In S4Y new youtube On Second thought. Berkey analyzes his HERO fold in only 30 minutes.

Berkey has Ac8s and folded on turn Ad9s3sQs. The equilibrium poles have shifted, Berkey is the GOAT.

The best is when his opponent has a set and just overbets because lol i have a set.

No regard for board texture or ranges. Sounds about right.

Also if any of you guys have a spare $1000 lying around you can get 1 hour coaching from Berkey.

Or you can just light in on fire.

While making this open, I will keep in mind the ever changing strategies of my opponents and will adjust accordingly. Given the infinite spectrum of possibilities of what could happen, I believe opening with AQ offsuit will be the highest EV play.

Guy2: I'm looking at 74s on the button and normally this would be a fold, but I believe calling is great as a variation play. I block 77 and my hand is very disguised. My range can be really wide, because of cosmic range shifting. So without futher ado, I will make this call.

Guy3: I have T9s in the BB, and I'm going to call because I have a good hand. I've also turned off my noise cancellation head phones so that I can hear everything that everyone else is saying. I believe this will give me a profound advantage going to the flop.

Flop: K92r

Guy1: So, this is a flop that is quite dry, but economically structures well with my range duel realization. Because of a meta dogma anti-strategy, I'm going to go for a full polarization strategy so that I can pivot my equity to realization and possibly over realization. So I will bet 4x the pot. My opponents are going to have a hard time continuing with a lot of their range because the large sizing makes it unprofitable for them to do so.

Guy2: This is a really interesting spot with 74s. I could consider calling here as a float since I have the backdoor flush, but I also have to be concerned about the BB player calling. I believe the convulsion between value and exploitative meta merge downvestment could end up being my demise. I could put in a raise as well since that would further deny everyone's equity, but I would be representing such a small range of hands. I feel like this might be the spot to make a disciplined fold.

Guy3: I heard that my opponent has AQ and the flop came K92. I have the best hand and there is no sense in raising, because based on past play Guy1 is likely to get his hand all-in by the river anyway. I'm going to call.

Turn: K922

Guy1: So, this is a card that really doesn't change the board much. I could be facing 2x, but that hand is proportionally unlikely to the matrix of other binary possibilities. Because of my large sizing and blocking abilities of hands like AK, KQ, and other hands including Q9s, I believe I can probably make a move on this turn. Due to the meta GTO approximation merge pivot pole downbet I can go for a 1/10th sizing to really put my opponent to the test. I really can vagina monkey range my strategic game range grouping and choose this sizing with all of my hands while putting my opponent in an uncomfortable game tree conundrum spot. I will likely continue my aggression on the river by putting my opponent all-in. My opponent probably knows this, because of our mental unspoken banter that exists that is communicated through the emotional ether hierarchy.

Guy3: I'm going to call, because I have the best hand. If my opponent improves, I will likely fold on the river.

River: K9222

Guy1: So this is a spot where I can have AA, KK, and AK where my opposition statistically does not. He would likely 3-bet those preflop, so I can go for an ultra super merge pole bluff. This does two things. It pivots my capitalization from equity to realization. I may even be able to get 9x to fold. I believe Kx could fold as well at a small frequency since my sizing will be so large. I have to move all-in here to maximize the times when my value hands are present within the binary matrix of candidate rotational binomial giraffe brain cube banana target tripple tree merge verge perge gazoomba 7 bet presumption.

Guy3: I have the best hand here and the only decision is to call because I will win. I will also, not tell anybody that I have turned off my noise cancelling head phones so that I can listen in on what people say in future hands.
Brilliant, had me laughing for a good five minutes.

I thoroughly enjoy reading through the diatribe directed at Berkey and S4Y every time this thread is bumped.

It is completely justified.

Funny thing is he replies to a lot of comments under the videos when someone has something to say about the plays. He challenege everybody to come and play with them, and most people obviously decline or stop responding.
The funny part is that when someone answers "Yeah sure, let's play" he's the one who stops responding.

Credit where credit it is due, this latest On Second Thought video was IMO very good, because it went through a few interesting concepts and had hardly any of the usual wacky, made up S4Y strat terms in it.

Methinks Mr. Berkey and crew have been reading this thread!

The video only fell down right near the end when Berkey went into mixed metaphors mode, about climbing mountains etc when a simpler explanation of what he was getting at (the learning curve / the learning process) would have sufficed.

Well done Berkey, I am now (almost) a fan.

His mountain metaphor is cringe worthy.

It would be much more bearable if he was some savant and dropping knowledge but it just comes off as a mediocre reg trying too hard.

I played at the wynn with one of the dealers in that s4y game, I just realized. He wasn't too bad. Kept nursing a 30bb stack instead of topping up though, which was weird.

Nick Howard is actually a very good poker player and has released amazing courses like Ether/Night Vision/Pio Unlocked etc.

But I think he got caught up in the Solve4WHY parade and completely strayed away from playing well. He comes across as a bad reg in the first video - which is the exact opposite of what he is.

I've come to the conclusion that Matt and them read on the Nigerian princes and decided to make that their business model

those emails were intentionally ridiculous with major gaps in logic and poor grammar/spelling to in effect weed out any plausibly sophisticated recipient

it cost salmost nothing to send out 100 million emails but it does take a lot of time to personally communicate with people who respond

if only 1/10,000 recipients will be dumb enough to fall for it, you don't want 1 in 100 responding and then wasting your time on "bad leads" who will sniff it out and drop out soon enough so you make it dumb enough to get close to where only those stupid enough to be marks will respond initially

they figured their clients would be largely people with little big picture understanding so decided to mix in a bunch of really fancy word salad because it impresses them so much they think they need to pay more money to understand those elite concepts like the triple range merge

You're ragging on emails with poor grammar/spelling without a single punctuation mark and three capitalized words in your post?

I watched a couple of solve4why videos on youtube. I was amazed at how people can talk a lot without actually saying anything. They're even worse than politicians.

Every hand I watched, there was at least one person using fancy play syndrome and then justifying it with a load of buzzwords to make it sound like they know what they're doing.
