It won’t let me rate videos anymore. Loved this series Marc, I am a big fan of HH reviews. I think you learn the most about yourself and others by doing them, but I will never complain about a live sweat. Keep up the good work!

Awesome video and series, thanks. Loving TPE!

tytyty, I like HH reviews too but i do think live sweats allow the community to understand what the pro’s are thinking about on the fly. Both methods are very useful, so i think i do need to do my first live sweat. Thanks for the compliments my man!

Good to hear, I am always learning myself and will continue to watch every series that TPE offers in order to hit maximum potential. GL to you

“Nice sizing. Die.”

Great video mate.

6:00 mark… The 67dd hand… Is that not just a clear call? I know you talked a lot about why you clicked back. With his c/r on flop, c/c turn, doesn’t that put him on exactly an 8 or air?? Then when he bets the river you gotta think he can’t have an 8 any more, since he’s gonna wanna just show it down, (pretty thin value, if there’s any there at all) so why are we risking more chips against hands that have us beat and only getting bluffs to fold? Cheers man! Great vid again!

Great set of vids, Marc. Thank you.
At the beginning of video #1 you started to go over your HUD stats, but then said that you would get to them later. I dont believe you ever covered them, so can you list them out here? Im looking to improve my HUD usage and proficiency.

5k tilting, tyty… next time

LOLOLOL, i should have told him to sign up at TPE

Should check out the last podcast as this hand is discussed for a good 20 min… I’m turning my hand into a bluff as I do think he folds better a decent % of the time. I would never be raising for value here and 95% of the time i would just elect to call. However, this was a player dependent move against a villain i believe would/could fold better.

Gonna write up a little blog soon on my HUD numbers. Ill go through different stats and why i think they are important. Give me a week

Sweet, thanks.

Decided to spend today working on the most neglected part of my game (studying). Watched this whole series and it really motivated me to watch more videos. Super entertaining and love the breakdown of all the different spots. Can’t wait for the live sweat to hear you really go off on someone 🙂 .

Dude you have come a long way in these things. Love the vids. And you always have something useful to say in the commentary like avoiding tubos if the var is getting to you. I tell ppl that all the time but its good to hear a pro confirm it. You’re 1 of my favs on here now, keep churning them out!!
marc alioto
thanks my dude, much appreciated

Had to find a healthy balance of MTTs that fit my personality. Mentally needed to take the low variance route and it has worked wonders.
Thanks for the kind words my man

Awesome series! Probably one of my favorites so far. Glad to see you’re thinking out of the box and trying new things. Seeing as this was made just under a year ago I can imagine you’ve been having great success. Keep up the good work!

Really enjoyed it Marc, watched straight through.

That aaaaaaaaa guy with terrible skills but great luck… I seem to run into versions of him on most of my pokerstars tables. I have managed to improve my mental game where I do not tilt to bad beats so much anymore, but the one thing that still tilts me is when a dolt donkey fish gets constant luck.

I had SO much fun watching this! Many thanks from Swedish maniac
