As did I. Th kid has a lot of good advice to offer for; advice we lose touch with as we play poker for years and think we are better than we truly are.
Notice how he doesn't even tell us to play suited connectors as the top 10% of our range. Why? Because it causes us to chase straights and flushes, usually one of the two since you'll rarely be drawing to both.
If you are only chasing one of the two, you aren't even chasing the nuts (unless it's AK suited) and are almost always behind a bettor leading out.
Why is this bad? Because we learned it from TV (or at least I did), or in other words, Phil Ivey (or any pro you want to fill in the blank with).
I can honestly say suited connectors are tough to make money off of. I don't suggest folding them if you can get in cheap for implied equity, but without a big flop ( straight AND flush draw) be careful how much you invest in that hand because you are not, as the video says, Phil F'n Ivey...

Gamble: an enterprise undertaken or attempted with a risk of loss and a chance of profit
or success.
At the beginning of the video, it states, School of Cards: We Never Gamble. 
This clearly shows that the narrator of the video is a liar and possibly an idiot, and does not even remotely understand that even if you get your money in with a significant statistical edge, you are still gambling,
I agree with the narrator that you should play more premium hands like he states. However, some of the biggest pots one makes is with the junk cards that no one else is playing. But you should be selective and not invest too much money when speculating with these cards.
But overall, the narrator just falls into the group of "those that can do; those that can't, teach." He is young and misguided, but I bet he even realizes that the serious money in life is made from giving advice about high risk and potential loss games like poker, not from playing the actual game.

I hope common sense observations completely have you "tapped out", because the catchphrase speaks for itself. It is a COMPLETE fabrication, yet even a person that appears as bright as yourself (your consistent racist threads notwithstanding) has the audicity to defend the lie.

You gotta play outside the box. If you sit there and wait for Aces and Kings you will never get paid (or you shouldnt as it would take less than a hour to have to pegged as tight). Suited connectors are a great way to make money. LOVE being in pots that are multi-handed knowing that most everybody else has AK, QJ or a pair. I'm content to speculate with my 67.
You cant be afaid to open your range way up. Now, having said that, if you arent catching cards....you gotta know when to walk away.
Thanks Kenny Rogers
