love the series but would like to see a bit of live play maybe next time? or video review i guess would be better so you can pause it.
This week has $5/10 NLHE hands played by Blah234 and reviewed by Ansky.
Blah234 chose to stop wasting money at 4NL and learn the game of poker. After a year of learning from his peers and teachers on DeucesCracked.com we've paired him in a series with Ansky so that he can grow further and teach those stuck in the low-mid stakes like he used to be.

hey guys, on the last hand with aa on 2q2q4, why would you c/r? does it just look bluffy to rep a Q? do players call c/r there with say 88 or 99?
live play vid FTW! Please
keep this format going guys nice job
yeah keep format and would love another series just like this.

really hate this river cr plan. He doesnt bet his mid pp's a lot of the time because that IS his percieved range and the combination of decisions means its likely a value cut. Please can we discuss a good line for this hand against following villains : nit, solid aggro thinking reg, aggro fish.
Great series so far. Live play for next one!

Hi Ansky, you said vs. this c=bet on AJT you like raising the lower flush draws, what's the difference between having 68s which you said you'd like to bluff raise here vs 89s of clubs per se. 89s has better equity and it doesn't have any SD value like A9 flush draw etc....I can write a book here about this hand but I'll spare you :-) and just ask why you like raising with 68 of clubs vs. this c-bet.
-Thank You.
Live play for last vid would be cool..
liveplay for last would be great, really good series

Can you rephrase your question/ entire post? I really have no idea what you are trying to say.

Some people can just never show up with Qx here so I'd consider c/r with AA. Vs most though you are right bet/fold is best.

I don't necessarily agree that he "almost never has a Q"...why can't he have a Q? If he has a Q,
it's debatable whether he can even get 2 more streets of value from a hand like AA (let alone worse hands). I think the optimal line against your range should be to check behind turn in hopes that you either a) catch a piece on the river or b) decide to bluff at the river. Since he's probably only getting 1 more street of value anyway, why should he bet the turn and blow out all unpaired hands out of the water? I think he plays Qx like this almost every time as I don't see any big incentive for him to bet the turn.
Ansky sounds so impatient and bored
Yeah he actually does, I really enjoy his teachings but just from a audiences end view I think you should at least fake it as if your not annoyed/bored. After all we do pay for this service, and tbh the vibes you throw out, boredom/annoyed deff take a lil something out of the video if other wise you were a tad more professional. Other than that I really enjoy all of your vids Ansky, and I really hope you see this as just constructive critism. Trust me Im the last guy to purposely call somebody out. Please continue making greatness. Thank you!
I am watching these videos to try to understand blah's evolution from exploitation poker to game thoery poker, and I must say... Ansky does not sound bored or annoyed to me. It just sounds like he says what he is thinking instead of being polite as in he says what his reactions are to an absurd villain line. The things he says are what I think when I see some kind of really crazy line from someone in real time.
Also, I must also say that I am shocked to see some of the same weirdness at their level that I see at 10NL. Freakin hilarious...
