looks like a great series, I really enjoy non sweat session vids in general, as I feel analysing hands deeply away from the tables is a great way to improve your game. More please!

14:00 KJo hand where you shoved river when the diamond draw came in: Do you think the opponent only called because he had the Ace of diamonds in his hand so he could take away a lot of flushes out of your hand?

Several times you've said something like, "I don't even know what I'm going to do in this spot, so how can my opponents know?" I've heard almost these exact words from live fish many times. In fact, usually they have strong tendencies that they're unaware of. Now obviously I realize that there's a huge difference between Leatherass and a live fish -- you're a sophisticated player and you're going to be pretty well-balanced in most spots. But I do think this is a dangerous line of thinking to go down.

You make a good point here. Allow me to clarify what I meant. All of the plays I have in my arsenal have been well thought out in advance. They are all plays that I feel (or in many cases have proven) to show a profit. So when I say, "How can they know if I don't even know?" I am basically saying that I try and just randomly choose amongst the proven plays I have, how to attack a certain board, opponent etc. rather than having a set line.

Equally dangerous thinking in my opinion is to have a set way that you play value hands or bluffs etc. That is why I wanted to emphasize my way of thinking in that spot.

Thanks for your post!

Great vid- I think one of the biggest benefits I get is when you discuss what rivers you would continue your bluffs on and for what reasons, and what rivers you would give up on. In general, those are usually the toughest spots for me, and I would just like to respectfully request that you try to remember that. Any hand that ends before the river, it'd be great if you could discuss which cards you're going to double/triple and why, and which cards you won't. You do this alot of the time, but I want it always! Thanks for the vid :)

I wonder where side are you playing this hands? Do you use any kind of hud or you just play the cards and the opponent? How many tables? Cheers

on the JTo hand, what would you do if the river would complete your straight, but would also complete the flush?
