i rate wilt on tilt pretty highly. He has a 6m series that's comparatively recent, although the stakes might be a bit high?

vanessa/dj sensei fps series is Unconventional Wisdom. They also did a followup, Unconventional Wisdom 2. Those 2 series really helped to elevate my fps game to the next level imo (that last sentence was a joke, but the series are both still really good for learning how to think at level 2, 3 and beyond).

so for the free DC trial you have to sign up and then cancel later?
Post Crazy Poker Happenings to Share with Poggers here Quote

Until the 21st(?), you just have to sign up. Takes 30 secs and doesn't require a credit card or anything.

After that, you can get a one week free trial by subscribing with a credit card and cancelling before 7 days is up.

I'd recoomend Pr1nnyraiding for sure. It's fairly basic HU stuff but categorizing villains etc. is usefull. All the Beluga Whale stuff is pretty good.
I wrote the first version of that guide FWIW

Personally I'd have used the free days to check out their mixed game content because they have some pretty nice stuff

also the 8fold path of poker wisdom is good if you'd like to think about tilt. I tend to think abt things in different ways to them, but it's a good starting point imo

he's a lot of ppl's favourite coach, but I just don't get all the baluga whale love, tbh. There's a pretty recent lecture of his on 3 betting if you look.

(does improva have any videos? He's a pretty decent video maker i think)

I don't play poker seriously anymore, but I recreationally dink around on Full Tilt once in a while.

Lately my preferred game for fun is $10 Rush PLO.

If I played this seriously again I'd be playing all weekend, I tell you what.

so you know i've seen this thread around .. never really read it but wasn't ever sure what entitled something to be a crazy poker happening .. but now i know.

basically i'm at the final table of a 27 man 10$ and there's this guy fatcatfat-ps (my new arch enemy) who i keep ended up all in against. anyway, there are about ten hands we play ..

first .. my AKo against his K5d .. he hits a flush

about 10 minutes later i have TT against his KK and I riv a T

about half an hour later (3 way now) we have a serious of consecutive hands that goes like this

me: AKo fat: KJo .. flops a full house
me: AJo fat: AJo .. i hit four clubs to win
me: JJ fat: JJ .. i flop three diamonds (but never get the fourth lol but still! it was quite a nail-biter :P)

then about 5 minutes later he calls my AQo with Q8o and hits a 6-10 straight to knock me out

lame that i definitely got the short end of the stick here but definitely worth it for the story .. i hope it's not one of those, you had to be there stories, cuz it was seriously crazy!
