awesome

this is the best format ever, hopefully more vids will be made in this style

Hey, this is awesome stuff.

One minor lol tho, in the hand where you advise against raising up the T7hh from the hijack with a 50 VP$IP on the button you somehow missed the fact that hero had just stacked that guy and he had left the table, so in fact hero is now in the cutoff raising a 22.5, 23, and 23.5.

Great video though, keep it up!

Indeed this is my favorite format. Please do more of these.

I didn't like this video too much.
First of all the technical difficulties. The sound quality is bad and the play is not in real time. That does not allow us to see any timing tells and generally it is difficult to follow the action on all the tables (also lot of table changes, stats popping up, sudden cuts in the middle of hands etc.) Then you seem to miss the action at some hands and comment on them anyway (e.g. T8 hand where the button sits out, QT hand). Perhaps 4 tables and super speed is a bit too much?
Concerning the play there are some comments I didn't agree with like completing the SB with KJ when the button limps, calling raises in position with JQ and KQ etc., no 3bets, calling 96s against a bet and a raise on a 9 hi flop. But then suddenly T9s is a solid hand UTG?
In my opinion such videos only make sense when you are sweating the player. He can explain why he plays in a certain way and you get some kind of discussion going.

Bro, he did cbet the flop at 20:50 ;) He bet 3 into 3.5.
I see absolutely nothing wrong with this cbet though.

regarding the c-bet that he made when I thought he checked (where I said he showed good restraint), I agree it's fine. at some point you have to show players like that that you're capable of not betting every time they check to you, and I thought that was a good time to do it. it was a very dry board, so if I noticed he bet, I'm pretty sure I wouldn't have commented, because betting is fine and standard on such a dry flop. but it's a spot where it's good to sometimes check vs. someone who's almost always calling with A high and often with K high. so since again, at some point we have to not c-bet, I felt like this was a good time to check. And checking the flop in no way means you forego your chance to take the pot down.

I still bet the river, but it's not "trivially easy." His most likely hand is a flopped pair, and a small (~1/3 pot) bet should get him to pay off. Anyway, not sure how this slipped through, and I apologize for that.

I noticed the T7s hand when I was giving it a final run through. The button was actually in the hand with like 5 or 10 BB, but insta-left as soon as he folded. I didn't think it was worth editing in the audio there, as it's usually pretty noticeable when I do that and try to only do it when I 100% need to. If the button wasn't in the hand, I agree shawn, good spot to raise with tight players behind.

I also liked the format of this video or rather the concept.

Concept of recording the play in advance and afterwards coment on the intresting spots, gives more intresting situations explaned (in some detail) in a shorter time then compared where we comment live while playing (and sometimes dont even get time to take the action planned because timer runs out while explaining the reasoning behind the desicion).

Better video as a base next time and it will be excelent.

I really liked this video, also because you came across situations where I find it difficult to play. I take some notes and learnt a lot! Keep up the good work! Especially finding the good situations with nits behind you and a donk in the blinds, good stuff!

I have some questions, or people can answer them too ofcourse ;)

I see calling in position with hands like JTs/QKs etc, I normally fold them against TAG, because I have always learnt these are reversed implied odds hands, which can cost you lots of money, on flops like K high. Of course, I can fold these kind of hands on the flop when I am suspicious. Is this a big leak? What about low suited connectors?

My next question is can you recommend me something how to improve in reading players, like that play with, minibet flop and turn/push river. I always fold that, because I think he is playing some obvious monster. And the hand in the blind battle with KQ, and c/r all-in by the SB. You just explained me this is e easy call against a TAG, i would come up with these ideas of: I showed strength, raised him made a cbet, how can he think I dont have a good hand. He must have me beat. I try to understand these kind of plays.

Against those TAG regulars at 50NL at FTP, do you suspect those player understand all the aspects you were telling about? For example, calling a raise while he has a LAG next to him, do these player take these things into account? How much credit do you give them, because they (and I) are still playing on microlimits.

Thanks!

I really like how you speed up your videos to the interesting bits.

Keep them coming!

+1 on this concept/video

30:23 QJs - what do you think of a check here given that donkus has already limped and our hand plays decent multiway? How easily do you think Donkus could call our raise with some crap? then what do you think of our spot?

Also interested in some of what sweetysven said.

good video btw!
