Strategy Round-up: Best treatment for ugly spots
It is only in nature of poker to put you in the most difficult situations and force you to make tough decisions, and we are here to help you with those. Our videos will help you make good decisions in ugly spots and this week's quiz will also test your ability to play made hands in FL Hold'em on draw-heavy boards.
It's all fun and games until somebody cracks your aces...We've all been there and with endless difficult spots that we find ourselves in, it's never a bad idea to educate yourself on the best possible solution to avoid painful mistakes.
jonathanlittle will help you out with that in his new MTT $215 series - and he just finished his previous MTT series this week with the final, fourth part of the Sunday Warm-up.
Our other video producers have also been busy this week, providing you with plenty of videos which will help you improve your play, whether it be in PLO, NL, FL or SnG. You can find the full list of the videos released this week below:

Quizzes, articles and other updates
Ugly boards are the last thing you want to see when holding a made hand, which is one of the things that makes them ugly - but how to play your made hand in these ugly spots?
Draw-heavy boards open the doors for all kinds of aggressive bluffs or
semi-bluffs, so it's really hard to let go of your made hands. There
are, however, situations where you just donate your money to the
opponent if you miss the window of opportunity to get out of the hand.
Do you know when you can give up a made hand on a very drawy board - and when you shouldn't? This week's Fixed Limit quiz will give you an answer to that.
