We just finished the second class.  Overall, I felt it was a very productive class. 

Here's a quick summary of the lesson:

Hey ya'll,

 We are going to have our second lesson tomorrow (Monday) at 8PM.  PLEASE DON"T BE LATE!  It's gonna be fun!

 --GL.  See you at 8. 

Yesterday, we took the first step of the long journey. We had a full house (get it?) of Noen, Vy, Chris, and Deej. Hac helped me teach which made me pretty happy because I had some concepts I know I did not do a great job explainin. Also, we were able to focus on the students a lot better.

We went over the concepts of EV, Odds (pot and implied) and more in-depth into preflop play. I gave out a handout with a chart of the specific hands to play from each position.

Ideas for the next class:
