flop me a wheel. lol. If playing 42o in a live game in a raised pot I think it's more fun to 3bet the field after you say that.

Yeah, that's a good point, but I felt like it was too advanced to discuss in this vid. ;)

I just watched this video again and I've decided I'm really happy with it. I think there's a lot of really good theoretical strategy in here that may be a bit hard to get as we didn't often have an opportunity to apply it. But it's definitely there if you work at it and delve a little deeper.

I'm also proud of the fact that that's the calmest I've ever been while dropping 25+ big bets. That's a really huge moral victory for me.

I'd like to get some feedback on the last ~10 minutes of the video where we discussed the below hand:

Poker Stars $2/$4 Limit Hold'em - 6 players
The Official DeucesCracked.com Hand History Converter

Pre Flop: Hero is BB with 8 2
1 fold, MP calls, 2 folds, SB calls, Hero checks

Flop: (3 SB) K 3 5 (3 players)
SB checks, Hero checks, MP checks

Turn: (1.5 BB) 2 (3 players)
SB checks, Hero bets, MP calls, SB folds

River: (3.5 BB) 9 (2 players)
Hero checks, MP bets, Hero calls

In the video we just pulled up the raw hand history and talked it over. Did people enjoy this? Was it educational? Were you able to remember or follow the action well enough from looking at the raw hand history?
