thanks guys, very much appreciated

I personally enjoyed the video, it was different from your typical HH Review/strategy vid and it addressed a lot of topics/biases that we are quick to neglect when we have good immediate results. Don't be discouraged by some of these negative comments this was great stuff and would actually like to see more videos like this one...

Awesome video, I really resonated and identified with the inner mental dynamic you described. I am a live player and I find myself in many situations where I know I should be bluffing (at least in theory I think I should be) but I end up not doing so because I think to myself "Oh this guy is for sure going to call me" and then I mentally recall some absurd/crazy play he/she made in the past when I should probably be more focused on the current session/moment and what actions/tendencies my opponent has recently displayed. Sometimes in these kind of spots I think the reason I tend to second-guess my decision to bluff is due to a crossover between theory and game-flow. Theoretically I believe I am supposed to bluff but I have second thoughts because subconsciously I feel as though my opponent's live mannerisms, gestures, and most recent decisions/actions at the table make it seem more likely like he's going to call. I'm not sure if I'm making complete sense here and I probably can't describe this dynamic as clearly as you did in this video but if you could give me some feedback on what you think that would be great...
Also, I'm not suggesting that I feel this way every time I bluff but sometimes I feel like I just need to be confident, buckle down, and empty the clip!

Thanks.
