I renewed my membership out of curiosity after seeing the bryce have some excellent results at hu limit and not knowing too much else about his game. His vids are far and away the best I've seen. I actually enjoy watching them a 2nd time, there is just so much information packed into every single video. Probably a bit frustrating for him and your site that these don't get the attention they deserve while people go crazy for sbrugby vids even though those have been very disappointing.

I'm a limit->nl convert, but I have been playing some hu limit lately with very good results. Really a lot of fun, so much less folding compared to 6max nl and so many more opportunities to really attack people. I wish there was more game selection though, just seems like its always the same regs sitting alone.

anyways great work, looking forward to more hu limit vids, particularly the longer ones vs good aggressive opponents where we can see what adjustments you make over time based on the information you pick up. The classroom vids are extremely helpful also. I watch the 6 max vids but don't get as much out of them since I don't think I'll ever go back to 6max limit. Would certainly be interested in seeing some hu nl vids if you do decide to dabble some more with nl.

We will have a great head-up limit video between Bryce and Stox this weekend. It is the 3rd match between them and both players hole cards are displayed. This one is from the perspective of Bryce.

I agree with the poster that Bryce talked too fast in his videos. Bryce has a brilliant mind and I suppose he’s not aware that he could think and talk many times quicker than normal people. Anyway, I believe it would be more beneficial for the ‘normal’ viewers if Bryce could slightly slow down his talking speed.

NB: To me, Stox’s speed, tone and context in his videos has been PERFECT.

AQ call down in hand 1 is terrible at 2/4 imo.

This may very well be true, one thing I discuss a lot is that I don't intend to try and teach people what their opponents are likely to do and that I believe the onus for that falls on the user building up experience by playing a lot of poker. In table play videos my focus is on explaining to people how to find the best possible lines based on what they assume their opponents are likely to do. I'm starting to defer more and more towards power-point presentations and the like, since I believe that teaching poker on an instructional basis rather than a demonstrative basis is far more powerful.

Fwiw, I really liked the way Ed did his first video - a combination of powerpoint slides where he makes a point, and hands in the PT replayer that demonstrate the point he just made. With the PT replayer, he could take as much time as he needed to discuss the hand rather than being forced to move on to the next hand that's dealt.

I disagree, vs the right opponent you will often find Axo there. Its slim but its the correct play at times. How would you play it? What range of hands do you assume the villain has without any read? From my experience there are many low-limit players who spew away chips in this precise situation because they believe strength is the only way to win the hand heads up. The pot is large, on the river hero is likely to have the best hand greater than 1 in 6x.
