As always, very good video. Should definitely help my game because the engame is my weak point..I've never really studied nash I just kind of done what I thought was right so it shows me that I really need to learn nash a lot better. Preflop I definitely am inconsistent a lot which needs to be fixed..when Hokie done a video for me he said the exact same thing...can't wait to read the full review tomorrow when I'm not hungover lol..hopefully the members can also learn from my mistakes :)

Mers: At 19:50 you limp K2s for 12BBs effective against JudgerGoD (the aggro guy). Why do this as opposed to just jamming? K2s is in the sklansky-chubukov ranges for up to 14BBs, so it's definitely +EV to shove and this seems like a much easier and perhaps more +EV way to play the hand against such an aggressive opponent. This is especially true given that you seem to think that min-raising is bad because the villain will shove often and that limping is meh because so many hands have great equity against us.
Enjoying the videos a lot. And, seeing all the detail in your leakfinder review makes me want one! p
