Today we see the return of Robert 'pokerguru740' Kuhn with a new video on how to prevail in high pressure formats. 

Our coach has over $1 million in MTT cashes and is a SCOOP champion, but last year he decided to expand his game by also playing cash. His first cash video last year explained more about this move. 

Things have clearly been going well for him, as he is now a regular at NL500 Zoom, which is widely agreed as being one of the toughest cash game stakes played anywhere online in 2016. 

In this new video he plays three tables live and explains his decisions throughout. It's hard enough to play one table of Zoom at this level, but playing three and commentating on the action at the same time is no small feat, and our coach manages to have fun with it along the way.
