I made it into a Doug Polk video!

This current content flow is off the charts

I love the breakdowns with your commentary along with the solver, seeing the mixture helps with the overall understanding why the plays make sense.

Love the solver in combination with your breakdown, the two side by side really paints a perfect, full picture when analyzing hands like this. So glad to see you making content again, keep it up!

The statistical analysis with the charts are good for visual learners and the breakdown talk is good for listening on the go.

I liked the light sprinkling of the solver analysis. No need to go too deep in the solver, but I think this video balanced it just right

I like hearing your thought process as in depth as possible, but seeing if the solver agrees with the conclusion is simply a bonus.

This is just like the good old days, great stuff thank you. I think half your analysis and half what the solver likes is perfect just how you did it so we get both sides

Doug, I'd actually like "both" your opinion and what the solver says, it makes fpr great content, and we can all learn something along the way.

I loved everything that this is. More please! Glad you’re back, Doug

I dig the solver breakdown angle quite a bit. It's always interesting seeing what the solvers say about particular situations, especially those as intriguing as this. It's really cool you are making videos again Doug looking forward to more.

Like it Doug! This 'soft analysis' makes great content

love the addition of the solver work and more indepth analysis

Love the solver style breakdowns Doug! As a live player I do think there is room for both a solver/mathematical approach as well as an exploitative approach. Perhaps the type of players in the hand (or the type of game) could be what decides what type of analysis you take.

love the combo of your brainz and solver work

Love both the polker insight and solver streets! Video was a good combination of both

These new videos coming in fast 🔥 Doug for president!

This content is really improving my day thank you Doug!

Hey Doug, love the more frequent posts! I thought this format was awesome, solver + your own intuition. Thanks for making my Monday a lot better 😊

Would like to see both solver content and doug content

I like the combination of your experience along with the solver output. Best of both worlds. Keep the good content coming. Thanks.

Came here from twitter, heard you talk about this video. It is a great hand! The video was never recommended to me, glad I watched it. Hang in there, you are the man of the people!

Keep up the good work Doug! We are loving the consistent content! 👍🏽

Perfect mix of what YOU would do vs. the solver. Also like that you let each round play out without commentary THEN you back it up to chime in; it gives us the chance to ponder "what would I do" before listening to your and the solver. Spot on perfect, the nutz of review, commentary, and the nitty gritty. Well done! 👍

I liked that. Solver stuff helps reiterates, and opens eyes. For us that don't run them it's really very interesting and ur ability to concisely clarify solver reasoning is rare and a welcome gift u share when u do this type content. Puts ur teaching skills on a level of PG in my opinion. Thanks for sharing.

Adding the solver in is awesome!!! Thanks Doug! Keep it up!

i love the hands that you’re picking to analyze doug. your vids are very entertaining and a fun watch. keep up the content!!!

Some of both is good. I enjoy the funny’s and the analysis. Good work Doug.

This was brilliant. More of this please.

Love the silver! Great vids lately 👌 welcome back

nice video Doug,, id like to see more videos with the solver, as i just started using and trying to figure it out

The content is GOLD! Do both 👍👍

With some solver analysis like today, it adds value. Also, it gives some idea how to use solvers. Thank you for your great work

very nice - would love to see more videos of this kind

I like the addition of the solver, really helps us see how far people are deviating from “correct” play and if people are secretly gto geniuses

Thanks Doug, this was great. Would like to see this type of analysis AND what you would have done

The king is back... this is amazing content bro! 🎉

I'm just glad that you're going back to the way you really make money: By talking about poker. :) What I love about your channel is when you just give your straight up commentary. You are naturally funny.

love the gto approach explanation. also interesting to know your approach but i just have hard time focusing on the math by myself and it helps when other people go over it.

These breakdowns are great. Could you do mid-stakes hands as well? I love watching high stakes but the lower stakes tables play very differently xD

refreshing to got u back here Doug. You can do either way. some vids with solvers some vids with what u would choose to do.

Mariano + double M = triple M, which as we all know, stands for Triple Range Merge. Flawless execution by Mariano picking up on that in this hand and going for it.

Doug, listening to you break down hands is great with or without solvers. I know this is pre school stuff for you, but to us mortals it’s pure gold.

The mix you give is very good. You give the context of what it is like sitting in the seat of a high stakes game. And also "go to the book" to see what the computer says. It's a classic human v machine .

I enjoy the breakdowns. It's good to see how I should be thinking about hands that I'm playing.

Great vid loved the solve analysis

Awesome Video Doug Love your videos 😊 Question will you do video in depth of nik airballs hand vs Stanley (AJ)?

These videos are the best. Personality shines through. Keep it funny but keep it poker.

Omg can we please go back to daily videos for 90 days straight? Haha keep it up Doug!

Giving your analysis and then showing us the solver works well. Your comments teach the viewer how to interpret the solver and provide a ton of extra value. Keep crushing it! 👍

I like the mixture of you and the computer. You should throw in a joke about how you beat the computer and that sometimes it could be wrong. Lol

Damn i shouldn't have called his bluff when he said he had a bunch more video's to put out.

In agreement with the other comments, the mix was really good and is a great format for you.

Really loving the solver breakdowns

I love getting into the solver streets. I like to learn about the nuance that goes into some of these close decisions.

the solver stuff is fantastic, love it

Hey Doug, I ❤ the nerdy computer analysis. I don't think it will routinely apply to the games I play, but it really helps me understand some of the nuances of why the computer does things. It's fascinating.

This style is nice, feel free to throw some more of your perspective on it though. Happy to see you back!

I love the combination like you did in this video, say what you would do and what the solvers say. TX!

Love the solver explanations

Doug and Bart imo are the best commentators ever in terms of analysis and flow. Just great great content.

Doug we love both! Either you blasting off in the one drop, or showing us the math of blasting off in the one drop

Both, breakdown was very nice!

I like this new format!

Welcome back Doug!!!

Hi @Doug , while the solver is using 86 type hands as bluff some of the time in all 3 streets, it's also giving up some of the time in each. This type of randomization is very hard to implement for people, and most thinking players tend to have no pure giveups in polarized 3 barrel spots once they start bluffing and miss later on. This results in either overbluffing on the river or underbluffing on the flop (or both). If this leak is true for the opponent, does it make sense to call tighter on the flop than optimal and call down all bluff-catchers on the river, as an exploit?

like the analysis and format as is, would enjoy some discussion on players' mannerisms and live tells. I noticed mariano check his cards once or twice AFTER barrelling on the river and hearing your thoughts on if this is a giveaway would be sick

both is way better math and you as a pro - best to know all option why and when vs one player or another is a better play in the long run ---- love your content and role model successes - helps as a business man, a little bit of personal and poker play

I would love it if you would try to talk more about how to deviate from gto on these types of hands

Solver analysis is great. Love it. What's the program you use?

I like your analysis, the solver is good to see as well

Whats the name of solver you are using? Great content, really enjoyed breaking down this hand for us and poker news are off the charts, like the humorous side of that.

I like it when you get into the nitty gritty. Good video.

Say how you would play it, love your breakdown vids👍🏻

+1 for mixing in some Pio work.. A nice balance between "traditional" Polker hands and some in depth combinatorics/ solver stuff is the nuts, IMO.

I love a great mix of nerdy and ("WWDD") What Would Doug Do input. Stick with that Sir, its much appreciated.

Analysis with solvers please 😊 it was great

Loving the solver analydis

I'm pro the solver work - if it starts adding too much time to the videos, at least showing it allows us to pause and take a look at our own pace.

Also I like smaller size on turnblike he used and then ai river cuz it increases fold equity - if we overbet turn and get called seems very torchy to still follow thru on river

Loving the stuff with the solvers, but can you explain the actual solver program a bit more, like what do the numbers beside the bets mean on the solvers (I assumed that was bet amount but it didnt seem to be matching with the hand) or anything else that isnt necessarily intuitive

Nik Airball: "Somebody say something!" Double M: "Lemme get some chips" Lol

Solver Doug we need more solver in our lives

Doug looking LEAN! check out those arms. GJ

Like the solver stuff!

I think the JT turn check frequency is more to do with equity vs bluff balance - checking and seeing a river is more profitable than having to give up some frequency to a turn check raise.

I enjoyed seeing the solver but I value your experience and knowledge as well. I think Mariano might get Mariano might get called a bit more after that hand, but that could be a good thing for him.

We all saw that hand and wanted to know whether Mariano was spewing there or if it was good. Thanks!

I like both styles of analysis

If you could include both solver info and the way you would play it, that would be great. Thanks for the videos.

Doug I think all options are on the table here. More solver content would be great however I can also see you mixing in some pure Doug’ analysis here too. 😂

Since you reference the solver often its good to see. Perhaps only when relevant. Was good to see the solver fold AQ (Pay off Rec wizard here) but call exact suits. Regardless its your commentary that seals the deal.

I like the idea of talking through the solver occasionally for marginal hands like this, teaches a lot especially for newer players on how to use solvers to look at their game

I agree with most people responding here! Really liked the video!

This mix is perfectly fine

You raise with pairs + bd draws because when super deep you need to use highest equity hands that also blocks their strongest call downs - because when we take this raise line on flop then by turn and river AK AQ AJ AT have to start folding :..

Not sure about everyone else but I love the breakdown

I prefer the solver analysis, otherwise it's usually just "you should mostly raise here, but calling or folding i dont mind either." lol jp doug you're the goat

I like the mix of breakdown + solver.

Loving solver stuff in addition to your gut
