Today asimos is back with a new series which aims to get you from a micro stakes grinder to a mid stakes crusher. 

Through the Stakes will see our coach take you through NL10, NL25, NL50, NL100 and finally NL200.

For each level there will be two videos. A live play video where our coach gives us the lay of the land, followed by a research video where he reviews key hands, points out common leaks at these levels as well as the adjustments you should be making. 

If you didn't know already asimos is a Zoom crusher who plays NL100 and NL200, but will soon be making the jump to NL500 Zoom. 

He is an experienced coach and if you want to learn more you can visit his blog, which is one of the most popular cash game blogs in our community forum. 

Today's first video is a live play video which takes us through NL10 and the leaks you should expect to see there.
