Jamie Kerstetter Premiere Series

In part two, Jamie continues with her mixed stakes live sweat. Most of the tournaments are turbos, so for those of us that don’t have as much time to grind as they use to, this is a great series to watch. She covers what types of hands to play when you are presented with significant implied odds, when it might be worthwhile to bet slightly less than all of your chips when short stacked, and button vs blind dynamics in a 6max turbo, and about bubble play.
In part 3 Jamie is down to the final table in the $77 turbo so she talks about the dynamics involved in the final two tables and how it differs for non turbos.

He goes over early and mid-stage play in these majors where the standard of play can be highly variable. He also talks about different bet sizes for different players in order to exploit their tendencies.

Turbulence is making his standard couple of final tables a week, this time in a $10 rush tournament, and a $20r on Full Tilt (yay full tilt is back!) M@ddm@n and Killingbird also made final tables. @VanH3Lzing was also crushing it on Full Tilt, finishing 7th in a tournament for around $550.
