Fun Game To Play - Download Video!

It has been a while since I last put out a video and this is one with a little difference. There is definitely a lot to be gained from sharpening your ability to read the hands of your opponents. With that in mind this is a demonstration of an exercise I like to do to work on my skills. All you need is PokerTracker and some old hand histories and you are set to try this yourself!

Hopefully you enjoy my heavy breathing during this one. This was a pretty uneventful video, there weren’t that many interesting hands, but I decided to post it anyway. I made a few small mistakes, mostly because I was concentrating on talking and got rushed for time. The resolution is quite crappy so it might be hard to make out specific stack sizes and stats, if you guys would like I can render a larger file to make this possible. Post a comment if you’d like me to do this.

Thoughts on hands would be good too, particularly the big KK hand I would like to know what your play would have been if raised on the turn or river and also the river value bet sizing.

Last night I decided to sign up to Stoxpoker, a coaching web site with videos and forums. I read reviews of all the major video coaching services and they seemed to be the best. They have a few full ring videos, of which I have watched a couple so far. I’ve learned a lot from them already, even though most of them are at stakes a little higher than I play and also there are very few crunch decisions in an hours worth of 2-4 tabling full ring. That being said, I think I will get a lot out of the 6-max and sit and go videos as well.

Once the first few players at full-ring fold, I really need to play more of a 6-max game and I feel like if I can learn a little from these videos and maybe practice a bit at lower stakes, it will improve my full-ring game to no end. With the sit and go videos, my goal for this month is the play a hundred or so sit and go just to break things up a bit, so I might pick up some things there.

This was nearly a month ago now, back when I was at 100NL. I feel like my play has come on a lot since, but overall this video is not too bad. I only cast a glancing eye over it before I uploaded it though. The AA laydown feels kind of wrong post the event, but at the time I remember just being so sure it was beat. On reflection, maybe he really could play AQ like that, his turn bet was kind of weak. Anyway, let me know your thoughts!
