So I probably overvalued my draw/made hand on all streets. Classic PLO-fish-move I guess.
Anyway, thanks for your oppinion, seems legit. :)

Hey, I would appreciate some help from you guys on a hand i played yesterday,
we are playing a homegame with friends with 5ct/10ct blinds. We mostly play NLH, but sometimes play some hands of PLO. So noone is really competent at that game. Anyway, this happens:
Information on Villian: thinkings player, doesnt overvalue hands, never bluffs, likes to call/draw
UTG folds
UTG+1 opens to 0,30
MP calls
HJ (Hero) call with 8743o
D (Villian) calls
SB fold
BB call
PREFLOP POT: 1,55
4-way to the Flop: 5 6 6 (no fd)
UTG+1 checks
MP checks
HJ (Hero) bet 0,80
D calls
Rest folds
FLOP POT: 3,15
HU to the Turn: 5 6 6 3 (no fd)
Hero bets 2
Villian calls
TURN POT: 7,15
HU to the River: 5 6 6 3 8
Hero (4 behind) ...
Question: How did I play this hand? Thought process: On flop, I wanted to take controll of the pot with my moster straightdraw on this dry flop. When Villian calls, I think he has a lot of 5x, some straight draws, which I block, maybe a 6 with an overpair. When I turn the Nut-Straight, i bet for value, hoping to get called by a random 5 or a Pair + straight draw kinda hand. When Villian calls here I put him on a good 5 or a boat, because I think he wouldnt do that with weaker hands. Now on the River I am not sure what to do to: Its hard to get called by worst, but it sucks to check fold, doesnt it?
Any oppinions on my play and the river spot?

Hey Owen, love the video.
Your Indroduction was really heplfull and had some really good tips in it. I, as a MS-Player, sometimes do stuff, which would only work against thinking players, where as most of my opponent aren't like that. You just made me remember, that I should stop doing that. Thanks. :)

Remember you can speed it up in the Player-Settings. I listen to it at 1.25x Speed and i quite like it.
If you are better at short stack play, late reging seems fine and I dont see any problems by doing that.
But if you end up playing from the beginning, I would recommend playing fairly tight and then loose up your game once the antes kick in.
I prefer to just late reg the regular tourneys, because I think the early stages are just not worth my time/attention, especially when Im multitabling. But I choose to play the 6-max tourneys from the beginning, because I think I have a better edge and can exploit my opponents better at 6-max, making it worth my time.
