w34z3l's 6max walkthrough

All videos can be found here.


Hey guys, this is the official thread for my upcoming microstakes series. This is the place to post homework assignments and ask any questions. I will also be giving away some free coaching sessions during the series to guys who complete the homework.

So what is the idea behind this series?

The aim is that this series should serve as a complete strategy guide for getting started and achieving a positive winrate at microstakes 6max games. It will cover all essential basic topics, such as preflop strategy and use of a HUD. It also aims to shed a fresh light on areas where commonly advised strategy is outdated. For example – modern understanding of blind defense, 3betting strategy, and playing in 4bet pots.

I will update this thread as it becomes relevant. For now feel free to introduce yourself if you feel like following the series. Thanks :coolface:

Episode 3- Like a HUDless chicken

Spoiler

Here is an older version of my HUD for those of you who'd like a jumpstart in HUD creation.

It has all the important information along with configured popups.

For best results spend a little time tweaking and familiarising yourself before you hit the tables.
