Danny returns this week with a review of his 320 KO run. In part 1, he plays a tight solid game but unfortunately gets down to 6 bigs. He stays patient and it pays off towards the end of the video when he gets 2 much needed doubles. In part 2, he gets a double with AA, another one against AA, and finally has a playable stack which he proceeds to massively run up by the end of the video.
Arvydas “Merfinis” Merfeldas EPT Satellite Hand History Review
Merfinis continues his review of an EPT satellite. In part 2, he starts with a short stack, gets up to 40bbs after getting a double with AK, and then loses it with a failed river call with 9 high. He manages to grind it back up and finds KK toward the end to rebuild his stack. In part 3, he continues taking thin spots and his constant aggression allows him to keep building. By the end of the video he has 80bbs.
Leading The Turn by Matthew Hunt

Matthew Hunt brings us a Stop & Go hand where he plays KQo from the BTN. He defends facing an open from middle position, check calls a flop bet with the second nut flush draw, and decides to lead the turn when he picks up an open ended straight draw as well.

In this article, Jamie Kerstetter talks about how open raise sizing standards have changed over the years. She mentions that many players are even starting to eschew the idea of a standard size all together and make raise sizes based on table dynamics instead.
