    Oh and Casey – can you turn on “Display bet amounts” for the pokerstars tables. It helps instead of waiting for you to scroll over the chip stack to see how much they raised or bet. Its under options in the pokerstars lobby. Thanks 🙂

    Thanks for the video.

    We played heads up on April 28 in the Full Tilt $75 at 1600EST. You beat me on a flush draw that caught a straight vs my Ace. Was wondering if you were putting that video up?

    You played well and wanted understand some of your moves, etc.

    Thanks,

    thanks casey for posting this i’ve been waiting for this shit for a while it’s crazy how you play so differently early but, i understand how it is early you know. i respect that you are here for us and thank you for letting is know that. i am not afraid, i will contact you in the future about some of my hand histories. also, i would like a vid on the FTP dub deuce if you wouldn’t mind. i know this should have been an email but oh well, it is what it is.

    Great Video. I like your tight play in the early stages. You’re right you’ll get paid with premiums and its hard to play post flop with guys who play ATC.

    really insightful video bigdog!! thanks very much.

    How long until you switch gear? When the antes come in? Or when the bubble is closing in?

    Cheers, and keep up the great work on the site.

    I agree with everyone else on here – great video bigdog. On a side note, I remember playing with you on Absolute a few years back – you’ve definitely come a long way. I think you were one of the reasons I stopped playing on that site LoL. Keep the videos coming.

    Nice video- I like what you said around the 9 minute mark about players who don’t know u thinking u r playing ABC poker and pretty tight, and then you can exploit that once the antes kick and and even further as bubble approaches etc etc

    This was eye opening. I’ve always thought the big successful pros such as yourself were very aggressive. Not so. Great video. Also, awesome job in the tourneys last night. I was sweating you in the Sunday Million and the 162(think you came in 7th?) and a couple on FTP that you cashed. You are the reason that I joined this site. Stalker alert! lol j/k. Continued success my man.

    Bigdog, new here. This is exactly what I wanted to see! Watched some of your middle stage videos but early answers alot of questions. Thanks

    This is the second time I hear a pro be worried about the video being boring. We are not here to be entertained, we are here to learn. Please do not omit information or play multiple table just to “not be boring”. I appreciate the “boring” videos more that the rest.
