I doubt anyone will be watching this.. Maybe if they are super bored. Watching that properly and giving you feedback would take a lot of time.. Hire a coach.
Much in the way that people don't trawl through 20 pages of blog posts.. Personally being someone at the 10NL stake now, I'd watch any video someone posted of 10NL to watch how they play.
Either way it's not a problem, I recorded the video to make myself talk through my plays to make better decisions.. If I then didn't post the video, I'm just bluffing myself.
Regarding to the hand with QQ. I think we have to have a plan before we 4-bet. And if our plan is to 4b/f, I think it's better to just call the 3-bet.

It is good that you try to find leaks in your game and want to comment.
I will look at the vid.
Still I feel it will be more educational for you to single out the difficult spots, hands and post them separately.
This way every single spot will be put to the test and you will get comments. I think that in a 30 min video we can miss something.
OneDayIllMakeIt, happened something in particular in this session that u want to discuss?
If so, put the minutes here... I ll look ur vid after, btw ♠_thumbsup:
Here is the review, hopefully you can find something useful in there

If I don’t comment on a certain hand or spot, it means I agree with your play and thought process.

Table selecting is really important. That is the main reason to play normal tables (and dynamics but that’s not as easy to use) - you can always play with the fish. If you are impatient as you said, just play zoom. You’ll be able to play much more hands and the quality of tables at least as good as normal tables without table selecting. Nl10 zoom is even more profitable until the end of January because of the promotion.

Preflop you say you’ll set mine which is fine. Then on flop you hit no set and suddenly raise huge. 7 AF isn’t really enough information there because your sample is very low (just notice how much it changed after the hand). Also his cbet size is big, if he showed some weakness by making it half I would be more likely to agree. Board isn’t great either, you can’t represent much by raising. Just fold and keep it simple.
03:50 TJs
Raise flop. You said you will get value on the turn but there are quite a lot of cards that will kill your action. If you think he will fold a ton (which isn’t true on that board I think), it’s easy to find bluffs here with which to balance it. River he either has a bluffcatcher or air and draws missed so you can bet big and hope he has the bluffcatcher. Especially when you said you target hands like middle pair+.
05:15 TJs
You can cbet flop half pot with the backdoors. It’s dry board, you’re in position, more than enough FE.
05:20 T8s
On the turn you say he has a Q but you bet because your hand looks like a strong queen? I’m definitely not trying to make trips fold there. His range is Qx and probably some draws and I see no reason to bet.
10:25 AA
Why call flop? He can have draws, TP, middle pair even. Raise for value and if he shoves then easy fold. Against such players you can very effectively split their range with this play. They will shove their two pair+ so you don’t lose more money against that but they will call their draws and TPs allowing you to happily bet/shove for value on blanks.
16:40 AQo
It seems a bit strange to me to take this line on that board. You said he has a lot of Ax and bluffs but if so, why not just call? You beat (and dominate) all of these hands with AQ.
18:00 QQ
You can overbet turn for value, I don’t think fish will fold draws or give you too much credit. On the river your bet is way too big. Board is scary, even for a fish. You said you target AT, QJ(??) but this is a weak hand here. And he has a ton of flushdraws. If you want to go for thin value, make it small so he can call wide range, otherwise you’re just giving money to his flushes.
21:15 QQ
Ok, so you say he has nitty 3bet and has AK (which means he doesn’t really bluff) and you decide to 4bet/fold this? What are you trying to accomplish? He won’t fold better, he won’t call worse, he might shove AK and you will fold the better hand… Just call and play postflop.
26:40 K3s
I’m not cbetting this board with just BDFD, it’s too connected and fish won’t fold. Betting turn 3bbs also doesn’t seem good. You have no fold equity at all and you can’t really bet for value from draws either. Also you might get raised which is really bad for your hand => just check back.
29:00 AQo
On flop you said your plan is to bet at least two streets with the idea to bluff which is again neglecting the showdown value of AQ. I would bet flop small (as you said he won’t be folding much on flop so I do it for value) and then check back turn. No need to turn such a good hand into a bluff against a fish who won’t fold pairs. This seems like it might be a leak so it would be good to think it through.
In general you seem solid and you should be able to beat nl10 with a decent winrate. It’s hard to find leaks in only 30 minutes of play but possible problems might be using stats too much for low samples, underestimating showdown value of AK/AQ and trying a bit too hard to make fancy plays against aggressive opponents. I hope some of this will be helpful and I wish you the best of luck
