Agree definitely best play and explain on the site. No exaggeration to say I might cancel my elite if it didn’t have your videos anymore so I hope you get a new contract!

They make a great counterpoint to the more theory based videos, I often use them as a warm up

Really good video. Would love a similar video looking at bb vs bu 3 barrels so could look at wider ranges

Great stuff. I've got a lot out of your first two videos. Particularly liked how this one mixed theory and mental game concepts.

With regards to RNG i've been getting myself in such a muddle recently with EP/HJ cbetting vs bb with different sizings on high percentage cbet boards and I now see how important it is to simplify that

Hope that isn't your last video, always enjoy your content

Don't want to pile on too much but it's no exaggeration to say that you can find more educational, theory-sound content on YouTube for free and i assume a decent percentage of our subscription fee goes to pay for this. Can't you just give the money to the other content creators at NLHE like Luke Johnson or Tyler Forrester to make extra videos as i can't believe there is anyone getting anything out of this.

A few of the ideas have already been mentioned although not specific to 6 max. Some more mental game content or a video focused specifically on how to study would be good. I have just joined one of the new RIO study groups so could be relevant to a lot of people

For 6max specifically some more updates to the becoming a boss series would be much appreciated. I'd love a video on turn probe range and sizings bb vs bu flop missed cbet.

Fanatstic video as usual. You mentioned you would do another video in the same style as this for 6 max if people wanted it. Consider me wanting it!

I was also interested by this hand. I don't really understand your river line. Given what you said your hand is a bluff catcher so which hands are you expecting him to bluff on the river when you check? We expect him to fold all single pair hands on the turn and don't really expect him to turn any 2 pair hands into bluffs. I feel like bet small river or c/f river are better. Maybe c/c to a small bet thinking you can beat some value hands

Many thanks for your always great content!

3:16 I was intrigued by this hand. You say that you're not getting to river with much worse here but aren't there a lot of combos of KQo, K10o that you won't bet on the turn along with suited K's and Q's (K7s, K5s, K3s, K2s). Not saying these hands are better to bluff with but why do we choose the offsuit aces when isn't it better to unblock the ace? Also if i feel like we are bluffing all of those hands at 50 then we are going to be over bluffing?

Thanks again!

Many thanks for the reply. Yep figured that was the case. Was getting a bit coonfused as ive never examined this particular winrate in a downswing before

Hi Tyler
Love the video, just what i needed. I have a question about point 1 because i was a little confused by it. Over a largish downswing sample (80K hands) when i filter for didn't see flop I'm at -9.44bbs compared to -5.5bbs over my large sample. I can't see any immediate change in preflop stats between the two. But anyway you suggest your very slightly higher winrate in this downswing means you may have been a bit looser preflop.
What i'm trying to say is that is a large decrease in pre flop winrate (-5.5 to -9.44) likely down to tightening up preflop or loosening up?

I agree with your anlysis, in fact i think i only have 7 outs on the turn so it should definitely be a fold.

Yeah that was my plan for the river but i changed my mind after thinking about it. What do you expect to fold out on the river?I have very little air on the river so game theory wise i should be shoving but the fact is I think he almost always has a flush here which he has added into his c/c range. If he did somehow have a semi bluff i think he continues with it a high percentage of the time on the river. Maybe some small percentage of the time I fold out 78s. The fact i don't think i can bluff profitably here probably makes it even more of a fold on the turn.
