To be the devils advocate on the subject of DYMS i actually disagree that coxylboro's play is too eratic. I dont grind DYM's personally now but i played alot of them in the past. I think that peoples play in these games has leaned so much to the tight side because of all the tips and advice given for playing them that people play too tight, these 6 max games consistently get to the stage where there are 5-6 players still in with everyone having 5-10 big blinds, the variance factor becomes much greater. If you have the chance to increase your advantage for the bubble why not use the early stages to accumulate chips and take advantage of these people effectively sitting out and playing their cards pretty much face up?
I can move my ears too but my real talent is blowing bubbles of my tongue . It really annoys people but it helps me think at work and my desk and the office floor gets covered in bubbles. My record is having 30 bubbles on the floor before the first one popped !!!!
To be fair, I partly agree with Hurst05 and Coxy on playing aggressively early on in this particular DYM. The argument I would make against Jen's and Dana's argument on this is; with all the tight play early on in these DYM's, competent opponents simply aren't going to call your 3-bets very often. Your 3-bets will get through soooo often that you won't be needing to play the flop very often, so that 3-bet is the only amount of chips you stand to lose in the hand and far more often you will take down the small pot. Even if that only gains you an extra Big Blind in later levels, surely that's a good idea.
If you know that your 3-bet is only getting called by big hands, then there's no reason to ever c-bet the flop unless you hit your hand big. Against a field such a this one, where the majority are playing super-tight early on, I think it's pretty appropriate to be 3-betting pre quite alot in the early stages. In a weaker field, this is going to be bad advice, of course.

play alot of low level d.y.m's and have to agree with both ways of playing dependant on the players and the table dynamics,sometimes tight is good but doubling up early can sometimes be a big advantage too,but i am no expert hence the reason i play low level lol
all your poker advice is great advice but wouldn't you agree that poker advice is relivant to the persons sitiuation for instace the correct way to play A'Q might not at the time be relivant? and a diffrent move may be required which may possibly be seen as a bad move but also the right move if that makes sense lol
Yeah, I've got a hidden talent - I can always sense it just before I get a bad beat. Seriously, I think I'm psychic or something... or maybe I'm just getting unlucky all the time...
Anyway, good show and it's nice to see some DYM analysis!
In Response to Re: Tues night Live Show with Fowler, Jen Mason and special guest Dana Immanuel ***official show thread*** : That's amazing! Any tips for the under-30's? :P Posted by BorinLoner
Evening Ladies! Great show as per usual. I'm assuming the make-up dept get a night off when Rich & James are on?? Re DYM play, personally I think the shove with 1345 left by Jen seemed too early. In an MTT yes, but theres still a lot of play left with 1345 in a DYM. (Depending on blind levels - which I missed!)
