Question #1 from Oscar (2:25): Do you have any idea what are the ranges to call against a 3 Bet? I am lost on that part, bro. Question #2 from Tom Shock (12:00): What poker podcasts do you listen to? Other than yours, of course. Question #3 from Paul (14:30): Hey Sky, I’ve played poker going back to pre-Black Friday. I live in Jersey so mostly play online. I wanna get better but haven’t put enough time in. Can’t afford Splitsuit’s hand reading course right now. I’m a break-even player at best, and need to think about ranges more!! Any suggestions on how I can start improving my hand reading skills? Does Flopzilla give a tutorial on figuring out Ranges? Thanks for your time and effort. Keep up the great work!! Your enthusiasm is infectious! Paul Question #4 from Gus (17:15): Sky, I’ve been reading Ed Miller’s “The Course,” after I heard about it on your podcast. What do you recommend doing to practice each Skill level? Are there any online poker sites you highly recommend to do this on? Or are there other methods your recommend?
