joose semi-lag 100max session

woke up feeling like i wanted to accomplish something and played this. the beginning of the session i made a few missteps but i made 3 plays towards the middle/end that i feel make it worth watching. feedback plz.

MEGAUPLOAD - The leading online storage and file delivery service

Just started downloading, but wow, file is huge.

I'll post feedback after its done loading in like an hour, and then watching it which will be sometime in the morning after I sleep today.

Downloading now mato.

I don't know if anyone else has this problem, but all I get is your voice joose, and as pleasing as that is, I was expecting the picture as well.

So, is it like that for everyone else as well? Or just my laptop?

Because its an AVI file, you probably just havent got the right codec to play it.

Try downloading DivX Video Player - DivX Video Codec - DivX Converter and playing it through that player. Its like windows media player but it plays alot more formats...

Well, I can get sound OR video but not both together through the same player.

LoL!

uhhhhhhhhhh...

Not sure what to do now...

I can play it through windows media player with sound and picture by downloading the following codec called tssc codec at the following link. i have not watched it all though as i will watch it later when i get home from work.

www.techsmith.com/download/codecs.asp

I will download it and take a look, thanks Joose. I like watching your guys'z videos!

thanks ace, i did not know they used a proprietary codec or i woudlve posted it.

im downloading it now

Downloading now, looking forward to it.

downloading, looking forward to it joose!

Stop using WMP and download VLC player, people.

Edit: Will watch when I get home.

no probs joose. glad to help.

^^

Works fine for me in VLC.

Techsmith codec works on my WMP.

I'm 22 mins in. Joose, that Q9 play was terrible. You got a raise UTG to 4x BB and 2 callers. Then you re-raise and say "He can't call without a crazy-good hand." When he does, you call his $20 turn bet? Yes, he checked the flop & the river. But then you say "If that Ace doesn't come, I probably do make a play." Wow! He was playing carefully out of position, but that was a pretty bold statement.

Either that whole play was horrible or I'm the weakest, tightest player on earth. Share with us your thoughts on that hand now that you've had a while to think it over.

Get VLC Player, works with every video type and I've never had a problem with it.

VLC media player - Overview

*And if you need codes, just download this it has about every single one in one package:

Combined Community Codec Pack

Ive just downloaded it and am starting to watch it now. Thanks for sharing, i belive you are a great player and i hope to learn something from this video.

btw what software do you use to record? the quality is brill.

Just finished watching the whole video. Thought you played very good and learned a lot about playing with position and the LAG style you play with. I didnt think the Q9 hand was played badly, I agreed with your analysis of the hand at the end of the video. On a side note i dont know how you move around as quickly as you do, it seems that mouse is clicking 100 times per minute, lol. I thought I was pretty quick doing things on a computer but you have me crushed.

That 5 8 hand was fun.....that's definitely something I need to learn. :P

Nice video, definitely got something out of it.

One thing I didn't understand, why throw away A Q? That seems like a hand I would love to get........

Btw, I live in Memphis

because i plan on making a play. i call the $20 turn bet because these hands bet out that we are ahead of or can push off of on the river:

aa
jj
tt
99
etc

that's what makes the call +EV. the check behind & cold call on the turn is very scary to aa. he cant call a pot bet on the river with aa without an overfull or a super strong read.

he had like 8 vpip and 1 pfr. i will not give him action.

I'm still not getting my head around this. In my mind (besides KK) AK,KQ,KJ,AQ,QQ, & AA are all hands that beat us and are fully possible to call us down here at 50c/$1 NL. It seems you are counting on a quality laydown from a crop of players that might not be as good as you think. That's not tight thinking on my part. It's reality, IMO. (no offense)

Anyway, my other question was: Why didn't you have your PAHUD overlay numbers on? Did you turn them off just for the video or do you usually run without them? I noticed you used the popup stats quite a bit.

Were those stats you kept getting of people from poker tracker?

they are on, you just cant see them. keep in mind this is a semi-lag style. i plan on making videos of TAG/LAG/TPP/etc. KQKJ are not calling a massive reraise oop with 3 left to act preflop. the only hands that will call that are ak/tt/jj/qq/99. maybe 8s. aa/kk reraises to isloate.

Oh, you mean the video software doesn't pick up the stats layer? OK.

Maybe I have a problem with thinking people are sneakier than they are. I've been beat by so many stealth moves that I am weary of everyone doing it to me. Reminds me of when Jennifer Tilly checked down her boat on "Poker After Dark" because she thought Gus Hansen was slowplaying quad Kings.

But I still think AA/KK are fully capable of calling your raise and not re-raising PF. Not everyone "isolates" every time. But I'll stay open-minded, Master Joose.

I'm only half done with the video, anyway.

^^It was patrick antonius who she thought had quad kings.^^
just thought id say. lol

Thanks Ace, it works now. I'll post some comments later joose after I watch it.

"thought I'd chronicle my play on one two, excuse me fifty cent one cent"
LOL, you meant to say fifty cent one dollar.
Hee hee, I'm watching.

yeah i had just woken up from a 12 hour sleep fest after coming back from memphis. i wasn't all there (and you can tell by one or two of the moves i make.. KQ when i think someone is stealing my bb & the AT button shove)

Yeah I could tell you weren't paying too much attention (when you rivered 2 pair with AJ but claimed to be afraid of your opponent having flopped 9s and 5s).
Still a fun video though good job.

i enjoyed the above video session , joose. i spotted the same thing vanquish did and was wondering whyu did not raise. make more as i like cash game play and would like to c ur insights on a longer session.

joose man ive got to say, that was an amazing video and I definitely learned a lot. I must say I think one of the biggest leaks in my game is I focus too much on the cards, and I do get very afraid when im betting. The hand I loved was the q-10 with the a-2-a flop. My question was why wouldnt you think he has trips with the 5 dollar bet? I dont remember pot size, and I play 25NL so its a different amount, but I would have definitely been wondering about the aces, and man, the balls to push him all in was just something I need to learn.

"that cgl guy, hes not bad, hes just a pussy, I could take him in a fight"

LMAO!

also, I would love to make a video of one of my own sessions to get some critique from CC members, what software do you use for that?

The best play was the monster reraise with 85.

Didn't give me audio.

I used my normal program (Nero ShowTime) and had no problems.

I can watch them all through WMP easy, I have had the codec's installed for awhile. Its real simple either download the condec (no idea if im spelling that right) or like dorkus said get VLC.


I cant watch this now joose but will tomorrow after work.
