Hey guys. This week David “betudontbet” Emmons continues his live sweat series, and also joins the boys for a chat in the TPE live podcast. For those that are interested in some lower stakes action, Cougars4444 is back for a low stakes live sweat on Lock.

Dave “betudontbet” Emmons Premiere Series Live Sweat
Part 3Part 2 continues the Saturday grind with 6 tables on the go at the moment. I wouldn’t try this at home, but in the first part of the video, Dave shows us how to use a nash push-fold calculator whilst 6 tabling! It would definitely be useful to incorporate some nash theory into your review sessions though, especially if you play a lot of turbos. It is also pretty impressive to watch an MTT sicko at work – there is a hand where he has AQ on a dry paired board and he just casually mentions “oh we are going to barrel off” like it’s nothing! So if you need some help with your aggression it might be worth checking this out too.
In part 3 he busts a couple of tables early but has a couple of other ones on the go that he starts recording including a $215 40k gtd on party and the hot 75 turbo on stars. His attitude to losing a pot is amazing though, it is just like water off a ducks back, which is the mindset we should all try and emulate. There is also some good discussion about what sort of range we should be shoving with.
Cougars4444 $1 Rebuy Frenzy Win and More Micros
Cougars4444 brings us a low stakes live sweat, something a lot of TPE has been asking for. This time he starts with a $11 2.5k gtd, a $5 1k gtd, a $3r 5k gtd, and a $3 750 gtds. There is some nice discussion about early stages rebuy strategy. It is early stages but there is still a bit going on because there is a turbo tourney on the go too. In the middle of the video he decides to bust most of his tourneys, but that’s when he loads up the Dollar frenzy turbo which he ends up taking down.

This week in the forums, “duggs” has been extremely active and has posted some excellent hands. Two of his threads have generated some great discussion, so check them out

During the week, “guitey” played the iPops main event – out of a field of 2400, play has been paused at 27, with the fish of the tourney being a live event in Barcelona. “guitey” is sitting 7th in chips and looking for a 100k score, good luck! TPE were all over the lock final tables this week. “Insidiously”, the big dog, and “hurricanejeff” were all at the Lock High roller final table, an awesome achievement. We also had a dual final table with Killingbird and Insidiously both final tabling the $20r 10k guaranteed! KB also final tabled a $60 turbo too!
For people outside the US, SCOOP is in full swing, and new pro “betudontbet” managed to finish third in Event 9-H – a $2k Holdem super knockout for nearly 60k! What an absolute beast and a great advertisement for TPE.
See you at the tables!
