Thanks for doing this tannenj, it's definitely appreciated. Your commentary was a bit flustered at the beginning, but you seemed to have got into the swing of it by the end. I'd say there were two things that struck me most about your play:

1. You almost always checked behind with medium strength hands on the flop, or when the turn made you a pair after you'd bet the flop with nothing and you might otherwise have double-barreled (e.g. 24.30 (top right) you check K7 when the turn brings a K and shortly after (bottom left) you check A8 on a four-flush board whent the turn brings an 8.) On the first of those hands, you said 'if the turn was a Q I'd definitely have fired again.' But presumably if you're double-barreling those kinds of turns as a bluff, you also have to do it when it actually hit you? Or did you just think that for one session vs probably not very competent players it didn't really matter? If the latter, and balancing your bluffs wasn't a concern, why were you reluctant to bet the turn for value anyway? Was it just so that you could get more value on the river? (Hope that all makes sense.)

2. You seemed very trusting of some of the more complex HUD stats over a very small sample size (e.g. early on you dont bluff on Q88 board because other guy has a relatively high WTSD after 30 hands.) How accurate can someone's WTSD be after a total of 30 hands? Do you really think there's anything to be gained from this?
