Not the most inspiring play by Jjakji, but effective. Polt wanted to play macro games. Jjakji saw this, so he just all-inned and it worked. Should have been on Polt to adapt to Jjakji's willingness to all-in and not continue going CC first and having only a handful of marines for the first few minutes.

Yeah, as a player who always likes macro based play (as a Terran no less), this is really on Polt. 1 Barracks FE in a TvT is just such a completely unsafe build. He needs to be a bit more adaptive and understand his opponents tendencies and the current metagame.
1 Rax FE or die trying = much more dying.
He should at least Reaper expand. At least that way you can catch somebody going really fast Banshee/Tank tech with only a couple marines and do a ton of damage. You also get a crap-load of scouting information.
