    Really insightful podcast guys. Two of my favorite players and people!
    One reflection/insight that arose for me (that may be useful for someone reading this) regards dealing with negativity...many of us have discovered the freedom, stress-reduction, and inspiration that comes from letting go of negativity and viewing things in a more neutral or even positive light...this is a blessing, because we have all likely also experienced feeling very negative about things ourselves....it's just human nature. But, when we notice someone else being really negative about things, it's natural for us to want to say "stop being negative, just be positive," etc. But this is often a reactionary stress response from ourselves, comes off as judgmental, and often doesn't get received well. So whenever we notice getting upset about someone else's negativity, this is an opportunity for OURSELF to reconnect with that peace and positivity within ourself. And to better communicate the message for the other person, we might be better off (1) to put ourselves in their shoes for a moment and understand why they might be feeling negative, and then (2) encourage them to see a new path, by saying something like "hey I understand why you may feel that way, and I used to feel a similar way about x...but there's actually a lot of good and opportunity in the situation, and we'll get better results by focusing on the opportunity instead." And if the person is really so stressed out that they do not understand, we do not "need" to make them understand...we can just move on....any extra worry is just more attachment/ego illusion on our part. But through self-awareness, and honest but compassionate communication, we can really guide someone towards a better path that they might not have seen, just like we hadn't (and still don't) at times. With humility and gratitude, blessings everyone, have a lovely day.

    It's funny I've heard a lot of MTT regs say late regging is betting for your hourly while regging on time is better for you ROI but I know for sure I've had far more success late regging and Pads pretty much confirms that my experience is probably how it should be around the 15 minute mark. Really great interview, with lots of honesty and nuggets to learn from.

  • @moonsniper3543
    @moonsniper3543 4 роки тому +5

    Great interview! Love the Pete Sampras analogy. I could never totally buy into to the GTO balance approach as a winning implementable strategy. I'm more inclined to develop exploits against hardcore GTO practitioners. It seems so many overlook fold equity these days and look for excuses to call into marginal situations at critical times when they can just hold on to their stack and get it in as the aggressor in a better spot a few hands later.
    As far as holding onto edges after success, I think the skills most likely to erode are the mental game and bankroll management skills. Both skills can be better maintained with more humility and less ego. Winning feeds the ego and erodes discipline. Gotta always stay ready for the ride on the variance train.
    I look forward to the meta games against GTO players in live play at low to mid stakes. I am not a robot, and neither are they.

    WOW! I so agree. I had this discussion on the DTO discord. A simple question about their app having RFI spots turned in to sarcastic speeches about how preflop actually didn't matter much. I guess anything to sell a product. I tried to clarify if they were talking about cash games (which still wouldn't make sense, but a bit more) but no, tourneys and SnG's too. So yes, I'm very happy to have seen this video.

With this perspective from their side it will be up hill battle. Gl us

    Essentially the genre, scope, or nuances don't really matter unless you have the proper mindset. Granted, I'm sure they struggled at first (as both mentioned), but they are really making up for it on the back end by living the life they've chosen, enjoying the friends they choose, and limits they enjoy trying to attain. Honesty is a rare quality with something as contentious as poker, and it's actually in ones best interest to water down their advice. Kudos and Karma

    @50:22 This reminds me of an interview of Valentina Shevchenko, a current UFC champion. They asked her if she regrets all the sacrifices she made to train so much and give up so much time. She said, "What should I regret? Should I have wasted my time getting drunk and doing stupid stuff? Is that even something I should regret?" I regret nothing because all my dedications has brought me here where I'm at and now I can do so much more than just celebrate. - all paraphrased by me. Devote valuable time to what you want to achieve. It's part of that "hard work" everyone talks about...

    Is there any discussion on some forum about the claims on the Piosolver not being useful at the start of tournament, when bluffcatching on the river? The topic starts at 19.30
    The example is that when pio says you win 100 chips with that river call, then at the start of tournament you capture only about 20 percent of that, since dollar ev is so low.
    But doesnt capturing only 20 percent of that still mean you are making a plus ev call? Even if the play shows plus 1 chip, then capturing 0.2 chips is still plus ev in the longrun?
