Loved the coinpoker commentary! Thought you did great with sharing your experience and analysis, really insightful. Hope to see more in the future!

Great video Max! I love the format of thinking through the hands and approximating the thresholds before getting into the solver - great for the video and also something I'm going to take away for my own study. Thanks!

Great video Pete as always. Appreciate you sharing your learnings and your honesty. Laughed out loud at the 'I have a King and I'm mad an ace came so I pot twice' bit!!

Really useful RunItTw1ce, thanks for sharing. I really like including the turn play as Eg one thing I see a lot are players that can play flop reasonably and then totally shut down on turn without a strong hand. I like having 3 bet pots on there too. Will definitely be incorporating these when I play tomorrow. I also want to do some work on colour coding various ranges to make it easier to zero in.

That was definitely interesting - I think to some extent it comes down to personality type also and just generally what works best for you. Eg it's probably a big leak but I find on regular tables I end up really overthinking and often over-adjusting. I'll see one showdown and then really go too far extrapolating from that to the detriment of my game. Or just level myself in a spot thinking about history of the table and would this player really do this after x hand etc. So I just don't enjoy it as much. I find playing zoom is better for my mental game as well because I just in general don't take things as personal as I do when I'm sat playing with the same players every hand! Having said this I'll definitely put some thought into Tyler's advice here.

66 - yes I mainly fold here but do mix depending on the player.

The colour coding was a big eye opener for me and so obvious and a bit embarassing to have it pointed out! I started yesterday updating all my tags in a a very similar way to your scheme above. So much more useful and I'm already taking advantage of it. I think in the past I've made the mistake of over-adjusting to hud stats in general, so for a long time have really just been focussing on trying to play a standard type game, but yes crazy really to not use the stats when I have them there to use to make decisions and to make money. I do think my work on some of the more fundamental stuff actually helps in adjusting to HUD stats as it gives me a place to adjust from, so with that knowledge I wouldn't expect I''d end up over-adjusting this time like I have in the past.

My HUD has the same as yours has the standard Vpip / PFR / 3bet / F3B as well as CB, fold to cbet, BB fold to SB open and BB fold to LP steal. I find those last two really useful. I do think you can probably extrapolate a lot of other stats from the main ones, so it's a balancing act between finding what's useful and what is information overload. It's funny about the f3b mistake I made as I've done this before but because I used to show my own stats as well I quickly noticed I was using the wrong f23b. Since I changed computers I also stopped showing my own HUD and obviously haven't noticed this time I was using the wrong stat - big thanks to Williemarto for pointing that out! Sometimes it is helpul having your own stats on display!

I've put in place already your tagging system - so much more helpful. A lot of information that I wasn't taking advantage of and using in my decision making.

Hi Tyler - thanks so much for the review! Really helpful and lots for me to think about and work on.

Thanks for the comment - I just checked and it is indeed the 'fold to 3b' stat as opposed to 'fold to 3b after raise'. I agree the second gives greater insight snd is more useful so have swapped it for this one - thanks for the heads up!

Really nice thread, thank you for sharing!

Congratulations on your Son's birth!

Great video, Pete. I appreciate the more indepth range analysis and also good to pick some of those more troublesome nodes that have often had less attention in videos. The way you explain how ranges interact is really clear and understandable.

Really great video, you have a really relaxing manner and way of explaining which comes across clear. I like also how in certain spots you're honest about not being exactly sure of the correct play etc.

He mentions starscaption early on in the vid

This is a fantastic video. Thanks Teuness
You are one of my favourite coaches and it's so good to hear a different side of things and how you approach this massively valuable part of the game. Thanks for sharing.

Great video and do enjoy this format a lot. As you say there are plenty of live play vids on RIO which is great but it's good to see a focus on one spot and drilling it in GTO+ while you talk through some of the potential reasoning behind decisions is really useful.

Also really enjoy seeing GTO+ put to use, I use it myself and there's not a lot of videos out there on it even though it's a fantastic tool especially with the pricing. Would be good to see the set up of the sim as well I would say, not necessarily to go into loads of depth on sizings and stuff but just a quick view as I often struggle here and end up running a whole subset of flops before finding out I missed something key in the sim that would have been good to include!

Fantastic video. Very useful and interesting and something not often addressed. I like the recognition of differing career paths. I often think there is a vast market of serious recreational players out there that aren't really catered to or respected that much. Often the term recreational is used as a synonym for 'fish' which often isn't the case. I think there's a whole chunk of players out there that play recreationally and their approach is to carve out a decent 2nd income.

Lots of great advice in this video and has really made me look at my poker goals in a new light. Thanks!

Great video, thanks Ben.
Looking forward to part 2.

Interesting piece of software, appreciate the walk-through

Great video, very clear thought process and explanation. Love the hand review videos that you've done. Also appreciate your honesty and reflecting on ingame thoughts, very helpful.

Fantastic video, really enjoyed this.

Great video.

'Ah, a mongolian player, I'll play, for the experience'

'Fuck you'

'Oh,.......k'

Perfection!

This is a fantastic blog, really appreciate the thought and care that's gone into it Patrick. So much useful stuff in here.

Thanks Henry, great video as always. In my opinion two tables of zoom is the perfect pace for a live play vid, plenty of spots with enough time to follow the action.

Great video, thanks Henry. Agree, i like the mix of more detailed post play vids with some live play ones too.

Thanks for the video, very thorough and useful
