Doug Polk's Youtube Videos Thread - Page 10 - YouTube Podcasts & Twitch Streams -- Two Plus Two Poker Forums

First of all: subbed. This new show is awesome. Time to catch up on the old eps.

Secondly: on tanking... THANK YOU. I've heard people using timing tells as the excuse for tanking on otherwise obvious folds. Never could wrap my head around that logic, as it seems you could simply balance your "tank time" among the hands you might play vs. definitely will play, and you wouldn't give up any useful info.

suggestions:

- More references to actual posts in the threads that support the story. For example, while I enjoyed hearing your thoughts on the quad fold, ALL we heard were your thoughts. it would be nice to see others thoughts as well in the form of actual posts you thought were interesting on the topic. and not just ones that agree with you. fair and balanced, right?

- how about ending with a "Post of The Week" segment ? sort of like "and Now your moment of Zen " on daily show. something really funny, really smart or really dumb. plenty to choose from

+1

great job though doug.

Another lol at Torelli. Would be funny to expose him but he's probably not relevant enough for Doug to waste his time.
Still so many blind fanboys on his channel...

Average salary in Germany is 43344 euros before taxes. I'd imagine you're bottom line this year is roughly the same so far, and we're only 7 months in, and you don't have to pay tax on your earnings. Be grateful.

Lucky for you he wasn't implying that. But stay douchey. It's good to see from time to time.

Why the Torelli hate? He has been nothing but a kind and respectful member of the high stakes community. He is one of the nicer and friendlier players I've come across and never has a bad word to say about anyone. He offers insights into his thought process and provides for the community. Hate for Torelli is totally displaced. He spends no time in the gutters trashing his colleagues. He shows a maturity that is often lacking in this forum and he should get the respect he deserves.
