First thanks for the video. Most stuff pretty basic but good reinforcement. I liked when you checked your AK on an A77 and your reasoning for it, even tho it turned out unfortunately at the end. At 28:40 you were mentioning something about understand the meaning of betting in the field twice, and kinda drifted off. I was wondering if you could expand on that please. (what does it mean if someone OOP bets, I cold call, and then he bets on the turn again?) At 38:26 I would like to hear more detailed explanation of why is it a good c-bet board with 3s3h2h on the board (you had 8cKc). I would think its a bad c-bet board because flush draw could call, straight draw could call, overpair could call, even overcards might call, so IMO its a bad c-bet board unless for value, since there is very little fold equity there it seems. I would like to hear your comments on my thoughts.

In addition to the expected very strong play, we also get a nice lesson in taking losses in stride, including one perfectly-played hand that was rivered and one unfortunate group of community cards that was impossible to get away from.

I enjoyed this video as I watched your second first this reinforced things I learned in the first one. I really never thought of using hand histories during play to help analyse play. Poker Tracker use at the end was very enlightening also, I can really see now how you can use it to improve your game.

Like - Aggressive playing with small pairs, 3-betting 9s, 3-betting QKo in blinds, rarely limping, betting a lot post flop until meeting resistance. - Showed the importance of playing with proper bankroll with the big pot AK hand. -Overall the video showed real everyday grinding and not just showing playing AA or KK.
