Flint I see your reasoning for betting the turn. What is the point of hitting the nutz if you cant win a sizable pot. However, maybe an A or 3 to a stra8 comes out on the river giving someone a hand. If someone has the Q they will likely raise a river bet anyway. Since you have basicly the nutz I think check an bet river like a bluff would be your most profitable move.

On the 72 hand I aggree that if you would not be comfortable putting all of your chips in on that flush for the show down when he reraises you should just call. More times than not you have the best hand but if you are not ready to call the re-raise just call as he will re-raise with a good amount of hands there. As an added benifit showing the 72s makes you look reckless and will give you more action.

Overall it looks like you got some great hands and overall played well (KK shove was only big mistep IMO). Glad to hear you are turning things around. Looking forward to Part 2!

Im agree with 72 hand. Its a really good video, thx for u time.

u think its wrong doing a call to see flop with AJ,KJ, or something like that, in video the most of time u fold this hands.

If there is a re-raise then these are quite easy to fold as it very hard to play on any flop that doesn't give you the nuts since you might have been dominated or if you hit the jack, the opponent might have queens or better.



As to part 2 of the video. I have been having trouble making it since I want to condense the rest of the tournament in a video that is about half an hour (and there are about 3 times more hands than in the first video). I am thinking of just picking out the hands I deem important and making a video on that. What do you think of that?

Another idea is that I send the hand history to someone who picks out the hands they deem important and they make a video with commentary and any questions that they might have. I think this would be a better option, but is anyone willing to do this?

Ok, so I will probably make it with the first idea and be able to concentrate on the most important hands.

The challenge is not going that well, I have been able to come close to even from being down over 2k at the worst point. The good thing is that I have some of my passion back from the game and coaching my friend has helped me make my own game more solid. So the future looks very promising. I am on my summer vacation now till fall so I will have plenty of time to put in some hours, I just have to stop procrastinating :D

I have mostly been playing a bit smaller tournaments with $10-20 buy-in with a fields of 100 or less. I have been really killing these with a very high amount of final tables.

I will update more in the challenge thread soon and unless someone wants to help me with the video by providing commentary and questions, I will try to get it done in the next few days.

You just double click the hand and then click the replay hand button. Its quite funny that just as I wanted to finish the second part, I have been hit by throat ache and a bit of fever :eek:

Agree with the criticism of 72 flush.

And in the shove of KK i think you could have gotten more chips in that situation, maybe a min raise would have been more profitable.

Anyway, im enjoying a lot and learning by watching the videos, now heading to watch part 2 ;)
