So, this is a short video (about 35 minutes) of me playing 9 2nl tables. Its nothing exciting all, nothing fancy, just straight forward play. I'm not looking for an analysis but if you want to do one, that's cool. I know I made quite a few mistakes. I was just messing around with camtasia and decided to film me playing. No sound, so it might be a little boring...sorry.

Also, you will see a conversation with a friend. Were not a couple or anything, but she is super good and cool friend of mine. She gave me permission to post this with her YM! name showing, but ask me to mention that she would like it if no one PMs her or anything for the time being. So, if you guys wouldn't mind respecting her wishes, I'd appreciate it. She isn't mean at all but she gets a lot of nasty/dirty PMs from guys, so she is just trying to avoid (some) people for now. However, if you would like me to put in a good word for you, I can do that. She does like meeting new people. Or if you just can't resist the urge and have to PM her on YM!, I just ask that you are respectful.

Here is the video: [broken link~tb]

I can download it just fine. Are you downloading another file through MU as a free user a t the same time ? It's limited to one at a time as free user.

Forgot to add this: I'll be doing a transcript of the hands I play and give my thoughts at the time during the hand.

I like it, although i think i may have been linked to the wrong file? It was 4 table 2NL for 20 mins.

Shame about the hands in the final minutes mate. I have to ask, as I am also on 2NL atm, I noticed you folded every Ax suited, A6c A9d etc, can I ask why? In your opinion are they just trouble hands at this limit? Personally I always limp with any Ax suited, could be why I'm losing most of the time at 2NL lol.

I also limp with KQo or KJ suited and you folded those aswell, even from the SB. Is that also common? The vid has got me thinking I maybe playing too many hands and also playing to passively.

Anyways, good vid mate, I look forward to seeing more

...Really? I downloaded the video again and it was the 9-table one.

...Well, I don't like to limp in a lot. I'm either folding or raising and A/Xs isn't really a hand I like to raise with. It also depends on position; I might raise if I'm position and I might limp in if I'm in LP and there are a lot of players in the hand. EP is an automatic fold for me.

I also limp with KQo or KJ suited and you folded those aswell, even from the SB. Is that also common? The vid has got me thinking I maybe playing too many hands and also playing to passively.
...I rank KQ, KJ, QJ hands the same as A/Xs. These aren't hands I really dont want to play without opening with a raise. These hands in EP or OOP are easy folds for me. I can't remember, but I probably folded in SB because I was involved in another hand and didn't want to play KJ OOP.

Anyways, good vid mate, I look forward to seeing more
Thanks. I'll be putting up a 24-table video soon.
