Concept Video #2 - 3bet pots and how to deal with them

Well, after 5 hours of rendering and an hour of uploading, this video is finally ready to be released. I don't really know how to compress the videos any more than it is already, but it's 165mb and I'm very sorry about that. The video was intended to go around 40 minutes like last week's, but I didn't wanna cut out any information so it ended up being 62 minutes.

That said, I think this video is miles ahead of the first video I posted last week. I wrote down an outline that I was going to follow and I believe I covered everything well with regards to 3-bet pots. I tried not to cover too much of the hands in the video due to the fact that the video would end up being 2 hours or more if I did try to talk about everything in 3bet pots as well as cover every hand I play. Because of that I will be answering questions about hands in this thread, although there really were no interesting hands, it was just me playing a bunch of boring hands and then stacking two people with queen high (I won't reveal much about that but that's a small spoiler).

Here is the copy of my outline written exactly as it's written on my notebook on my desk:

Quote:
1. Opening
a. discuss what this video entails

2. What happens when we 3bet
a. We put pressure on opponents
b. We re-gain the initiative

3. Who to 3bet
a. Tighter more than looser

4. Marginal 3bet hands are trouble
a. Talk about polarized ranges
b. ATo, KJo suck, etc...

5. Countering 3bets
a. Calling OOP sucks
b. Discuss 4bet bluffing frequencies

6. What not to do
a. Defending dominated hands
b. Defending too much if you're tight
c. 4bet sizing - know what you want to accomplish
d. 3betting too small
I hope you guys enjoy this video, and as always post any questions about theory or about the hands that I didn't talk about in the video and I'll be glad to answer. Please try to include a minute mark so I can quickly go back to find the hand. I put a LOT of effort into this video and I'm very pleased with the result. I hope you guys will be too.

P.S. - If someone wants to upload to rapidshare I'll edit the link into the OP.

It's only a matter of time before this kid gets picked up by a smart video site, given the quantity and quality of uNL videos currently out there

Re: Concept Video #2 - 3bet pots and how to deal with them

Thac,

Just for future reference, would you be able to keep a log of your past videos as you post a new video so that if we missed the first one, we don't have to go searching for it?

Just for convenience. Thank you for everything.
