In this part 1 of 3 video Marvin plays 4 tables of $100 NL 6-Max on PokerStars. Marvin makes it a point to select tables/seats that will most likely put him in difficult spots and discusses how to adjust to the bad seats and playing versus polarized ranges.

good stuff so far only like 10 min in though, will try and do real post with real question later.
baba Yo! Couple of thoughts/questions about the final k9 hand.

1) Would you play the hand differently 100bb deep here?

2) You mention when he bets turn he's looking to get value from your Ace of spade type hands, would you c/c the turn with Ax with spades without a pair I would have thought you'd be betting it and firing alot of rivers?

3) As a critical observation i think you have a tendancy to be 'too certain' in your observations, for example Im not sure why you know villian wont bet the turn when checked too (on the 6spades) with TT/ JJ or 9x? Isnt betting TT on the turn in villians spot reasonable both for valaue and because he doesnt want to let a 4th spade roll off on the river for free? I also think alot of villians check back alot tp or flush draws on the flop simply because your deep here so i think his turn betting range is wider than you give credit for.
Birchinio In the K9s hand 200bbs deep you say you remove TT/JJ etc from his range, how come you think he can never have those hands there? Can't he check back flop with those hands then bet turn for value/protection and now be betting for thin value again OTR?

Also you seem to think that Ocnits is squeezing really light, is that based on previous hands or reads? Are 10 tabling regs usually squeezing that light OOP when a seemingly nitty reg opens in MP and btn flats? I can understand how jamming > calling/folding, does the idea that he can be squeezing there so often justify turning TT into a sort of bluff shove? Because that's surely what it is because I don't think he ever shows up with a PP
piguanitore 1) In the last hand, say you're in villain shoes, and bet half pot on the turn w/ TT no mustard, and villain (which is you in the actual hand) check raises.
You agree his line doesn't make any sense ? So you call ? And what if he bets river big again ?

2) You said you are very aggro from BB vs SB open. How do you play 78o - KQo in this situation vs an aggro reg you know is 4bet bluffing a decent amount, and flatting 3b OOP to C/R flops etc..
Jimmy Blux Nice video, your one of my favorites.

I really liked the analysis on the last hand with all the different scenario on different turn/river.

Keep up the good work.
JamesMa Hey steel,

was checking out ur vid, around 16minutes with 66 on the bottom right table. You bet JJ4 board and fire the turn and plan on checkcalling the river. I think its more of a checkfold on the river than a checkcall.

Even you had stated that he probably isnt value betting thin but the thing is that when he bets the river he pretty much is only going to be betting air. So unless I felt that villain was double floating in a spot like this, he probably doesnt have much of an air range to bluff with. He's probably checking back his ace highs and 4x, small pocket pair types of hands.
dcole Whats up Steel, this video was awesome as usual. Keep it up. You and JamesMa are the best!!
