I enjoyed this one, and it was great that WhiteHeatSYD asked quite a few rly good questions -like what would you do if this was a tight player e.t.c
50mins in 76s, I agree somewhat with NoWayFolding. I would never float there without some kind of over outs or better. Just think he's got a tp/2nd pair or draw, and we beat 1/2 PPs he may also have.

If you download this it contains 3 files:
prefs.xml
PosPref.txt
PosPref2.txt
So I guess copy these from C:\Program Files\RVG Software\Holdem Manager\Config and ask Entity to upload it. Remember to save a backup of these files if your use WhiteHeatsSYD layout -just copy and post in a new folder somewhere on desktop.

Fold A5s on the button against a utg raise and cold call from 47/25 and 51/21 players?
(16 mins 30 secs into the video)
My view on this is that the utg is raising about 13-16% of hands in this spot. I think that his range he is not as wide as made out, I would always fold or squeeze in this spot. But I think the problem with squeezing here is that both are likely to call a squeeze as they are donks. The overlimp also leaves us open to a squeeze as we are not really representing anything decent with a raise and cold call in front. So the loose player but tight raiser in the blinds can make a move on us. So that leaves calling. For example if the flop comes down AT7, and the turn is a 9, you are never going to know if you are ahead or behind, as he can play an Ace down to A7. Where a TAGs range in this position is easier to manage. Also I don't feel that there is enough of his range that he is going to stack off with if we hit a flush. As he is not really playing SC and small pocket pairs UTG, as I think he would limp most of these.

Just watched the first half and have a few questions before I forget...
37min KJo in SB: When CO opens I agree folding here is best but do you ever 3bet if say there wasn't a super loose BB or your sample on Hansli was bigger and he had a decent steal percentage? What if you'd been in the BB instead? He seems loose enough that your not crushed by his CO range and you haven't 3bet him yet that i remember.
I would prefer a bigger sample size to make this decision. As he is only raising 13% of hands, and we have no info on whether he folds to a 3bet. If he does flat our 3bet it is going to be by a hand that likely has us dominated and we are out of position for the rest of the hand. Would prefer to do it with air, or something with a bit more potential would prefer it with KJs, but it would definately be a marginal 3bet in my opinion.
Will get WiltOnTilt to give some input on my last two posts as he should have better explanations as this is still a learners view...

I use to love Fruitypro's videos, as he was so detailed. Do you know what happened to him????
Yeah, I used to love them too - thought they were the best vids on CR (well, for us donks anyway). I have no idea whether he still makes vids for them, but I don't seem to remember any new vids by him in the months before I defected to DC.
Josh's videos here remind me very much of FP actually - logical, "simple" thought-process, and playing in a very controlled, methodical, measured way.

Question about the AJo hand in which the rationale for flat-calling drc's squeeze play was to induce MoneySan(?)(the fish) to call:
What if WhiteHeat had had something like QQ in that position? Would you still advocate just flat-calling drc's squeeze in order to get MoneySan to call or would you rather re-raise in order to (theoretically) force out MoneySan and have a heads-up pot with drc?
Also, say you had the QQ and you flat call as you did with the AJo and MoneySan calls. The Board comes down the same: 4cKh8h. And drc bets out his $15. What would you do? If you just called drc's $15 bet, aren't you giving good odds to MoneySan to call with a flush draw? But with a re-raise, aren't you committing too much of your stack so that if drc re-raises all-in, you're pot committed and have to call, praying he doesn't have a king?

Nice job on the second episode guys!
Man you run like I do.
And you out'ed two of my favorite fish too, now there are going to be big waiting lists on their tables. lol.
A couple of specific comments/questions...
1) When you get these mega fish running hot and sitting with >200BB their play tends to change somewhat, but in a critical way. For example 995994 when he/she gets a big stack he/she gets a lot more aggressive with air and made hands. I like the float on the C/R with KJ you are good there like 99% of the time and a raise there would only get a fold and miss the chance at more value.
But MoneySan is the other type, when he/she gets deep, his/her little C/R acts tend to indicate a "decent" made hand. I have been check mini raised on the turn by san a couple of times and seen a showdown. It is almost always a decent hand with showdown value, one was a monster (turned quads vs top set).
2) If this is too personal, no need to reply.
How are you situated for bankroll? How are you dealing with your run of running bad? I take it you guys have already recorded all of the episodes for the series, but is there any chance you can talk about dealing with the effects of the "running bad" and any you have done to counter act any negitive effects?

I have a lot of history with Drc13, and my view on the hand is that the worst that he is going to be betting into me with is KQo on this flop. After discussing the hand with him, he said he had KQo, and knew that if he could get past me he would be shoving any flop against the fish. But with QQ I would of 4bet him pf, as I know his range could be 99+, KJs,KQs,AK,AQo. So would only be dominated by only two hands. If it did get to the flop, I think that raising or folding is the best play here, as in effect you are drawing to a couple of QQ. I don’t want to play 2nd pair in a re-raised pot multiway.

I will make sure that I cover this in video 4, as we have not recorded it yet. I just need to rationalize my thoughts on it to give you some usefull info on it. As I think I made a number of mistakes with my downswing.

Just a quick question. Is this video not available on an ipod compatible version? I noticed episode one was, but episode two appears not to be. Apologize if this is a newbie question as I am new to watching dc videos on ipod.

You can only watch the one table and powerpoint videos on an ipod, as otherwise it is to small. Not sure about the ipod touch? As it may be watchable on this, but this is Entity's area....

Yeah, only one tabling vids are converted to iPod format. Two and four tabling vids just look too small on the iPod.
