[SIZE=-1]Sweating (also called perspiration or sometimes transpiration) is the production and evaporation of a fluid, consisting primarily of water as well as a smaller amount of sodium chloride (the main constituent of "table salt"), that is excreted by the sweat glands in the skin of mammals.
Now if you want to know how that applies to poker, I have no idea

Well I mean basically we've got it set up so he can watch my screen as I play and we're talking through Skype. So I can reason through my decisions, he can comment on my play, etc. Again, no idea why it's called sweating, but that's what it means in this context.

I like watching these vids, interesting stuff.
The audio is very very quiet though you are right, I have headphones maxed out on volume and I can only hear you, it sounds like you are having a convo with yourself
AHHHH it just went mad loud like 22 mins into it and i think i blrew my eardrums out holy shit

9.22 mins in. you have Aj and flop top pair. you bet the turn and say that you would just check the river for pot control if he calls. I think this sort of defeats the purpose of pot control as you really want to use pot control to avoid the big bets on the turn and river so by betting the turn you are not keeping the pot small enough to be able to call there river bet with TP. I think a better line on this drawy board would be to check behind on the turn and check a river scare card/call a small bet or bet a non scare card.
I can see some mathmatical advantage in my line because when you do have the best hand at showdown you usually only win your turn bet of $11(assuming villian dosnt call retardly) and when you dont you loose your $11 + whatever else he bets on the river.
So by checking down you have a higher chance of getting maximium showdown value out of your hand whilst avoiding these tough spots on the river.
11 mins in. min raises usualy mean big hands. theres a thread in 2p2 micro FR about them thats very interesting.
22 mins in. **** me the sound just got turned up lol.
42 miins in. with the 88, chuck you say his flop bet is weak, and then you would call. why? why not raise his flop bet and dont give him the chance to catch up cheaply. you also put him to a decision as this raise gives you heaps of leverage.
the double barrelling article is very good.
44 mins in. KQo on the button with 2 limpers. RAISE RAISE RAISE! punish those limpers.

Finally got the chance to watch this, more great stuff guys.
One minor side note: Chuck, I heard you tell Zach that PT's 'Attempt To Steal' statistic measured when you raised first in from the hijack, cutoff, or button, when it really represents raising first in from the cutoff, button, or small blind. Very minor, but just so you know.

Firstly to mix it up a bit, secondly to thin the field. We don't have any idea where we're at if we don't set, as we could have the best hand, could be up against overs, etc. We've also established ourself as the aggressor and can take the pot down with a cbet if we miss and because our opponent has a strong hand if we both hit (our hitting most likely being bigger) then we have a better shot of getting paid off.
