I'd watch any of their vids any time. Anyone can go on a dowswing for a period of time but the cream always rises to the top.

I don't know much about that particular coach, but be sure to look at what stakes they are beating and what stakes they are losing at. A bad shot at 200/400 doesn't make someone a losing player at 10/20.

As far as I know that particular coach has a very good reputation.

Also, while big winning players are always the biggest draws and least questioned, you should look into the content of the video rather than the stats of the video makers more often. That goes for everybody, some of the training sites have some very good coaches with average stats.

The thing is, most training site members are low to mid stakes players. Who is going to relate best for low to mid stakes players? Low to mid stakes, solid winning players. Now, someone like Jman or CTS that can explain their through process very well may be better, but don't discount the mid to low stakes video makers just because their stats aren't "omg profit."

Who's the best golf coach? How many majors has he won?

Who's the best basketball coach? How many MVPs did he win?

Who's the best hitting coach? How many batting titles did he win?

To make it to the nosebleeds, you need more than fundamental poker skills, or even x and y poker skills, you need a lot of deeply developed mental skills to stay at those stakes and some players, no matter how strong they are fundamentally and no matter how good they are at beating and teaching the mid stakes, just won't have those skills and won't ever move up (not talking about MNIZG on that one, I don't know much about him other than leggo owner and good reputation as a player).

he's a very good player and an example of how ptr rarely tells the full story.

Just to reiterate the point, there is absolutely no financial gain whatsoever from promoting pokerswat. Perhaps it was just fresh in my mind when updating the rankings.

Ok, so I'm currently grinding micro-stakes NL and am considering joining a training site. Initially it was going to be Cardrunners but now I'm thinking DC because of the lack of sign up fee. Any thoughts? Does Cardrunners pwn DC and wd therefore be worth the extra initial cost?

As far as alternatives go, a lot of the LeggoPoker sample vids seemed to be at the mid-high stakes and with PokerSavvy Plus listening to Ike Haxton's voice would be too much to bear, but If anyone can think of any other decent sites for small stakes cash I'd like to hear about them.

Thanks

BFP has one great micro cash series and Don is making some NL50 vids often but that's pretty much it.

If your BR is short DC is your best bet imo.

Been a member at poker savvy for a few months, but never use it. Joined to watch ansky, but he never makes vids. Was just curious if there are any other instructors there (i dont really know any of them) who are worth watching for NL cash (and by worth watching, i guess i mean have a very solid winrate over the longterm). Just wanted to ask b4 canceling it, since i already have way too many memberships i dont use.

thanksss

Be sure to check out EpicFoldGuy (Grindcores) videos as they are very good.

For microstakes Ama and SavvyChris have a number of good videos.

I also highly recommend Foucalt's series which are mainly MSNL orientated, I can not say enough good things about them.

Eddi's videos are also very good, his latest series on playing OOP I have got a lot out of.

And of course there is the immortal TRD23, personally I think his videos are the greatest.

Regardless of stakes I think any player will be able to get a lot out of my Substance series, the rest of my videos are mainly for an SSNL audience.

Title says it all. My first thought was to try Cardrunners but uhhhh absolutely not, they have literally only a bare few mixed limit games vids. Anyone have a better suggestion? (besides "do a search". I tried, I didn't come up with anything.)

What's the best site for HU Cash NLHE and PLO?

Thanks.

The reason Ansky "never makes vids" is DC picked him up in conjunction with him being part of their whole 2 months 2 million thingy.

I've mostly just watched LFTVs PLO vids so far (they are v good), but _Fisherman (aka Evanski) has some some interesting looking videos as well that might be worth checking out before your sub runs out at least (only seen a couple so far).

I would say Blue Fire Poker or CardRunners.

Has anyone signed up to Deepstacks University? I was on their announcement list over the summer and then a few weeks ago I got a flash based email from Mike Matusow telling me I NEEDED TO JOIN, and there was alot of FINGER POINTING at me telling me how great the site was, etc..

I thought "wow, he cares! I AM terrible!".

So anyone join yet? How's the site?

Probably worth it if your a big fan of Liv Boeree since you can see her while she coach you.
