say we give villain 1 the following range - 22+,A2s+,K5s+,Q7s+,J8s+,T8s+,98s,A5o+,K9o+,Q9o+,J9o+,T9o
and villain 2 - 77+,ATs+,KTs+,ATo+

I think this is erring on the tight side tbh. Please correct me if I'm way off?

We are 34% against these ranges (assuming the BB folds)

Pot - 24bb
Our stack - 16bb

So we have to call 16bb to win 24bb - 1.5-1 so we need to win 40% of the time to break even

(assume bb is 100 for ease on my maths)
(0.31 x 2400) - (0.69 x 1600) = 816 - 1104 = -288 = -2.8bb

-EV shove
so I changed my mind... Fold

The fact that this is a satellite doesnt really alter it for me here, we are way off the places and need to get chips

All the stack sizes would help, but without any reads I'm calling here although I do think its sorta close.

Malaysia!! Its truly Asia!

Melaka is an awesome place to go visit
Cameron Highlands too is ferocious - def worth a visit

Get out to the national park - Taman Negara
I was gonna suggest Penang, if you've been that side maybe head over the other side this time
Go to Singapore too imo

Missed Langkawi when I was there.... any good?

runitonce is pretty decent for mtt's, lego for cash. pokerstrategy worth a look too.

yeah this pretty much, RIO is pricey but worth it. If you play PLO at all then I would go with it for sure.

Pocketfive training used to have some good stuff on it as well for Mtts.

Just don't get sucked into buying TPE cos it's cheap, you get what you pay for with that one

If you wouldnt mind, could you clarify why re: TPE?

Just my opinion of course, but I dont want to watch a instructional video where the main aim of the lead video producer is to see how many times he can say 'stuffy baker' in a video or some other little catchphrase he has.

I am sure they have some good video producers on there somewhere, but I have watched videos by 8 of the 'coaches' there and found very little of value. Mainly seems to be narration of the action or very limited analysis on any hand played.

I did see one video by darly jace that I think was probably good content, but it was so boring I literally fell asleep watching it. Just my view but, an instructional video doesn't have to be a dry monotone monolgue. The viewer needs some level of entertainment/engagement whilst watching it.

I would also level the same at a couple of the Run it once video producers, but they make up for it by having some great content as well and I also noticed the few instructors that were like this have not made any more videos since their opening ones.

I would also agree with what the above poster said about DC, it's a great site well produced material and most of it is good quality, just MTT content is pretty light. For mix games its really good as well



Cheers for the detailed response. I was looking at this site recently an thought it looked pretty cheap yet with videos by daryl jace an bigdogpkt5s an also seems to get plugged on other forums quite a lot. The sample I watched was just as you say though, narration not analysis so yeh maybe not as good as it seems

Will you be listing the qualifiers, real names that is, and chip counts, from the online Day Ones each day as they happen?


Hi David

As with the Deepstack online Day 1, we will post the chip stacks that make it through without names.

Cheers Nicola Smiley

Hi Nicola

I'm puzzled by this. Can someone please explain why this is how it was on this month's DS and why it is to be this way again? For the record, the February DS online qualifiers were fully identified.



thanks

this

I dont get it either
