10 mins mark TT hand:
I think hero should be X/Ring polarized here 3 way on the flop, 6x or better and bluffs. On this node I think we have 0% slowplay frequency with our value hands on a brick turn? When we check we always only have give up as this is the part of our range that give villain the incentives to call our X/R on the flop (If we have 2 value to 1 bluff on the flop with no give up on turn then villain can just fold flop?). If we are BB vs BTN heads up and BTN bet 1/3 range then we can X/R some PPs and Tx for value/protection, and then in this node we actually have some showdown check back on the turn (Which we will have to check some of our nut hands to balance?). This is my interpretation, not sure if it is right.

1:14 Will opponents often not just fold? Or is it more because we have zero outs (almost) if we do get called?

6:56: Why did hero not bet turn if he decided to bet flop? Besides the 9, T and J, isn't the Q the best turn we can get?

7:45 I fold low pocket pairs to 3 bets. What else then set mining can we really do post flop in these spots?

12:19 Is it okay to flat 77 because there is a half stack in the blinds?

15:37 I often 3-bet a hand like TQs in SB/BB. Is that okay? Or is it better to more often flat this hand like hero did?

16:48 Is A8o not a bit too loose considering the rake at low stakes?

21:08 I call too often here on flops like this. Often "too catch a bluf". Nice point about being good half the time so break even or lose. Would it change much in a SB/BTN BB/BTN situation?

23:12 Green could also mean: GO! GO NUTS!

24:46 Why would you risk a entire stack to make somebody fold? Is the risk/reward worth it? Wouldn't a 70-80% type of bet not accomplish the same?

Good video. I like how emotionally involved you get.

Incredibly good content, Peter's plaintive "No-no-NO" whenever Hero sets up the punt makes me laugh so much
