Brad - you're simply the best. Love how you show you can be serious about something without being too serious about yourself.

Brad, thanks for all these videos. Just watching has stepped up my game big time and learning how you think has reflected in my own play. I've been doing a lot better in my games and these videos are also just a ton of fun to watch!

I was playing $1/$2 NL yesterday, which might have been $1/$5 with the continuous straddle, mixed with huge 3-bets and 4-bets - It was nuts. Down $475 and managed to win it all back by the end of the night. I was definitely out-matched at the table but I'd like to think helping your videos gave me some much needed insight. Thanks Brad! Love your channel.

This session was insane, making hands, folding at the right spot ! Well done, Brad!

Bruh that clock call obliterated all respect I had for that guy.

The phone keeps track of the time on its own, which is then very easy to implement. Manually counting hands takes a lot more effort and there are enough distracting things happening with filming and taking notes while I'm playing that I don't want to add anything else to it that's tedious. With the timestamp it's pretty easy to estimate about how many hands I've played though.

I do have to say... you earned a sub due to the spectacular way you explain your thinking, showing what needs to be shown, and generally assisting those of us who are NOT pro players and don't understand when or how to bet and for what size. Many players who video blog their sessions do not do this and expect the general audience to just "know" what they are doing and how they are playing. While this may toss off the more experienced, I for one, appreciate the excellent and instructive commentary. Thank you. And I know... 5 months after the fact, but hey, it's what popped up in my feed.
