Sean Fri12 years agoI really liked this. It's hyper valuable to me to see sessions where not everything goes right. Since the videos you guys make are such a small sample of the hands that you play, but a large, large sample of the hands I get to see you play, it's important to not just show sessions where you run like god. While it's fun, and can certainly be informative, if I only ever see you win it's going to make me question why I sometime lose. Never be scared to show your mistakes.
I'm also a fan of the more in depth analysis, especially talking about what you would do differently on different boards, or against different opponents. That context really makes it clear what you're trying to do. I've never understood why people who make poker videos do strictly video review or strictly powerpoint or strictly hand reviewer. It's completely not hard to learn enough basic video editing so that you can toggle back and forth between live play and text-based theory in the same video. Or even database analysis on particular spots to demonstrate that it's profitable. It might take a tiny bit more time, but I would consider paying at least 50% more for my essential package if someone were doing something that slick. Winky faced emoticon.
The table highlighting is awesome. Thanks for that.
When I first started making videos, I had two main things going through me. It's safe to make videos like what I've seen in the past. And I also have a lot of ideas about what I want to see in a training video. From the good feedback I'm getting about "my own" ideas (talking more in depth/table highlighting), it gives me more confidence to try out some more new things for my next series.
I really like the idea of finding some spots in a video and using a database analysis on them. I hadn't thought of that one! I wanted to do some database analysis... but thought videos like that were boring. The idea of including it in a "normal" video is amazing, and I'm definitely going to do that soon.
Thank you, this was really awesome! Let me know if you have any more suggestions :)
Terry Dolle12 years agoI totally agree with Sean's comments! It's very valuable for me as it enables me to become a better player. It was interesting to see how you could force a villain to play your game and get off theirs. The detailed analysis of the hands is an eye-opener as to what's really going on. Thanks again Mike!
Shiro11 years, 11 months agoThanks for releasing content with uncommon spots and questionable plays (I'm not straightforward calling it mistakes because info and timing we have during a hand is much more limited than during a video review afterwards). Internet is overloaded with useless training videos with sessions when every play coach makes is working miracles. I believe we learn most of our mistakes - it's just a matter of noticing and understanding them or not (and learning nothing). Keep up the good work, cheers
