Recorded and put this up tonight since the last one was a bit short (but it was Fish vs Gees!!!).

Could the 2 star person please at least PM or send an anonymous email to me with your specific thoughts on why you did not like the video?  I'd just like to hear the feedback so that I can possibly improve on future videos.  Thanks.

Hey Ryan,

at 11:58 you reshove QJo 9BB deep after his 3x. Knowing you have probably no fold equity at all, is this still a profitable shove? It looks a lot like he is trying to lure you into the pot/provoke a shove. I think he would openshove all hands that are weaker than QJ, so QJo might be in bad shape against his range imo, especially if you consider his overall passivity. You mention that his line is either a very weak or very strong hand but only the worst players will raise 3BB and fold to a 9BB shove and despite all his leaks he didn't strike me as that fishy...what do you think?

Thanks and greedz, Martin

p.s. good video

Why are you thinking that 2 star = "don't like"? :)
1 star = Poor
2 star = Okay
3 star = Good
4 star = Great
5 star = Awesome

It's not GREAT or AWESOME video (!!) and it's not poor, maybe 2 star (Okay) or 3 star (Good) = 2.5 star, because:
1) Very short, only 23 min (!!!), don't like this!
2) Nothing new (!), very simple video. At this site "million" VOD's like it.

I think if you do a short video, then it should be a non-standard, or should be some new ideas/concepts.

P.S. LOL, I wrote this post about 20 minutes, longer than it watched.

@ Artemov

if you scroll up you can read that this video basically comes together with the previous one. Together they are almost 40 minutes long.

When the site opens the authors have promised that every coach would do for 1 video a week, where is it? 4 * 4 = 16 [~ 4 week (month) * 4 authors (RyPac13, Skates, Croixdawg, xSCWx) = 16 VODs per month]

Now 7 (!) Coach and only 13 January VOD's (+50% short-video) ,11-December, 13-November. Don't like that. :)

@ Looser Vogel
O'k, than it's 5-star video... should I put 2-star at this vid and 3-star at previus? ;)

Yeah, Artemov is right, there should be more vids.

>>>>> 20 at least......

When the site opened it was just Croixdawg, xSCWx, Skates and myself.

Now we have Hokie, Primo, Fydor, Cog as well as numerous guest videos.

The video length we did say from the start would be 20-40 minutes.  It's been our experience that many people watch 15-30 minutes in one sitting. 

Overall there are probably over 200 videos on this site now strictly for heads up sngs.  That's probably near or over 100 hours.

Adding new videos every month isn't easy.  There's a reason why every other training site only has 0-1 husng trainer, and perhaps a quarter of them are even legitimate.

That being said, there's a few trainers that are behind a few videos.  Ideally, you'll see about 3 videos from xSCWx, Skates, myself and Croix in a month, four from Cog, two from Fydor and Hokie and probably 2 or 3 from Primo for the next month or two.

But it's a community and the most important concern is making you a better husng player.  If a video doesn't go up on back to back days or there's a two day break, just watch a video you haven't gotten to yet.  Or play some games and post some hands in the hand review forum.  Post some video questions in the video discussion forum.  Post some videos you'd like to see in the feedback forum.

Since the most important concern is making me a better husng player, please answer my question about the QJo hand ;-)

>If a video doesn't go up on back to back days or there's a two day break, just watch a video you haven't gotten to yet
I watched 95% of all VOD's at this site (only didn't watch 5 Cog Dissonance, because i'm playing at limp-style too and nothing new in his vid + 5 old archive PrimordialAA video, because don't like leakfinder-vids). :)

>post some hands in the hand review forum
I don't know how i can discuss non-standard hands when i don't know the timing all streets (and timing all hands before), dynamics, psychologic opponent, what he thinks about our psychologic, all previous hands , prehistory another matches and million other nuance... IMHO :)

Makes sense Art.  If you can find concepts to work on or ask about, feel free.

But to your original point, I'll talk to xSCWx about posting more videos this month.  We have a few details to hammer out, but I think we can up the video volume and see how everybody responds in February.

Worst case, it's one month with a ton of extra videos.  Hell, we launched just under a year ago, customer appreciation, etc.

Didn't forget about your question Martin.  I had to run out so I did not have time to look back and share my thoughts on that hand.  Now I have so:

In general here, players come in two forms:  They either only raise (instead of shoving) strong hands, or they raise a super wide range of hands that include some fold equity.  I see both versions of player all the time in the $115s.  The problem is, which version is this guy?  Since it's not easy information to have and I did not have the information at the time, I have to conclude that it's about as likely that he's just doing this with strong hands as he is with hands that he might fold (or very weak hands he can call).

It's a much easier decision for me 9bb deep, even if on average I have an ounce of fold equity vs him, my shove is going to be the best play.  Now, if we're 15bb-20bb deep, it becomes a much tougher decision to make in my mind and would probably require some math to be anywhere near certain that I made the correct play.

On a somewhat related note, if he had just shoved I would have called of course.

I know he had AK this time, but for every AK I see, I'll see Q8s raise/call here, or I'll see a random hand raise/fold.  There doesn't have to be much fold equity, or too many weak hands in his range 9bb deep for me to shove the QJo over his open.  But if you delete his username, and I'm in a similar spot (which I am quite a bit), on average there's still some fold equity and plenty of weaker hands that raise/call here.

I find it more common that people limp the premiums here, but 3x isn't rare for them to do with AK type hands here either.  They also sometimes raise 4-5bbs, which is even sillier.
