Good online hands to analyse for concepts Good online hands to analyse for concepts

Just starting to review some higher stakes (500nl+ ?) online hands as part of my study routine - for the purposes of understanding overall concepts, bet sizing etc.

I have been able to find a few on YT, but can anyone else point me in the right direction for where to find 'good' hands to review and study?

Appreciate any help I can get!

thanks!

I can't answer your exact question but can give some ideas about what to avoid:
  • People play differently when they know others are watching. This is especially true of made-for-TV shows like HSP and Poker After Dark. Those shows should be used for entertainment, not education.
  • People adjust to known opponents. The play you are watching may be optimal or exploitative or just plain wrong, depending on the knowledge and mindset of the player. It is rarely possible to pick up on those relevant, but hidden, pieces of information while watching a hand onscreen.
  • People adjust to stakes. Are the onscreen players playing much larger or much smaller than normal? Do they have off-table debts coming due? Did they recently win a major and want to splash around?

It is important not to model your play according to situations that don't apply to you, so avoiding these pitfalls may help.

This along with https://youtube.com/@FindingEquilibrium are the top two channels I would recommend to anyone who wants to improve. Definitely way better than just reviewing hands as they provide their thought process and theory backgrounds behind each play as well as exploits, but - even tho I don't think it's very helpful - if you're interested in just looking at hand histories of (mostly) good players there's a monthly High Stakes thread on this forum where people post big and interesting hands: https://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/2...hread-1814580/.
Best of luck on your poker journey!
