Poker Video: No Limit Hold'Em by Grindcore (Micro/Small Stakes)

The wmv link goes to the same file as 5th episode.

Time Link to 00:27:40

I'm surprised you didn't recognize the obvious donk slowplay line right away and folded the river. He is soooo likely to c/f the river with QJ, A5 (might c/c), JT whatever he's peeling. It's also less likely that he's peeling QJ JT and whatever because the K is on board and he can't make top pair with those hands. His leading range on the river is exactly 7x, Kx and pairs QQ and lower - and he is neeeeeever folding to a raise imo.


Also, what are your thoughts behind choosing the turtle avatar and what effects do you think that has on metagame?

Yeah he folds QJ JT on the turn, but not A high I think. But you're right, with A high he probably doesn't lead the river, should have folded there. One thing I didn't say in the video was his flop c/c timing. People usually don't think that long before they c/c a king there. It's more likely air or 7x.

I think if the turn wasn't a 7 and I took the same line, I'd have folded river because now 7x is more likely. But "nobody ever has quads", which is probably why I fell for it.

Though I haven't done it in a DC video yet, changing your avatar to happy before overbetting is awesome, and with the turtle this will be most visible. If you confuse him first, he retracts his head, and when you then change to happy, his head pops out for an extra dramatic effect (most other avatars only change the mouth and you barely notice). No other avatar can level people into folds like that.

Quoting myself here. In one of my old videos on PokerSavvy Plus for those who have membership there, Elements of a Winner part 3, 12:40 table 2, enjoy

is it really that hard to not time out? you say its the software yet you have the time button clicked, you can see the timer counting, and still fail to make plays and then say "you would have done something else". make the correct play, and explain it after the fact.

Lol! And I always thought I'm creative for doing that every time I overbet.

Finally! And YES! This kind fo vid is what i was hoping for !

Yes it is really hard. Multitabling and talking at the same time is alot harder than just playing or just watching and thinking along. Speaking thoughts when you think much faster than you can talk is also hard, atleast for me. And on iPoker, where I normally play, you get 30 seconds per decision, which is more than on FTP. I was also playing without sound so I didn't hear the warning beeps, I'll make sure to change my audio configuration for future sweat sessions.

I also prefer 2 tables for video making, but there was demand to seeing me play alot of standard spots, so I did 4 tables for this one.
