Dylan Weisman breaks down a hand from the $75,000 Triton PLO final table at WSOP Paradise in a new instructional video for Upswing Poker's Crushing PLO Tournaments course. The preview focuses on preflop decision-making when ICM pressure collides with chip leader dynamics at a short-handed final table.
Weisman examines how stack sizes, ICM calculations, and positional play interact during critical moments. His analysis reveals the tension between protecting your stack and exploiting shorter stacks. The hand demonstrates why PLO final table strategy demands precision. Players cannot simply apply cash game instincts when payouts shift incentives dramatically.
The video comes from Upswing's "Plan Explained" section, offering concrete examples rather than abstract theory. Weisman walks through the reasoning behind each decision, showing how chip leader advantage translates into fold equity. He illustrates why some spots demand aggression despite ICM pressure, and when tightening becomes correct.
This content targets serious PLO tournament grinders who study final table spots. Understanding ICM alongside hand strength remains fundamental to high-stakes PLO poker. Weisman's breakdown provides the framework players need to navigate similar spots in their own games.
