1. Min Raising to Induce Action is a fairly standard move in NLHE with very strongs hands (AA, KK and AK in particular) - usually someone will Reraise or go All-In, thinking you are weak. It is rare to end up 4 Ways playing that way and I don't remember that particular hand, to be honest. If I announced my hand that is something I rarely do - if I do I will pretend I have a great hand or I really do have it. It confuses my opponents and makes them make mistakes. You're also forgetting that whilst your Win Odds are lower 3 or 4 way, the amount of chips you win is also far greater.

2. TT - When you get 4 Flat Callers, it is indeed correct to go ALL-IN with 99 and above, as you are nearly always ahead, plus you have the Fold Equity too.

3. You still haven't answer my 3 Questions - I think you know you'll get some of the answers wrong.

4. If you played me Heads-Up in 5 match-ups, I would Win at least 3.

It appears you don't know quite as much about poker as you think you do. These 2 hands were played correctly (not that they can't also be played others ways too). Losing with one and Winning not a huge amount with the other doesn't change the fact they were played well. You are having partially Results-based thinking there.

I give up haha, I guess some people need to feel like they are good at something or an expert in your words, so carry on thinking it I guess.
But yea you think it was correct, carry on thinking that also and keep loosing I don't care.
What you going to achieve out of playing 5 hu games? Is that a good sample size expert?
Next time though I would suggest not declaring your hand before showdown, just a suggestion.

Are you suggesting 15?

I briefly explained why both plays were good. You don't think so. That doesn't make you right.

Oh yes 15 would be a really good sample size hahahaha let's do that, you would 100% win 9 of those 15 games HU right? If you would DEFINITELY win 3 put 5...
Well ask 100 people guarantee they would say it wasn't good.
You teach people to play like you, online poker will be booming again.

Judging by your comments on Spraggy's stream earlier, your short-handed game definetly needs some work.

I am generally very good to excellent Heads-Up and 3-handed. I win Heads-Up significantly more than I lose.

When I reach Final Tables, I do indeed usually come 1st, 2nd or 3rd (and there's always some bad or good luck involved too as we all know).

Spraggy is a top player but he definitely played too many weak hands and bluffed far too much, bleeding chips unnecessarily in that Heads-Up Finale and the other guy wasn't even a top player... If he played like that against me, he would lose far more often than he won.

Yes, 15 is definitely a very reasonable sample size. Most players would play 10 at the most. But, of course, you are always right!

Possibly a small increase, but not for the reasons you are insinuating.

Like I said before, you are a know-it-all and a highly criticial, generally negative person and that type of player mostly just criticises and tells good players they are playing wrong, not realising it is them who are wrong (and I'm not saying that you are not sometimes right).

You are clearly wasting my time not taking onboard anything I say and you STILL haven't even attempted to answer ONE of my 3 Questions I posted earlier. For someone who can point out how I play so badly, and presumably also numerous others, your poker knowledges seems very weak and you do not comprehend sound reasonining why playing hands in different ways to yourself is either okay, good or excellent.

Due to your repeated negativiity and very patronising and condescending attitiude, this is the end of my discussion with yourself.

I'm not saying he played perfectly and I personally might have played a couple of spots differently but Spraggy was specifically a heads-up pro for like 3 years and won around 200k IIRC which he later brought a house with, so as you can imagine you trying to give strat advice to him for virtually every hand over twitch chat looked a little silly.

If you final table and then go heads up on your stream for the best part of $1k+ you will realise how annoying it is when someone on chat thinks they know best and questions every decision you make... even more so when the advice is pure trash as yours was, literally everything you said while I was there was wrong or bad advice.

I didn't question every decision he made Heads-Up, I only specifically critiqued about four hands, as I recall. They were quite a few similar ones I just silently groaned at without saying anything.

I agree, so I would hide chat whilst I was playing 3-Way and Heads-Up. You need to concentrate more and play is much faster.

No, it wasn't trash talk and no, it was not either wrong or bad advice. As I recall, two of my earlier critiques were either debateable or borderline about which way to play them. I was simply trying to help Ben play better and win it. He would be one of the first to admit he didn't play that well there, but I am sure his fatigue played a part in this. Also, as I have already said, I admit that I should've kept quieter and talked less whilst he was 3-Way and Heads-Up.

I don't claim to know it all, but I do know poor play and chip-bleeding when I see it.

I see the 2+2 Forums are just as friendly and uncritical as they used to be LOL.

15 is a reasonable sample size, just give up now LOL.. Looks like you really know how variance works then if you think 15 games is a good sample size for any game.
You have probably made less than 5 final tables in your life with your 600 lifetime game sample size.

Why have you deleted all your twitch streams they are absolute gold hahaha... wanted to watch some to recap how to play before I start this afternoon.

You can check out my Starting Hand Videos and see for yourself that I am indeed an Expert in NLHE Starting Hands:

I am sure you will manage to find many things to criticise about them somehow, though... or maybe I will be pleasantly surprised by your responses?

Actually, I reach Final Tables about 10% - 25% of the time, depending on the size of the Tournament Field.

Far from an expert imho. According to sharkscope on pokerstars you have played 674 tournies . Does that mean u have made between 67 - 168 fts ?
Can you show us your bb/100 winrate from your pt4.

If u want to show people your results all you have to do is sent 0.03 cents to sharkscope from your pokerstars account. I'm sure this will clear things up.
