Bigdogpckt5s Sunday Million Back to Back Win Hand History Review.
Big Dog continues his Sunday Million review, he covers some early mid and late stage strategy as well as talking about the importance of stack preservation and making moves. In typical Bigdog fashion his stack yoyos between huge and shallow throughout the entire series. Part 5 finishes up at the final 2 tables.
Mini FTOPS Team Hand History Review with Daryl Jace and Chris Moon
Two of my favourite pros combine for this one, Daryl Jace teams up with Chris Moon to look at his deep run in a multi entry mini FTOPS. There is a heap of ridiculously in depth discussion in every part of the series including which hands to 3bet and how we want to turn the best hand we don’t want to flat into a bluff, how to maximise value with differing SPR’s, optimal bet sizing for different parts of someone’s range and how to adjust this for an entire range. They make a really cool point how SPR is always underestimated in multi way pots and the weakening effect this has on positional advantage. They also talk about adjustments to make against regs and as expected there is plenty of talk of exploiting ranges and adjusting for game flow. Definitely worth a watch!
