Wow, Ongame. One of the networks that will make you people from US want to move to Canada or Europe. Haven't watched the video yet, put I'm interested to see how you can put these people on any kind of range. From experience: 9/3 limps T4o UTG...in full ring.

This is a great series so far, the table numbering did help in a few occasions too and improved the flow.

Ongame players do not have a clue! QT on a Q hi board is the nuts and you should value bet against 2 players! Otherwise good video!

Josh, another very nice vid, and the table numbering definitely helped the flow. Your various series are among my favourites at DC.

5 star. I think slowing things down and always analyzing in detail opponents' ranges, our own equity, stack sizes and how to proceed from that is the biggest reason this video is top notch. Plus, the author doesn't hold back really anything that he's thinking and just packs it full of useful nuggets of info.
This brought up something I need to consider more, but is still a bit unclear, because sthief only touched on it briefly, but when I'm isolating a limper, what considerations, assuming we both have decent stack sizes, should I be considering in sizing my preflop raise. I mean, what stats should I be looking for when I decide to only raise 4 BBs or less vs. more than "my current default standard" 5 BBs when isolating high VPIP and fold to CBet players?

haha and that was all of my bankroll btw. I cashed out a bit so I have around 7.5K now. But I don't feel comfortable playing higher so I decided I was sticking with NL50 and take shots at NL100. Right now I play a mixture of NL50 and NL100 with mediocre succes at NL100.

Btw I haven't watched the video yet.

Nice video Josh. I'm happy all in all I don't suck that much lol. Btw I have a big question. What would be a decent winrate with all these crazy loose players at these stacks??? my winrate turns around 3.5-4 BB and I really think I need to have abetter one since these games look quite decent.

Have to say that the QJ fold early on on QJ4Tx was pretty good. I know alot of players playing much higher that would struggle to do that. Also I would say you might want to mix in a few shots playing 100 on weekends you are easily good enough to beat it pretty comfortably.

I play NL100 too. I generally play 3tables of NL10 and 3 of NL50 to balance the swings.

Really really considering a move to Ongame. Droolers on all tables it seems.

Looks like a good vid, haven't watched it all yet. Xerxes seems very solid so far imo. Smile

My 4th shot at NL10à went down the drain. I don't know why but every time I play NL100 I loose money and this generally after 6 or 7 K hands. It might just be variance but I feel really weird about it. Btw my winrate has gone down to 3.5BB and I4m not sure how good that is considering those loose players I play against.

34:05 when we have QTs on the Q957 board 3way I agree a big bet of 13-14 commits us and you advocate checking. I like to bet 8-10 here and get value from pair+gutshot type hands. Its thin but I think we get raised off our hand almost never and definitely not as a bluff.

This video should be tagged for bet sizing, excellent stuff.

With these stack sizes vs the BTN, if you are in the SB what's the worst hand you're squeezing for value? Would you ever venture to 3 bet bluff here given that the BTN may peel you pretty light and we stand to be super deep OOP?
