"Letting the days go by / let the water hold me down . . ."

Great production value.

I gotta say I love it. I love that you take time to control and edit the video. I love that what's transpiring on my monitor is directly related to what the two of you are discussing. I lose that with so many multitable live videos that just stream along over commentary, commentary that's often ahead or behind the action. I often find myself in a whirlpool of confusion with my finger hovering over the rewind button. I cannot stress it enough. That fact alone, apart from the strength of your ideas and collective delivery, render your video so much more engaging than it otherwise would or could be.

Cool stuff!

On the last 76s hand if called on the turn would you fire a blank river? (blank being a non broadway/10 river)

Couple of questions here:

On the 2nd hand, KQ @ 16:00. When the CO over-calls your flop bet, you talk about how he can never do this with a set or AJ - he would be raising for sure. Not sure I get it - are you saying that SIMPLY because of the FD on the board? After he calls there he has 326 left and 140 in the middle which leaves him plenty of time to get it all in. What am I missing here?

3rd hand, K9s on the Tkk2 board with 3 spades, vanessa talks about him shipping it here with the A of spades on the turn. Are you guys calling a ship here on the turn with the made flush on the board vs your 9 outs? Min-raise? anything in between?

About the KJ hand halfway through, what would you do in his position (with made hands or air) if you knew your opponent's c/r-ing range contained alot of air/draws? You say he can't really continue with anything, so you just give up?

In the 44 hand, what do you think about a c/r on the river?

In the KQ hand he certainly could flat with a set or AJ, but the majority of players won't, because when we donk out here they'll put us on a hand that will give them action and there are obviously draws to be concerned about.

In the K9dd hand, if he ships the turn it depends a ton on what kind of player he is. Against some its a snapcall, against others its a snapfold. If he's the kind of guy that will only shove flushes and won't call much with worse hands, betting the turn in the first place would be bad.

I'd float a lot and look for me to give up so he can take it away on the turn or river.

Not a huge fan of a river c/r with 44, since there aren't many worse hands he can call with, he may have us beat, and we've got some deepish stacks (though I guess we can easily fold to a 3bet shove)

In regards to AT being similar to K9 on the KsKcTs flop. I don't think its as close as mentioned in the video because some of the hands you mentioned that can call a flop bet, like AQ and AJ, have a lot more equity against AT as any Ace or pairing of their kicker puts them ahead of us.
It is also easier to beat a flush draw that hits by boating up with trips than it is with 2 pair. (I know you said its not the same hand, just wanted to add that).

In regards to the idea of people flatting flush draws on the flop to your donk here, in my experience its a mixed bag. Some opponents will and some won't. The ones who will, partially view their call as a float, but with a decent amount of equity. They figure you may be FOS, but they don't want to raise and get reraised and run into the top of your range, so they take the lower variance route and just call to take a turn, figuring that similar to a pure float, they may be able to take the hand away later if you give up.

I'm confused why fslexcduck thinks the villain in this hand will often flat the flop with flush draws, but shove the turn with the As, it seems like if he flats the flop with a flush draw, he will continue with the passive line on the turn and just call again.

have a question on the A7s hand at about 40 mins.
if he calls the flop, would a 3barrell be good (if turn&river arent hearts)? he has to fold all his draws, llot of weaker pocketpairs etc.
