When I run into tough spots where I'm making what feels like tight folds several times in a row like you did in this video I start feeling like I'm getting run over. It's a good reminder that sticking to your instincts and just playing one hand a time is always the best path

Sometimes it may appear that way, but you should always approach each hand individually to the best of your ability and make what you think is the best decision in real time.

Don't stress over the "getting run over" thought.

Spoiler: They're probably not running you over

Nice video!
11: SB v BN 3bp 8d8c2c

Running this spot in a solver with half pot raise size vs 30% cbet it never does it as the whole range prefers call (villain is calling 86% range here), but if you give the solver a smaller raise option like 2.5x (28%) then IP does have a raising range here.

About that AJ hand, I saw a video here on RIO saying the preflop 3b size that generates the most fold eq is 4.5x. I think it was from the small blind also...the main point of the 3b seemed to get folds instead of iso. when I saw his stats I was thinking bet 78-80.

I'm not sure who it was I think Julian Kopansky or Qing Yang but I know it was from here.

For your next 500NL video, would be nice if you just highlight a session of all hands vpip'd and clicked through them on a replayer.

Also if you did all hands face up and reviewed entire session for 500NL you can start to pinpoint how pool is playing their range with PSB, over bets, 3/4 sizing etc. Can look at 100 hands where pool made a PSB and see what percentage of the time it's actually a bluff for PSB. My guess is sub 20% even at 500NL. One of your other videos you did a video on this for 200NL. I think the 500NL pool at least on regular tables is going to be similar.

Any predictions on how BTC will go by end of the year? GLITLR (good luck in the long run)

Loving the videos, exceptional discipline. I was just wondering how do you get to know what muck hands did villain have even that doesn't go to Show down.
Also at 1:06:10 you said most of his bluffs are going to give up, isnt he 3b 88+ and and then converting 88,99 into his bluffs once you check-call the flop?
