rrumsey, episode two is already up

yah face palm for me,....

Very nice Video and nice Posts,

Thank you

Love the vid but could you talk slightly slower? It's hard to keep up sometimes.
I like how you used the wizard for deeper analyzes

Wow someone who talks as fast as me!! we should make a vid and see if anyone can keep up haha. Great series just what I was looking for.

Time Link to 01:02:55

Think the term u are looking for is 'lower variance play'

Haha yeah, and also more profitable long term

Hey, at the end of the video you refer to shoving all in with A7o in early position, but you suggest only if the blinds are going to go up. Could you explain why?

Basically because if the blinds are going up, then we are more likely to be blinded out/etc soon because we will have less spots to shove/fold before we get hit by the blinds multiple times and lose fold equity. Therefore, if blinds are about to go up, we should shove a little wider. Also A7o plays pretty terrible vs. typical calling ranges, as is explained later in the series. PokerStove A7o vs. something like 77+ ATs AJo, or 66+ A9s ATo, or 77+ AJo AJs, etc and then compare that to the calculation of JTs, 76s, or even T9o etc and you will see what I mean. It is dominated by almost everything that calls you and the kicker is almost irrelevant.

Hi, how do you take notes when playing so many tables?

Post session review?
Sit out all tables and make note?
Only during beginning/end of sessions when playing less tables?

Thanks

Hey I generally don't take many notes to be honest, that being said sometimes I will just take it normally and just try to be quick. I take short notes like "shoves wide bvb" "3b shoved 87o bb vs btn" etc to save time and also as they are easier to read in the future to help (especially when playing lots of tables).

I would never sit out of any table to take a note.

I never did this because I didn't bother figuring out how, but using HEM to mark hands to take notes later is probably a good idea

Great thanks, I;m using PT3 now and it has the mark hands feature and started using that.
Figured I can also go into the stars client during reviews in replayer - options: player notes if I want to.

I have sort of skimmed through a lot of this series and real life 180 grinder, and got the gist of sticking to thinking of chipEV away from bubble -

About calling any two card shoves:

I picked up the comment about K2o having >50% equity vs ATC - does this mean I can just construct a calling range of all hands >50% equity vs. ACT and start using it, if I understand correctly?

So I'm playing and I've seen a reg shoving light appropriate for 180turbos - next time he shoves in a shove ATC spot, I can call with Q6o, J6s, 98s etc? Assuming no levelling going on?


And is there a part of the series anywhere where you go into reshoving specifically?

Thanks.

Ah, reading back through the thread now, I see the M/CSI tables are in 'kill everyone', which I actually have and now can go and read so it should clear things up on calling ranges.

Don't think so specifically as in JUST re-shoving an episode but it's definitely mentioned for sure. Probably more towards the end, and also in the other series I did called real life 180 man grinder.

Well yes if you have a spot that has no ICM, like not the final table or bubble, calculate your pot odds and see howm uch equity you need. If you have enough, call, if not fold.. So (how much it costs to call/how much the total pot will be if you call).

Also that's BvB, so make sure you don't call with 50% equity from the CO vs UTG because 3 ppl behind you can overcall making your call less profitable.
