Hello Poker fans,

So nice to do a refresher. I was able to correct a slight misconception in my UTG ranges. I was opening A9o+ and it is A9s+. There was a good reason why I always felt uncomfortable.

Although I would often stick to the ranges, I would usually play based on my feel for the opponents. One thing I have to do more is play aggressively versus tight players. It makes sense, since they would more than likely fold if their hands are weak. I do like to lie in wait for the loose players, but it is just ridiculous how lucky they can be!

It is really exciting to do this course again. I am picking up on things that I missed the first time around .

Cheers.
