This is the best video in the series so far imo. A few reasons why:

-The content is about that so many novice and intermediate LHE players struggle with (Overcard play). Entity really breaks it down and makes it easy to understand.

-Hands. The hands were picked out beforehand and shown using the DC replayer! This is far better for the video than the holdem manager replayer.

-Sound. Really small thing but in this video PH's voice sound quality is a lot better than it has been in the past.

Keep up the good work guys!

Thanks!!

We bought him a mic so it will be better for the rest of the series, with #4 as a possible exception since we still have a lot of HEM-recorded material that was really good for beginning players. The rest of the comments you made I agree with though I'm looking to try to get a HEM-DC skinned replayer at some point in the future so we can make videos that use HEM look a bit nicer. It's such an unbelievably powerful tool for doing good coaching analysis and hand analysis that I feel like I wouldn't be doing it justice to not include it in the vids, though I understand it's not super visually stimulating.

Ya I don't mind the content and practical use of HEM. I think that is great.

The DC replayer comment was purely about aesthetics

I liked this video a lot. I think PH did a great job asking interesting questions. I hope you make more videos like this.

Entity mentions that the only time he wants to put in two bets is when Hero bets the turn, Villain calls, and Hero c/c river when it comes something good, but not great like a seven.

However, the seven may actually be closer to great than good because small pocket pairs (22, 44, 55, 66) just got counterfeited.

Yeah, but AJ, AT, A8, A6, etc. just took half the pot from you, and there are a lot more combos of those than there are of 22-66. Like I said in the vid, it's good, but it's not great for that reason.

Wow, thanks for bumping this. I'd forgotten what a classic episode this was. Playing unimproved overs well is an LHE skill that can make a huge difference in your winrate. Rewatching as we speak, and it's every bit as relevant now as it was two years ago - which really speaks to the value DC offers.

Don't forget to re-watch Episode 4 then too! Especially because we bring in the Wagon.
