving some examples?

~56:10: You have TT w/ a pfr in front of you. You like to call here, which is imo not the best play?? TT is a very strong hand and we often face AK/AQ or worse hands in a HU pot. By raising we achieve axactly this. Getting HU w/ a hand that's most likely the best hand. Further we gain initiative and even have the possibility of taking the pot down preflop. Why do you want to play a multiway pot and risking overcards which are much more likely to his s.b.? Imo the factors for raising outweigh the ones for calling by far?...
Hoping you elaborate a bit on that.

That's it so far. Thank you very much in advance : )

Hi Guitarizt, Can you put the specific questions from you text on here. As it is difficult for Aaron to get the time to go through the whole post. Glad you like the series.
