Great video! I was curious about the KJo hand at the 20 minute mark. My attempt to solve the hand had your KJo combo calling 100% of the time. Great overall analysis!
Yeh it is a call, but in practice I think it's massively underbluffed as there's no natural bluffs for villain.
24:30 I thought you were going to fold this for sure and just call better hands like A10s+ that 3bets preflop. Any ace has King kicker here, I thought he was making an exploit type shove with AdQx or AdXd. One hell of a call!
Do you make any other training videos or only for RIO? Maybe a youtube stream?
Yeh maybe a bit of a punt call, dono. But my explanation in video sums up why I called. I don't do other training videos no, maybe in the future - but I'm busy enough atm.
I didn't have exact sizes, but the solve I had the KhJh was only -.01 EV in this spot prefers unblocking hearts and diamonds, but I'm sure if I adjust the sizes to the exact sizes used in game or just alter the ranges just a tad! It quickly becomes +EV. Your analysis was spot on I agree.

nice video. i was curious though, are these videos from last year or something? cos im pretty sure that is the older software, and many of these regs rarely seem to play 500z any longer.
would be good to get some content from your current games, even if that isn't necessarily zoom (as i think i seen you grinding on GG on someone's stream recently). always nice to mix it up as well for the viewer.
nice reasoning for the KJhh call down as well. at first i thought it was too loose (which it still may be, depending on how he plays AK pre and if he flats many of those low suited connectors pre) but it definitely made a lot of sense that blocking the K could actually be better than the A. i guess it depends on if he jams Ax for value otr there, trying to get you off the chop, or occasionally to call with worse. if he doesn't, then the Kx blocker is massive. if he does, then the call is probably punting.
RIO seems behind on releasing content. I noticed this as well with both essential and elite content. A lot of the video footage coaches are releasing is from December.
The videos are from around Christmas I believe. RIO currently have a backlog and I would've updated them if a lot has changed in my game/strategy, but it hasn't, so I'm happy for RIO to push these ones out. I will be putting new ones out from May.
Gary Chappell RunItTw1ce ah okay that explains it, appreciate the response. i still watch all your vids anyways, but was just curious about this.
