Hey Nick. Really good content, in my view. Not many would be able to produce such videos, not focusing in the technical aspects but in broader subjects, that goes beyond poker and can really summarize certain patterns and behaviours that we may have or see around. Good point u made about people who are stuck in the same games forever and not realizing what is the root cause of the problem. I also feel that these people with a different approach, in 3 months time, would be able to reach a never before achieved level. You also talk in a way that is much more precise and detailed than what we listen everyday, and this by itself is something that pushes feels good to my brain.

thanks

Hey James, thanks again for this video. Clear reasoning, as usual. Definitely ur videos are one of my favorites and its great to have my omaha game reviewed by you.

Just to give a feedback to you and others who may watch:

• The multitabling could be blamed for some spots, but others, I just dindt have the right thing going on in my mind at that point. After the video my internal language used for omaha got better. I feel like Im going to keep playing lots of tables and I think its manageable, but with stronger fundamentals.

• The sizing preflop, I was not aware of the nescessity of changing too much. It felt it was working well by miniraising lately. But I can definitely see the need for changing it acording to stakcs and big blinds tendencies.

• Post flop sizing looked indeed too small in some cbeting spots, can see and agree w/ the point u made about how its not that great for ur cbetting range the smaller sizing.

• My current 3 betting strategy was mostly using pot to commit and didnt have many suited rundown combos. Its a heritage from Phill's videos, I think. The perception he gave me at that time was not to 3bet(only to commit a certain hand vs a weaker range, when shorter) after the rebuy period was gone. When u advised 3betting that 9864 double suited, SB v BTNs raise, I then realized it should be good since it has a lot of equity against anything he shows with, along with the fold eq. I may need to add some 3bets as well.

• Some of the hands in the post flop, I checked and called with hands I should have bet for protection and because they are too weak to check-call. I can see now how it works better for those spots.

Thanks.

ty for the insights James. made me feel kinda proud of being a poker player, since we can get to - and also are forced to - discover layers of deepness in ourselves, in relationships, in others, that we would have a hard time discovering those things in most of other activities available for working or with the lifestyles that people normally have.

Hi Stevie, thanks for the video. The 3 hands you showed us are close spots and big plays. When facing those decisions, do you consider how soft/tough is the table? Probably the high roller hand takes place in a tough table, the TT is in a softer and 45s It could either side. Do u think this need to be considered a lot before going for these type of plays? For example if you bust with 45s you could have missed clear spots later on. I know it sound a little like an old speech but I would like to know what u think about this matter. ty
