your comments make sense; i'm following the reasoning behind the overall decision-making process. thanks for your input, Ryan.

can you explain the hand at 32:04 a bit more? facing a x from SB, it seems like we want to generate fold equity/protect our marginal showdown value with a bet (somewhere between 1/4-1/2), expecting to check most turns and evaluate rivers. Is it just that 47o with no spade is so far down in our value range that we turn this into a borderline fold? if they had gone anywhere between 1/4/ and 40%, would we be folding flop (following that reasoning)? It doesn't seem to me that we would fold flop, which leaves me a bit confused why we x back given so many bad turns to protect, making it hard to play and hard to realize the equity of the hand.
