Rypac13 does an excercise in reading your opponent. A few $6.25 turbos are played with his hole cards blocked to focus solely on reading and outplaying your opponent.

Interesting...I think Moshman did something similar a while back.

Yes, he did. He's the one that let me use that hole card blocker (I gave him and the designer Dan credit in the opening of the video).
I'm working on getting this tool available for free use on our site for everybody.

I am still awaiting Collin's final go ahead on the tool use. It sounds like it's only a matter of time.

Greetings,
This video was particularily useful as I had just watched Primo's intermediate video 5 (1 of 2) where the ending dealt with flop textures. The end game analysis was pretty useful as well. I find I extract a lot of value if I make to this stage; I'm seeing a lot of opponents who foolishly fold WAY too many hands and then advertise the value of their hands when they do raise, telling you to get out unless you've got the goods. Your last opponent fit that profile perfectly.
Also, I liked your point of planning ahead for future streets. This is definately something that will help me. And the discussion of wet/dry flops and which ones to bet into (and what amounts) and which ones to check was very useful. And, I liked the analysis of how to handle aggressive players who often bet out indiscriminately at the flop, and when you can reraise for fold equity. You've been extremely helpful on many levels in aiding my overall improvement.
Thank you,
Jeffrey

Awesome video...thus a 5 Star rating.
Very useful, in-depth commentaries on many situations dealing with bluffing and following through on bluffs.
Should be "required viewing"!

nice!, you could also use the task manager to block a part of the screen, although with less functionality
