    “That’s complete crap”. I LOL’ed instantly b/c this was me a few years ago before I was brutally honest w/ myself. Since then, I have been targeting my biggest leaks one by one. Great video.

    Hey Split

    Love the podcast, something new and fresh… I was wondering if you have anything on You tube or planning an episode on the topic of standard of operation. I always get confused or hesitate as far as what is standard of operation, I should be thinking during a hand. Should I be thinking stack size first or ranges first or the math first, pot odds first and so on and so on… This is the one thing, I wish there was standard or operation on how to operate during a hand.
    Any advice would be appreciated…

    Thank you and continue the great work..

    Great video! I have a hand that I believe was plus EV that I played last. Top two pair on the flop and I pushed all-in in a 1/2 game for $51. I have further details on the hand. Position and the style I believed my opponents were seeing me as. Very interesting spot for me. I think luck just wasn’t on my side last night and this would still be a profitable play in the long run. The turn and river just demolished my range. I could use some further hand analysis just to make sure this play is profitable because I think it was and I just want to clear things up. Playing a live tournament at 6:30 tonight then 1/2NL cash also live! Great video to increase my studying. Taking notes on training videos seems to be the best bet for me!
