Great question!

Answer: 20BB CAP and my 40BB system are two completely different games.

In most 20BB CAP games, a large number of pots are all in preflop for 40BB pots. That's where people are getting crushed on the effective rake.

With my 40BB system, most of the winnings come from chipping up, stealing pots preflop, etc.


In my recent 12.5k hand sample in my OP, I am paying in rake:

With a 26-60BB stack: $0.17086/hand
With a 100-150BB stack: $0.17201/hand


Also in the 2031 hand sample w 41-60BB stacks that I posted, I have been stacked exactly 5 times and have doubled up exactly 10 times.

That’s less than 1% (0.7%) of total hands that I’ve been all in and called for my effective stack.

Looking at my pre-BF PS 20BB CAP results I can see that in 3820 hands (I dabbled) I was stacked for 20BBs 74 times and stacked another player for 20BBs 87 times. (I’m even omitting the hands where an opponent was 19.9BBs or less effective) So in 20BB CAP I was all in and flipping 4.2% of total hands dealt.


So in this sample, with 20BB CAP on PS, I am 6 times (600%) more often all in and called than playing my 40BB system.


Conclusion: 20BB CAP (especially low stakes) on Pokerstars is a merciless rake-fest, and while I haven’t studied the matter extensively enough to confirm the stats listed in these links, it may very well be close to unbeatable at low stakes.

However, my 40BB system on any site will generate close to and perhaps slightly less rake than a comparable 100BB system.

Big thanks for this clarification

yourdoom, please tell the tech team to open the discussion forum faster
zoom is going to come , and discussion should follow it up.

Almost finished. We expect to be live (barring unforeseen complication) within 48 hours!

Once I purchase the 40bb course via Paypal, how long until I can access it?

The entire process will be automated very soon. So Paypal purchases will give you instant access. At the moment however, it is not instant. We guarantee access within 24 hours of purchase but most people get it much sooner.

Payment sent via moneybookers, for 40bb blind play course, how do I access it?

Got it. You will receive a welcome email with your new user name and password very soon.

Thanks and enjoy!

Idk whether you want my feedback or not... Your results are obv great; esp playing from blinds. Furthermore your past career as a teacher indicates that you know how to impart knowledge well. However, the free sample videos are appallingly cringeworthy, horribly aggressive marketing which really does undermine your credibility greatly in my eyes. Idk if this was a conscious trade off or not...I'm still undecided but the way you have presented the content kind of makes me feel like I'd be a bit of a "mark" if I were to part with my cash. Also, haven't really seen a review from well known 2p2ers whose opinion may carry a bit more weight. Any thoughts?

Hello I have a couple quick questions. I play only cash games 3-5, 5-10 games are 3-5 hand 300-500 bets deep, would your playing from the blinds apply to games this deep. Have you played much this deep short handed and what info would I need to fully maximize a few hours of one on one coaching. I have no idea how to read poker tracker, and never played online and have no intention of doing so. Would your expertise help me. Thanks for your time.

Hey Mike,

See my post here:

And in short, many people have bought this series for live play. And yes, the series absolutely applies to all stack sizes above 30BBs.

If you'd like to shoot me an email at YourDoomPoker@gmail.com, we can discuss the details of your situation and how private coaching could be useful to you.

I'm sorry you didn't enjoy the free sample videos (located in the OP.) I assure you that the positive response and feedback that I've gotten from purchasers of the course over the past 6 months has been so overwhelming glowing and positive that it has exceeded even my own expectations.

I am also active in several other communities, so if you see a user with a post count of '1' writing a review in this thread, that is because a non-2plus2 member has taken the time to sign up for an account on this forum just to express their appreciation of the course. In my opinion their feedback carries just as much weight as any well known 2plus2er with 1000+ posts (which I also have several great reviews from as well.)

Please let me know if you have any questions at all about the course.

I purchased your 40bb stack video series, I thought you had a forum or something?

The forum should be live within 12 hours! When it's live I'll send all 40BB course members an email with instructions on how to access the special private 40BB strategy forum.

Enjoy the series!

I did buy the series a few weeks back and watched all of the videos

I haven't played a ton of 40bb poker since then, but thoughts are as follows:

The downside is the price tag @ $500 usd. I do believe the product is fairly priced for the value I personally received from it. In the end, I am happy with the purchase. Keep in mind I don't grind nearly as much as I used to, for someone who has 30+ hours a week to grind, this could be a really great investment for them.

The series is pretty good. It covers about 80% of what I would have ever wanted to know about playing 40bb poker, which is impressive (because I have a very inquisitive mind). I am hoping the remaining 20% will be answered in the forums YourDoom has created. I have began to play some 40bb sessions, and I see some potential here.

Hope This Helps!
