How to ruin a promising series with crappy video quality. Couldn't watch more than 10 minutes of it, HUD is horrible and masks bet sizing. This is barely acceptable for a member video, but totally subpar for a paying training site.

Sorry if it was that rough for you. I was able to see everything fine though maybe my eyes are tainted from all that teamviewer coaching =/.

We will have another full ring video to replace this one but for now this will have to do. Sorry, like I say in the video, the HUD is bad, but IMO not unwatchable at all.

Decent vid IMO, HUD is annoying but pretty watchable. Chuck, What winrate do you think is achievable in this games??

I liked the video, but also had a hard time to see the potsizes. I guess that problem can already be solved if you switch off your own stats, since they are the ones that mask the pot.
Looking forward to the next video!

At risk of belaboring the point about the HUD, but hopefully to offer a constructive suggestion, how about setting up an alternative HUD config when you make videos?

I know reads are important to the videos but a HUD with:

VP / PFR / AQ

and everything else moved to popups

I'm not great at HEM/OMgr but I would be willing to try to set this up if it would improve the vids.

I already changed it. This is probably the only FR vid(unless we remake this), so it won't even be an issue anyways. Thanks though.

Not even half way through the recording I knew it was going to be an issue, but I didn't have time to change it and rerecord because of scheduling issues. Fwiw, I don't think it's much worse than the majority of FR multitable vids, but again, sorry to those who took issue.

8ptbbs/100 isn't unusual, and I've seen higher.

I think that river bet was terrible. He has a missed LD that's folding always, flush thats calling almost always, fullhouse that's calling always, or a K that will probably fold, but who knows down here.

Obviously the guy played that hand weird. But I think his call on the river is pretty standard. What are you betting flop, turn and river with? Your whole range there is pretty much air and a small amount of flushes going for thin value. Every once in a while maybe you fire a set again on the turn.

I would raise that hand a majority of the time UTG. I think you can bet that flop. The blinds both have 4 random cards and you have position, an 8 and the NLD. I think it's a good spot to put some pressure on with the NL if you make it and take down the pot. I wouldn't expect to get c/r here hardly ever either.

What do you think about leading smaller to try and a call from worse on that river? Like half pot or less. I think your hand looks a lot like a bare low. I don't think your ever getting calls from worse and I doubt you fold out better two pairs. You might get a call from A2** and quarter him.

On table four I would raise that from the CO. It's a hand I would want to try and get HU in pos or take it down pre. Seems like limping and seeing a multiway flop is burning money.

I think you can shove over his lead on that river. You have two ace blockers. He's quartering you sometimes, but i think you are quartering him more often. If he had A25* I would expect him to be puting more money in the pot at some point. It's def close.
