Samoleus Protege Part 3 (Bonus)

Niman, I was impressed with the rapid progress of your student. Re: the QQ fold (I recently moved up from the micros), I think the key question is, "Is this player a TAG who is aware of 3/4 bet dynamics in spots such as HJ vs. blinds?" Very few players here are, and until I have direct evidence that this guy is stealing or 3/4 betting light (didn't seem to be any), it's a solid fold. However, at the next level (50NL) there are enough aggro TAGS that I would fold only to an uber-nit.

great video. A lot of players at these limits have a hard time to distinguish good spots to bluff push (or just pick the right spots to bluff for the right reasons) and not. The 8-7 hand was particularly informative. We can really a see an improvement in Chris' thinking and it's encouraging to a guy like me, who plays at these limits as well.
