What you've seen in the videos is the vast majority of my play over the past few months. When I started the vlog I made a conscious decision to make it the way I wanted it to come out, quality wise, regardless of how many hours that took away from grinding. Which in turn guarantees I would be making less money, to start. Luckily I've been running amazing. So my income hasn't taken much of a dent during this stretch.
I'm going to address this in the vlog but I had a medium sized downswing just before starting the episodes. Between 9/15 and 9/28 I lost $8331. I don't have to tell you guys that looking at these tiny samples is basically meaningless. But I'm well aware of how the small sample in the videos looks skewed to look more positive. I certainly don't claim to be some poker genius and have repeatedly said in the vlog that we're (I'm) running really well, and that it doesn't always work like this.
Also, when I'm analyzing hands in the videos, I rarely if ever say something like "this is what you should do." I often say things like, "I think," "I'm not sure what's best here," "I don't like my sizing," "you can maybe do this or this, I decided to do this," etc. I'm not trying to sell myself as an expert and have no expectations of ever making strategy videos for Run It Once.
I also knew that I would never put in the work required to beat reg-heavy afternoon 5/10 games at the bellagio for a respectable clip (by professional players' standards). So I decided to make videos instead and see where that goes.
Although I have been getting lots of free coaching in the comments, so that's nice.
