I plan to cover the FT as well. What kind of formats would you prefer there? I have a lot of hands from a certain game, so i think i will focus on 1 or 2 games in one video, and therefore not go with a chronolocigal order overall...I will review all the interesting hands from stud, then all the interesting hands from razz and so on...
Or would you guys prefer the old, traditional format, where i skip from game to game?
I like any kind of switching between hands but sometimes it's a bit difficult to follow when not all hole cards/board/actions are written on screen. You probably watched it all and remember exactly who raised who called, what was a board, etc. But sometimes it's hard to follow/remember when you jump from one action point to another for understand all actions.
About minute 12, 4432 is more playable than AQ85. AQ85 plays better allin preflop against whatever range, so the software may say it is better. However, 4432 makes much better lows, so is easier to play. It also makes more strong hands, like a lot more wheels. 4432 also goes up in value if a couple of players have folded in front, which makes aces more live..In 08/ PLO8, you usually play AA/A2/A3/23/A4 with good other cards/suits for the weaker pairs, and good all high card hands. 8 is a bad card. 4432 has a decent low and backup, and is connected with all the cards working together.
If you look at equities allin preflop, A2o is better than JTs, but no one would say A2o is the better hand to open. AQ85 issimilar to A2 in holdem and not a good hand.
This is an example of a problem I have seen with people blindly taking results from computer programs as the absolute truth. When the program disagrees with a human expert like Hennigan, we should consider the possibility it is the program that is wrong. I see the same thing where people take the results from GTO and ICM software as gospel.
Agree with your comment regarding these O8 hand rankings. Somewhat agree about ICM. (it's only a model and has it's flaws and can't account for everything)
GTO software is very different tho, it's results are achieved in a different way and can be 100% trusted within the parameters set.
Dan Deppen discusses this concept in detail in his O8 book when talking about the low wheel card speculative hands. Preflop equities do not pefectly correlate to postlfop playability or equity realizability. However PPT has nothing to do with GTO like you imply. It simply spits out the preflop rankings or equities, it is up to the user to interpret the data and draw his own conclusions.
I don't think it has anything to do with GTO. I think the software ranks the hands based equity allin preflop against a random hand. A5 is great against a random hand, but not against people playing A2, A3, A4, and 23. It also has terrible playability.

It will be still more profitable to open AQ85ss from the cutoff than 2344ss from the hijack, that was my point...
