    Great vlog! Really shows the stress that comes with stepping up to a bigger game. The stress comes from perspective of the value of money. It always seems to me that at bigger tables with players experienced with that game, they treat their chips as chips and less about their value. If you fixate on the value, it affects your decisions for better or worse.
