    Am I just a player who breaks even Andy hen once on a blue moon takes down a big score?
    The fact you can already ask the question shows you’ve taken your ego out of the equation. Which means for better or worse, you’re already beating all the players who’s ego won’t allow them to review how they’re going.

    Nice video I was thinking raise the 33 on the turn lol but maybe a bit ambitious! Also for the T9s hand I don't suppose Ben let you know what you should do if you did overbet and he called you? Almost feels like you have to bluff the river, but I guess you are just giving up the river in the same fashion as you did?

    3rd hand: board A9248 - don't you want to use 33 as a jam on the river w some frequency? It appears to me as a much better bluff raising hand then a bluff catcher. You should be able to fold out some two pairs and even some bottom set type of hands. You would jam 53 and what are the better hands to rep it then 33 and 55? 43 and 45 migt be good as well since you block his set of 4s. OK, this is just a thought... I haven't run a sim or anything. But would be interested in opinions of other people. Thanks

    With 33 BvB I would be interested in what you guys think about jam vs his overbet on the river. It would look like 53 all day, we have more of them, if you raise 55 BvB you only get 33 to bluff here so no way to overbluff this spot rly. Seems like you can get him off 2 pair for sure, maybe some sets and you block the nuts as hard as it gets + with your exact hand (no 3c) you unblock his combo draws. Seems to me like a much better jam spot than a call. From his perspective it would look hyper strong, and when did he last see a jam bluff vs 2 overbet line? :D

    Pocket pairs that flop underpairs or 2nd or 3rd pair are always worse than connecting with the board with an un-paired hand because you have 5 outs when you make a pair on the board but only 2 outs when the pair is in your hand. Usually you aren't going to get a price to draw to 2 outs.

    I don't know, personally I think the first hand should have been a call at high stakes. Opening so small with AKo is a mistake that compounded and ended up being pushed off probably the best hand IMHO. You are folding top pair, then the next hand you are calling off 33 on the river which is 5th pair! WTF?
