Are these monker solver pre flop ranges for these positions or did you devise them yourself?
I was wondering why K6 seems to be a peel v a 3bet but K7 a fold from buttons perspective?

Also interesting that the low suited connectors are never 3bet at all, do you do this in practice or mix in the occasional 3bet with say 56s.

Really enjoyed the content, thanks.

this must be a troll , v good

Nice to see some PM content on here, enjoy your live plays.

Thoughts on the recent action loss (last few days) at PokerMaster? Most of the clubs seem to have folded almost overnight, I wonder if you have heard anything regarding the future of the app.

Jeff_ I'm not sure I agree. I think its important we constructively analyse content on here, and give feedback where appropriate. This clearly needs to be done without malice, but its with the aim of improving the site and(or) content on here. Agree it might make sense to have a thread dedicated to this, but I was simply stating there are other examples of the point Demondoink was making on this site, even though there is also good value to be had.

Demondoink Think you make a fair point about the site generally.

For example, Checkraiser is an elite coach for HU, which given he hasnt beat 1k+ over any sample (last time I checked) is confusing to me. Its often difficult to persuade players who crush a stake to make high level videos which may take a few hours to make, for less than their hourly at their regular games (which I think should be addressed first, as increasing the $ paid per video to coaches would attract more top players to elite coaching here.) When you factor in that they have to give away EV by doing these on top of this, its even more unattractive for them.

Side point, I think Paul articulates himself better than most of the 500z coaches you listed above, even if he is rusty at the moment.

I think its accepted that RIO is still a thought leader in the training site world, and as far as I'm aware, the best site out there. Elite level content that is of good value to winning 500z+ regs is for sure harder and harder to come by, but for $100 a month, imo you are still getting value, esp if you consider the individual coaching hourly for most coaches at that level.

you remind me quite a lot of linus nuno. I can see that you take inspiration from him

Great video. More like this please :D

Demondoink Seems like constructive comments from you, but I've played nearly 30k hands vs this villain, and understand the HU meta game well. You always seem to initiate good discussion on here, but I think you are making a fair few assumptions in this one without knowing the players, meta, range construction etc.

My take aways:

1) There will be multiple sizes in this spot from villain.
2) Pop def doesnt raise enough vs all size cbets in 3bps
3) You dont get to play nose bleeds (this villain does) by just blindly cbetting range for 1/4p vs a recognised reg.

I think you underestimate villain here substantially. Without talking through his likely strategy, there is 0% chance he is betting range for 1/4p. HU differs to 6m in numerous ways, but in 3bps most elite players (and he is one) will have numerous sizes on different textures, depending on board, splitting range a lot. Also ranges are substantially wider in 3bp scenarios (as in almost all scenarios) and so 3betting off suit BW stuff is completely standard.

Really great. Thanks Richard.

Hi. You called me a weak reg in chat yesterday and i'm new to zoom and it made me feel a bit bad about my game. I would appreciate it if you didn't do this in future.

Yeah I play you both regularly and you and kala are clearly a very different calibre of player. if he isn’t even close to one of the best then you must be conceding that you are one of the weakest . You quit him at every opportunity

Just realised the opponent who 3bet you is a weaker player. For your answer could you assume btn is a reg please.

3.38 Would you consider 4betting K2s here or like to choose other hands? How do you construct your 4 betting range here in terms of hand choice and frequency, Do you use rng?

Thanks!

really good quality video as per. I noticed you hadn't uploaded for 6 weeks before this, will you be uploading more frequently in future?

thanks!

Hey Mark, in this video and a lot of your videos you mention the WWSF % stat. Can you (or anyone) explain the significance of the WWSF stat more for me please? If a player has a high % does this automatically mean he's very aggressive?

Thanks, enjoyed the video

Hi EluSiVeMax, great video as always! Quick question, at 7:52 i noticed some gym equipment behind you, would you say working out is an important routine to get into when playing poker professionally, as it relieves stress, allows clarity of mind and in general allows you to think more positively? I find that my win rate often increase by a BB or so when I am in a good gym routine, but maybe this is just a coincidence?

'putting us in a difficult spot' has absolutely no relevance on gto or a pio output, christ this site is going downhill

roughly @5mins. AQdd hand, please discuss turn sizing. When barrelling turn i assume our value range is KQ/AK+? so should we not size up? Or is the regular sizing more because his range is pretty inelastic between mid pocket pairs which fold turn a lot or Kx/flopped or turned boats. Or do you just think sizing up with KQ/AK you end up running into the best of it far too often?

I've noticed that I never hear you taking a drink in your coaching videos. Don't you think it's important to stay hydrated in order to play our A game? I always used to think that being thirsty made me play far too aggressively. Now I drink more water I have a more balanced approach. Likewise, if i decide I want to play passively I really load up on fluids.

Thanks.

Really great video., nice to see someone thinking outside the box with regards to pio review. Would love to see more videos lie this one.

very good video , 39 mins - table 2 vs muumi , you say you dont like your size as a bluff because an ace bets bigger. i assume you pick up a decent amount of 8x here k8,q8,j8, do these hands just check back? or are you suggesting having a large size for straights then a size smaller than half pot for 8x? thanks

Thanks for the video. What was your win rate like over your 20k sample?

This video was already posted on 29th August

great content as always kev! voice sounding particularly sexy too :D

tragic

good video , an idea for a future video under the same format could be on which rivers multiple size strategies should be used? and which hand types you would want to put in each sizing. allowing rivers for 75 % , 130% & a shove, or soemthing along those lines

Really good thorough video, thanks. Would like to see a similar video series.
At 34:33, with the K9dd on the button, what do you think about limping the button? Plays really well postflop- 3way or HU. A bit of a disaster to jam and get called by the big blind. And even min raise calling the SB doesn't feel great given the SB is a weaker player.

v good concept looking forward to future videos

Good video. At 7min30s, you fold 44 SB vs button, 150bb deep. Is this just down to the players you are facing in this situation, or is 44 not a profitable flat/3bet? also, what do you think about 55/66? Thanks
