Cheers lads!
It seems like you don't have a great overall grasp on theory, just based on what we have seen in the thread.

That's fine, but you should label it as such. It's perfectly acceptable to say "I don't know what the theory dictates in this spot, but in my experience doing this has worked well for my strategy".

Having a strategy, any strategy, that you understand well is better than knowing all of the theory in the world, but not being able to execute.

You get backed in a corner when you say that what you are doing is theoretically sound, get told it isn't, and then have to jump through hoops through node locking and other means. Just be up front.

If it was my intention to sit down and talk about theory in these videos, the video would be of piosolver, not hand history footage.

What's this all about? I see people dissing OP very often but from this thread and from posts he's made on other peoples threads he's always come across as alright to me.

I might be wrong here but it goes like this:

Meale used to be a shitreg. A couple of certain previous banned posters used to love going on threads to **** on people as much as possible to make themselves feel better even though they didn't play higher than 50nl.

He then hired a coach and started to become competent at poker. A little time after, pokerking Asia banned literally every club outside of China to make sure nobody was colluding or using RTA and the club's were slowly released one by one when there were no cheaters. These couple of banned tards jumped on the bandwagon when they found out meale club (who he was an affiliate for) was banned by pokerking and started claiming he was colluding and scamming people. His club was finally released and everyone got their funds back and was allowed to play again on Pokerking. Scamming accusations didn't stop though for some reason.

And he also made a second Iggy account so he could rb. One of his accounts got banned and he was allowed to play on the other. Like who gives a **** about that lol.

The guy is likely mirage who keeps making random accounts. Pretty dumb posts but whatever.

He used to post about Thailand nightlife which if you do that, it seems to attract some weird people to your thread. And some of them just stuck around.

You are wrong yes. The people linked to him got banned for collusion. They didn’t get banned to prevent it.
The coach he “hired” is just as much scum as he is. He multi-accounts ignition which to any non brain dead **** is a red flag. Of course you believe the rb explanation.

He’s still **** at poker as shown by his last few attempts to explain himself. This guy is selling coaching. Ha.

You should prob fire your coach

"Our hand is too strong to fold the flop"

"I believe we need to turn our hand into a bluff on the turn"

How is the board "Dicey" on Q64T???? lol....

That 99 bet is a really grave mistake and terrible for your winrate if you're doing stuff like that often. It's actually the worst hand in your entire range to bet on the turn.

Yeah you make a good point, I should probably show some restraint and use 66-77 for the double kamikaze bluff. Ty. I do feel Its a spot we can overbluff but prob at the very least never use this combo!

66 is a set, 77 is more reasonable than 99 but should still mostly try to win on showdown even if overbluffing is profitable. 65/54 actually have three more outs and can get even more better hands to fold. A5, KJ, and 87 all can't win unimproved on showdown too.

Yep. That's perfect. I think I'll start with that and throw 77 in because I can't help myself. 88 if we think we can get folds outta top pair otr, do you think this is a spot people just sigh call AQ or bin it?

Why are you not fact checking these videos? With regard to the video in SB's post, a LOT of what you said is plain wrong. I cannot understand why you don't learn the spot first for yourself before uploading content. I honestly feel the video would do more harm than good to a low stakes grinder whom is buying their first coaching content; you're coaching them to check range OOP OTT on Q64T and then stab 99 (which is bad enough at EQ, and even worse if OOP is checking range). How is either ever a thing? It should take you all of 15 minutes to figure out that you're wrong, why you're wrong, and instead what to do. Not to totally **** on your parade here, but that video is honestly negative value IMO

I don't know how you keep up with this thread, Meale. It's a negative freeroll: barely anyone thanks you when you offer something valuable but there is always someone on your back when you make a debatable play. No chance I will ever start a PG&C thread. Ever.

Maybe if he wasn’t so wrong all the time people wouldn’t challenge him on it.

Can you explain how being so horribly wrong is valuable btw for someone who doesn’t know he’s so wrong?

Btw Meale. Thanks for proving me right yet again.

It really isn't a debatable play.....It is very clearly wrong.

How meale doesn't realize that it is bad in game/after it was played/while making the vid is a bit shocking. Would be surprised if almost all other small stakes regs couldn't figure it out.

What I am saying is not that he is never (horribly or not horribly) wrong but I don't see anyone thanking or congratulating him when he is right, if not brilliant. Hence, this thread being a negative freeroll.

Points are fair, I'll delete this video because I agree that it'll do more harm than good.

I've actually learnt a lot over the last few pages because of the negative feedback and it's going to help me produce better content and at the end of the day produce more value for people watching it.

Guys like NVF and Clanty and MicroDonk and Ben have shed light upon some problematic stuff in the videos without being total dicks which is infinitely valuable to me.

River solution for recent J8dd hand, as requested by Nemanja. My guess is that OTT we are overbetting enough **** like AA, AQ, KT, KJ which aren't thrilled about betting river.



The other thing is well is that Pio has BB calling TJo vs the turn overbet quite often so when we stick that back in his range I guess checking river a lot w flushes makes sense.
