Sam begins his first Zoom video with some thoughts on how it differs from a traditional ring game and the increased value that a HUD can contribute.

Hey Sam, really enjoyed this video.
You made some very good points bout stealing from late position. I was playing even tighter ABC in ZOOM and used the quick fold button way too often.

Your videos are getting better and better. Keep it up!!!

Hi Sam, great vid as per usual.
I have a really REALLY important question. What does your dark pink "ggfnngf" note mean? :P

Hey Sam,

Nice video. Got a question. In the middle of the video you faced a raise from a 25/16 MP when you are on the button holding QT83ds. What is your reasoning to not flat here? It seems to me that flatting here should be fine given the playability of our hand and position

Hey dude,

I think calling is definitely an option, and is gonna be profitable if we can assume our opponent to be fairly straightforward postflop. I guess given the format of 4 tabling zoom, it is inevitable to make some mistakes preflop, fold in a close spot where calling would have been a profitable option, so I do expect some preflop mistakes by myself. Also a thing to consider is the value in calling vs the value in cranking out some more hands. In this instance I agree that this would have been a fine hand to call with IP and it was probably a small mistake by myself to be folding, however by no means a huge mistake. I do in general try to play lots of pots IP and to apply pressure wherever possible, but due to the format and quick decisions needed in zoom maybe this was one spot that I did not capitalize on.

Is this game even beatable in light of gui166's post of 100plo rake yesterday on 2+2?

Also, what is an optimal redline in zoom? I see some winning regs have upward sloping or flat redlines...is that optimal?

The AJT9ds hand in the beginning... You 3bet and get 4bet after the limper calls.
I mean you have invested 13$ and there is still the possibility that the other guy shoves his little over 100BB stack and so you basicly are forced to get it in with over 200BB vs 95% AAxx...

Is this realy standard?

Just after the 23 minute mark you open folded t988ss utg+1, surely a misclick / mistake right? Perhaps one of the example of people autofolding to much you mentioned at the start?? :)
