Against Stasia4242 YOU should fold Aces preflop

We have three offerings from our theory expert Stasia4242 this evening. 

First of all, don't miss this high level coaching tonight from 19:30 CET. It is all about how to adjust your vacuum based game plan vs open raises out of position. During the webinar he will make adjustments for a variety of ranges and player types. 

He also has two videos out today. One of them is the recording of his most recent webinar, which focused on how to defend your blinds when you have no information about your opponents

Sunday 500 - from 30 to 14 players

Finally, we have the latest part in his Sunday 500 review. This video shows our hero go from 30 to 14 players. Unlike previous videos where he reviewed the hands in a live play format, this week he is instead looking at just the most important hands worthy of discussion.

Let us know if you prefer this format, or the live play format, in the video's comments.
