    Not sure if you're really in the mood to answer any questions given recent events etc but I'll give it a go.

    We peel 65s (or 76s) from the SB vs the BTN because you say it's such a great hand to peel and you don't understand why people would ever 3-bet it. Do you mean its only good to peel if the btn/bb is a weaker reg or would this also be your standard against tougher/more aggressive regs?

    3bet 56s is non optimal but 56s and Axs vs a 5bet call range have the same equity no ?

    Hey Niman, The K9hh at the end of the video (54' or so) : you 3-bet it against a button open. Why not just flat it ?

    Yes but with Axs you've got a blocker which has a pretty significant effect in terms of cutting down on villains value hand combo's. Also, if you're jamming 56s than theoretically you should be jamming every better hand than 56s aswell (which is your entire range) so that's probably not optimal and just a bit spewy. (I don't think it can be that terrible though)

    Axs against TT+, AK has about 1.7% more equity than 56s (it doesn't sound much, but it adds up in the long run). Shoving 56s is not horrible IF (and Niman doesn't do it as it seems) he's 4-betting very light and the foldequity combined with the potequity makes it +EV (and very high variance). As for 3-betting K9s - I watched a few older videos and the reason for 3-betting is that K9s is that it's a little bit to weak to call, but too good to fold. So you take this hand and have a good 3-Bet bluff.

    AdJh on QsTc7c. When you barrel here you put villain on Tx? I figured that you were making this assumption since QJ is less likely because our blockers. My read would be that he is dumping all Tx hands besides T9, JT. Of course he could have open enders, just seemed very thin to fire the turn on this texture. Is this a spot where if we bet the flop and turn bricks we should always bet the turn HU given our equity, since a cbet/GU turn seems very weak as well? I noticed you were 3betting offsuit hands like J9o from the blinds top of folding range type cards. Do you stop betting a polarized range after a late position opener flats or how under what dynamic do you depolarize your 3bet range?

    16:10 table 2, you 3-bet OOP, and c-bet 9 when pot is 13. Don't you think 2/3 pot is a little big for a 3-bet pot on a relative dry board like this? And also, why do you 2.8x every position? Just a funny thing or do you really have a reason behind it? Solid vid man!
