video was funny
agree with above pretty much , i fold the kjo , shove if it sooted
folding the a5 on btn
shoving the k7o btn with 1.5k is the only one who might call somewhat light.

i think your video helped me realize i am being too tight with like 10-12 bb when im in LP at like 100/200 and 100/200 ante... those are prob my 2 worst blind levels and is prob costing me a lot of $$$ ev $$$$ etc

20+ tables plz!

The Lipo Fund, you should watch Cocaine Cowboys. You'll like it nice vid btw

I need to run the KJo, but I felt good about it at the time

The 73o was an interesting spot, I was somewhat short myself and I had 2:1 on the flop, it could go either way with as many hands as he was playing

The a5 isn't a move in my normal games, but I was playing so few tables and I guess I got a little angsty. Stack sizes weren't terrible for bet fold either, they just repopped me every ****ing time, so folding would've been better I think

The K7 is infact an easy shove and I guess I just wanted to be sure I made $$$ in my first sng video series, that way nobody thought i sucked =(

I'll do another where I'll 6-9 table. If I play 20 tables you would get very little explanations as to anything I'm doing, so I'd feel like that's a waste of my time and yours.

I saw cocaine cowboys last year and it was a fantastic documentary IMO, should watch it

This is the first video I have ever made, so go easy on me!!

This is a video of me 10 tabling the $6.50s on stars. I cashed in 4 out of 10, with a 1st, 1st, 2nd, 3rd for a ROI of 25%.

I felt I played perhaps a bit too tight at times (the pressure of the video!!), and I missed a really obvious shove when I had 10-10 at 50/100 on one table. There's also an interesting bubble spot when I shove with JJ and bubble out - would appreciate thoughts on whether you think this was a shove or not. There's also a classic "arrrgh it's rigged" moment, when I run my A-A into another A-A preflop!!

Ps. I know my voice sounds totally ******ed - it's embarrassing! I am rubbish in front of a mic! I tried as much as I could to keep a bit of commentary going, but struggled at times.

I would love any comments / feedback from any experienced players. I am still very much learning, but have hit 14% ROI over my last 1000 games so feel I am improving well. Enjoy the Vid.

I'm watching the above vid throughout the day... so far the AA early hand was pretty terrible, u bet too much on the flop and u don't need to shove 1200 into 700 pot. Extract more value ftw.

55 like 15 min in, light preflop open, especially w/ your stack it's going to be tough to play postflop. I prob cbet flop rather than turn b/c if he fires turn (uve induced bluffs by check behind flop) u can't call.

15 min J4s pair/FD I prob reshove w/ a nice draw and FE.

AQ shove 18 min is fine.

That TT pf 19 min in is a shove over min raise unless villain is supper nitty.
TT at 20 min mark unless villain is super nitty also a shove.
AK 21 min in, raise to 600. I snap call I doubt villain limp-shoves all that strong. In a 6.50 I think his range is much wider than KK+.
a5 24 min in u can shove from btn.
ajo at 27 is read dependent
jj 28 min u have a little fe and bb isnt that short, shove.
33 31 in shove pf.
ajo 34 in shove pf
t8s on btn 39 min in might be a close shove
86s 40 min in ez shove
k3o 40 min u can shove pf
k4o 41 min shove
62o 42 in if u lead, u dont need a psb
kk 43 in check behind is fpsy, esp in a 6.50
aa 44 in raise/shove pf.
82o 44 in i prob shove too unless villain is v loose/good
k4s shove pf
k7o call pf
32s i prob shove
qq i shove pf

Skimmed over it, as picked up by vers the AA early hand stuck out as being quite bad due to reasons mentioned above. But on the whole mostly good/standard stuff albeit with a tendency to be a little too tight in some spots. Only thing i really didn't like was lack of note taking! not sure if this was due to you making a video but you had some important note taking to make on several plays imo.

Vers, thanks so much for the effort you have put in with the review, I really appreciate it. When I look back over your advice, you're definitely right, I suppose the heat of the moment sometimes causes bad decisions.

That early AA, I am a bit embarrassed by I admit, it was an overkill to shove like that, but sometimes at $6.50's I find they call behind here and it works out as good value. What do you think I should have bet on the flop and turn out of interest?

I particulary appreciate your ITM advice, because this is probably my weakest area at the moment. I have a 41% ITM, but am pretty bad at converting that into a solid 1st place ratio.

Once again thanks so much for the obvious effort you've put into reviewing my vid.

np happy to do it

Nice video NJD. I will enjoy watching this one over and over as lots to digest.

Does T275 seem like a good size for a flop cbet on this hand (17min 19sec)

I deleted the vid but board was like kk8 so i prob bet like 60% pot

Haha. Love ur video and ur avatar on ps

Lipo-
Need pics of the fruit basket next time.

Very good video. Thanks for putting in the time.

On the AQs hand, (15 min) when CO opens, I was thinking about just calling and using our position to play it out postflop. (Or putting in a rerasie)

Seemed kind of deep to shove. The video was kind of small but seemed the blinds were only 25/50. You made the right move with the push but unfortunately chance often favors the donks.

Lipo-

On the 73o hand (toward the end), I remember reading about a similar situation in the HOH books. With a middle pair hand, tend to call with a higher kicker and tend to fold with a smaller one. If I remember correctly I think it was due to the higher kicker beating most of the middle pair groups that could be in villian's range.

I think this was discussed in volume III the workbook. If anyone remembers the section and Im wrong please help me out. Since you asked for feedback I thought I would bring it up.

Thanks again.

thanks a2f and checkmate

the avatar is pretty sweet =]

flatting the AQ probably wouldve been alright, but iirc I was on a shorter stack and would've committed 10%~ of my stack with a call. and if i'm getting it in 70/30 i can sleep easy at night

as discussed the 73o was very marginal and wouldve been folded if i had more chips probably.

i do appreciate the feedback and i'm glad people enjoyed the video in general. i will make more after finals is over with in the next 3 weeks

Glad I could be of some help.

Looking forward to the next video.

These videos are a really big help to improving my game.

Thank you so much for this idea and the videos of course.

It really gives a great insight. Also the comments about what you think is standard. Just keep 'em coming. Lots of people who can still learn from that also. Or your reads that you get on players and why and what you make of it. Vers and Rex have some nice info in their videos.

Again thank you so much.

My problem is I'm not into computers that much and I can't watch a lot of the other videos. So I have the VLC alright. But it does not play .rar or .sfw files. The codec mentioned did not help either. One was viewable with the explorer, but then very small. No offense of course. I could not do it at all (and it would not be interesting, too, I guess.

Any easy way to view those other videos. ?

RAR files are archives. Use 7-zip to extract them. SWF files should open with Flash. DL it if you don't have it. Gnash is an alternative: http://www.gnu.org/software/gnash/

Drzen,

thanks for the quick answer. I'll try that !
AJ

Lipo: cool video, thanks for sharing. The AQs was the most interesting hand imo. i was surprised you shoved. I think this is a spot where some post flop play might be a better option? I just think it was a little too early too be shoving over raises even if it was from CO. You mention calling commits approx 10% of your stack but surely that's fine and gives you plenty room to get away from the hand?

Other than that i liked your plays, some good comedy value in there too! eagerly awaiting next installment.

I would like to see videos where the guy explain interesting hands in popopop.

I mean, on SNG icons (and that's why I'll unregister soon), watching people playing on stars is sooo boring. Every videos I've seen, I feel I learned almost nothing.
On the other side, on cardrunners, I've watched some cash games videos of Verneer and he selected hands and explained his thought process in popopop.
On the first one, he explained how to play pairs and the whole video is about is thought process, ranges, ... It was so so so interesting.

I would really like to see that about SNGs. There are a lot of good players on 2+2 so it would be very interesting if you could make a video like that. For example, a lot of people sucks playing JJ-KK on Ahigh board, it's super easy to select in your HHs the hands like that and regroup them in a HH and then make a video in popopop ...

Hey, I enjoyed your video. Very entertaining and informative.

We actually play a lot alike, except for the fact that you shove more liberally on or near the bubble and in the money. This is food for thought as far as my game is concerned, and it appears that I might have to open up my game somewhat in these situations. I'd like to see more examples (and commentary) about this in future videos to further validate the point.

I have a little feedback to offer.

The quality is blurry. Is there anything you can do about that? It's just a nit-pick. It's almost impossible to see how much you are betting or raising unless you actually say so. When you got down to one table it was very easy to see the stack sizes and bet sizes, but not so when four tables were on the screen.

As for playing more games, I don't have a problem with that (I usually do 4 or 9), but because you're also providing commentary and analysis, when you get down near the bubble in all four games (and this will happen) it's going to be going so fast that it will be difficult to give meaningful analysis about stack sizes, bet sizes, player profiles, strategy etc. Considering that most of the professional sites offer commentary about only one or two games at a time, doing this with four games is a really good idea. I know it might bore you, but for the purpose of education, I think with commentary, four games is an ideal number of games for a demonstration video.

My suggestion is to do a series of four game videos first and then do a six, eight or nine game series after that if you're so inclined.

Still and all it was a very good job. I know making these videos can be a real pain (I've tried it), and I appreciate you taking the time to share them with us.
