If you go into ‘Poker Settings’ on merge you can allow a Second Click All In option so you don’t misclick shove.

Very nice series and in-depth hand-analysis. Real like the dynamic of you two.
Also glad to see my play is not far behind KBs.
About the agression factor stat. I like it very much, because when multi-tabling MTTs it gives me a quick insight if flating in the BB or button to a EP raise with a speculative hand is a good idea. I tend to call more often when he has high AF, combined with high cbet percentages, because I know he’ll pay me well if I hit.
Keep it up guys.

At 53.05, I guess Killingbird is almost 3x ing with 88 because he does not want any callers. Min raising only encourages guys to call. Mark said that he very often calls min raises from the big blind with marginal hands. I reckon Killingbird does not want to get called and see overcards on the flop. I think he wants to pick up the blinds and move on. I would hope that I would do the same thing in his position. There might be a pattern there in Killingbird’s raises as he might be raising more with medium pairs than other hands like AQ.

this argument can go both ways. If someone is flatting a ton of hands and folding to a cbet over 50% of the time, we obv want to encourage them to flat out of the BB.

Hmmm, you gotta good point. I just feel we can see how agg player is just by looking at his VPIP, and RFI’s from Late pos. Idk, i may put it back on

Marc using the whole “playing too many tables” excuse is just allowing KB to be dishonest with himself. He clearly has huge leaks. He’s not 2/3 potting it with the set of 9s bc he’s just “clicking buttons” while multi-tabling. He’s taking the novice approach of being scared of drawy boards. And it’s not that he doesn’t notice the loose-passive fish limping a lot, he is just too passive and doesn’t recognize good iso spots. Same thing with the 88 hand. He plays scared and I think it’s going to be much more beneficial to KB and the viewers if Marc is more honest with him and they stop joking about it and making multi tabling excuses.

the humor is Marcs way of dealing with it, but I assure you I/we take it very seriously. Marc plugged a bunch of leak for me in this process and he continues to rip on me when I do dumb shit.
Its worth mentioning that Marc and I review a TON of hands with each other. So he obviously has a subtle way of breaking my balls…but the balls are being broken regardless.
Living and learning.
