I had a couple of unsuccessful video attempts a few months ago due to technical problems, now however I finally managed to upgrade the memory in my PC and got Camtasia working properly.

The heading says most of it, except there is no audio (but I try to move my mouse over stacks and players to show what I am thinking). I am finally emerging from a 20-25 buy-in downswong which started in late August, but in this session I run good, the way I can hardly remember…

I don’t know if I play well, but I am on my A-game for sure, despite a few horrible brain farts in the upper left table, mostly related to preflop limping, and also one time-out with a playable hand. I am not card dead, I flop well or very nice board textures to cbet. I can’t remember the last time poker was this easy for me! My plan was to be a 200NL regular by year end but because of the downswong I can’t realistically see that happening.

I played 275 hands in the session, in a bit less than an hour. Made $171.75 profit, 62.45bb/100. Other stats:
16.4/12.4/24 (no typo, that is what HEM says…)
steal pct 27.8
3bet% 4.0
sqz% 5.9
flop cbet% 75.0 (success 91.7%)
w$wsf 57.6, wtsd% 12.1, w$sd% 100.

The reason why I’m putting this video up is I thought it is about time I got some criticism from other players, outside opinion, which areas I am horrible, do I do anything ok, etc etc. Hopefully the fact that there is no commentary does not restrict reviews too much. Please be cruel when needed.

Thank you. I am cross-posting at DeucesCracked Members Video forum.

Downloading now, will let you know what I think when I have the time to watch it properly, sounds like you had a decent session!

Sorry the download keeps crashing on me when it gets to about 2mb?

Is there something wrong with mega upload at the moment?

I d/l'ed it fine.

You limp too much. I'm only half way though and i've seen you limp behind 2 fish with ATo and open limp/call with 66 in the HJ. These 2 plays alone represent enormous leaks.

How exactly do I dl the video?

Don't usually do that. As I said, had a couple of brain farts in the upper left table. But I agree totally, not a smart thing to do.

I think on ~13min mark when I had a 2nd nut flush draw and a gutshot I could've bet turn instead of checking behind in the middle. Good idea?

Shameless bump. Either I'm an expert player, or I should get worried now...

This is enough for me to not download it, sorry

I started to watch last night, but got distracted when there was no sound. Will try again here later.

no audio

didn't make it past 5min, sorry.

No problem, pal.

But don't start'a cryin' when I one day get good at pokers, move up and whip your ... ! and you have no clue what the heck just happened...

But seriously, I understand the lack of audio is a major problem, the thing is, it was my first video and I doubt commentary would have been of any use, very difficult for a beginner to word one's poker thoughs (if there are any...) real-time.

Could a mod move this to Micro FR sticky with a list of other videos, if possible? There is at least one there already without audio.

thanks

I'm not DLing just because there is no audio, sorry... I would and I'm sure I could benefit from watching but I have a really small attention span.

I'm really interested in how your thinking through the hands you play. Discussion about what you will do if villain does x y z and how you react to it and for what reasons. I'd like to make a video for my own benefit but feel I may not fulfill peoples needs in this area. I guess its hard to make some constructive criticism if we don't know more information then the actions you take.

Why not lay some audio over the top then re-upload?
