In my experience, most major sites will respond to things like this if they get enough requests, and "enough" may not even be too high, so your email could really make a difference. Most sites also appreciate the feedback, it's so much easier when people tell you what they want to know what to do than it is to guess or to try to poll people on changes.
tx, I'll try that...

Re: **ALL Training Site Discussion Goes Here**

Hi guys, which training site would you recommend for a 6max NL cash grinder looking to break out of 100nl? Which site is best for 6max cash games in general?

Need trainingsite for heads up

Hello there grinderpeeps,

I'm Ruben, a young pokerplayer who likes to play heads up and I beat the 50NL cashgames Heads-up a little bit. But seen that I won alot in casino's/homegames and stuff I now have a decent bankroll and want to take it to a higher level. I wanna be able to completely crush the regs @ pokerstars.com and I need a trainingsite for that.

Which pokercoachingsite would you advice me to start following up a little bit completely crush 50-100NL heads up on Pokerstars?
I've been told that www.bestpokercoaching.com is very good, but the price is way too high for me. Seen the fact that I only have a 6.3K pokerroll it's a little bit too expensive I guess, or is it realy worth it's price?

A friend told me I should buy one month access to cardrunners.com and download as much heads up videos I can, but will I realy be able to crush the regs than??

Any advice is welcome and I would realy appreciate it.

Greetings, Ruben

Tough question to answer without asking everybody to spam about their poker training site/product.

Best bet is to simply look at the purchase pages of any training site that you're interested in to see if they offer moneybookers.

Most training sites that exist have been mentioned in this thread at one time or another.

I don't know for sure, but I would imagine many training sites accept moneybookers. It wouldn't surprise me if every single major one did, given the popularity of MB in non US markets (and even with relocated US players).

Re: **ALL Training Site Discussion Goes Here**

How do you get the most out of these online videos? Do you take notes while watching or do you just swing it and just watch it. I'm looking for new ways to watch videos because half the time I fall asleep in my chair watching them.

Probably varies, but my personal preference is to watch short spurts (15-30 minutes at a time) just before a session.

If I tried to watch 2 hours at once, it would take me out of my comfort zone and would take a lot of energy to get a lot out of it.

I would keep the comments section under the video on the training site open while watching, and type in any questions that you have throughout the video. I would also review those questions before posting to see if you can find the answers prior to posting, sometimes a second look is all it takes to have something "click."

I'd also look at quality of quantity. To me, 30 good videos by a great instructor are a lot more valuable than 300 random poker videos. If you're trying to see everything, so to speak, that might help explain why you're losing focus during these.

Also make sure you're actually playing, because the worst thing you can do is spend time watching instructional poker videos then not actually play much poker. There isn't really any entertainment value in most good poker instructional videos (aside from some style points with some guys).

And finally, one idea is to find another member of the same training site(s) you belong to and do sort of a homework study session where you each take a few notes of importance on a video or multiple videos and then do a session where you each review those main points of value together to make sure you're getting the most out of it. Then rail each other playing a session, or review some hands in HEM/PT, etc. to really get the most out of it.

I always recommend for people to watch them incrementally.

The majority of people get burned out or lose interest in videos after about 20-30 minutes.

Also avoid the temptation of having Facebook or GChat open while you are watching videos. Give it your undivided attention.

Re: **ALL Training Site Discussion Goes Here**

Hello guys, I am looking for the site with best MTT coaches. I don't need anything for begginers, I am already $15k+ , even got some students who made several thousand $ aswell, combining 45/180mans and mtts. I get very easily angry when I watch a video with bad coach, let hitthepanda and his simple push/fold with stack too big in 45mans be an example. I think I can already beat or breakeven pretty much anything except the most regfested games on stars like $320 mtts etc. But I want to learn to actually crush them :-) Any reccomendations ? I liked some bfizz11 videos on bluefirepoker on 180mans, not sure if its worth buying the whole site...

Coaching events in Vegas in August?

Ahoy!
I
'll be in Vegas from the 8th of August for a few days, and was wondering if anyone could recommend good coaching schools, events, etc. whilst I'm there?
Perhaps there are some Vegas stalwarts that I'm unfamiliar with?

Particularly interested in the beginner end of NLHE spectrum.

Thanks in advance!
