nice video, finally i get to see a video producer getting coolered many times in one video

seriously though, I really liked some moves you made and the elaborated comments that followed like the check/raise bluff on the AJ3 board, the float and turn raise with flush draw and of course the AK vs AA suckout, gotta learn that one

This is a VERY good video. Despite the FTP lag, there were many good spots and just good general analysis about how to adjust to getting played back at depending on your stats. Sucks that you got coolered so much but this is a very good video.

Like the min raising theme for the vid.
Watched a fwe of FoxwoodFiend's vid and he mentioned min raising preflop on the button and that it work v well.
Btw could you give a standard range of opening hands you do in each position and how this may change if people limp given your style on this vid.

Depending on the table, I have in the past opened low to mid range pairs and mid range suited connectors in early position if the table is playing really passively. You'll rarely win the pot uncontested, but pretty often you'll get a 4 way pot or so where you can play for stacks. Generally, however, you are going to be wanting to be raising to 3-4x the BB in EP so you won't have to play lots of pots oop, but if you're at a really loosey goosey table where no one is trying to take down pots uncontested pf, this is a good way to look like an idiot and get some multiway pots.
In LP I'll be doing it with an enormous range since you'll quite often be getting the pot hu and will be able to take down lots of pots with position, so suited Ks/As, all pairs, suited gappers and connectors, and midrange to high offsuit connectors. Basically, this works totally sweet when it works, but recognize when you're starting to get played back at cause when you start playing against raw aggression and can't put players on hands (even when you have position), play becomes difficult. At this point you can just go back to playing a tighter game, but until then it's really good to be saving money in spots against bad players where you don't need to bet a lot to have FE.

good concepts in the video but much to fast for me, would prefer if its like for example in the Kingforaday video: Stop the replay, explain, go on to the next hand, stop, explain....

but nice vid anyway
