I don't want to discourage you, if you want to do these vids, by all means do it.

But bottom feeding is for a few reasons a total different game and I doubt it's very useful to learn pokerbasics there, because people will behave like some braindead monkeys in playmoney-games. And I don't know how sites handle this, but on Stars you can buy-in for 200BB, which you HAVE to do to maximize your EV there. The play then has to be ridicolous, because you're basically forced into a loose-passive preflop strategy.

I think the best limit to start learning ABC-Poker is 10NL, where ppl fold sometimes (still rare, but you can at least sometimes get a cbet to work), only buy-in for 100BB and where the money isn't big, but you could at least buy something nice for one stack.

The ppl who request such vidz don't know much about poker yet, so it's natural to ask for the smallest stakes, but NL2 is ridicolous, rly.

And yes, 2NL is beatable for kewl 20ptbb/100, and its not hard.
