This week, Andrew Brokos wraps up his WCOOP series, MJ23STYLEz makes his TPE debut, and Mark Herm resurfaces with an intriguing new episode of the Chirp Herm show called “Orgasmic Meditation.” I don’t know about you, but I can’t wait to dig in. No pun intended.

Cory “MJ23STYLEz” Waaland Premiere Video – Maximus Main Event Win Early Stages HH Review
New TPE Pro Cory Waaland debuted this week with the series I have been anticipating for a while now. He is one of the guys that have been crushing the Merge network where I play, so he is a natural fit as an instructor for guys like me. He brings his unorthodox live game to the virtual felt and proves that watching poker videos can be entertaining as well as educational.

Andrew is back to wrap up his WCOOP Heads Up series. It took a while, but finally one of his poor pitiful opponents finally got the best of him. Heads up is probably the best example of poker in its purest form, but even still there is a ton of luck involved.

After a long hiatus, Mark Herm is back with a new episode of the Chirp Herm show and oh what an episode it is. He talks about his recent adventures participating in something called “Orgasmic Meditation.” I don’t know WTF that is, but it sounds like it beats the hell out of what I usually do on a typical week night.

Matthew reminds us of the importance of ICM. Based on his tone, the fact that some players ignore this seems to be a pet peeve of his. Funny, this is my favorite type of player to have at the final table on the rare occasion I get there.
