I'd be very careful about trying to make particular assertions by someone's play based on videos they put out for everyone to see.

I have no interest in discussing strategy with a protege'. Your job is to remain quiet and listen. I have a very systematic approach that I will share with the right candidate and I promise that I will turn you into a force of nature and show you elements of the game of poker that you never knew existed.

paranoid much?

Is there any purpose for which he's posting the vids? If it's for some kind of vid exchange/review then I'm thinkin his playstyle in the video must be legit...

If it's a reg you play alot with, not taking advantage of this would be crazy imo.

he's a 2+2 reg who offers coaching - I think his vids are as a type of advertising. His stats and play in the vids are consistent with what I have seen. I even appear in a couple of his tables, unfortunately I haven't seen the notes he has on me yet - but I've yet to watch all the vids.

I guess I'll examine his play from the almost 5k hands I have on him in PT, then use the videos to extend my notes.

if he talks through his hands and his thought process in the vids, then that would be a good thing to watch. what is he looking for when making his decisions, what holds more weight in his thought process/decision making
