Vito,

He is still with LeggoPoker although he is on break. He has been spamming the strategy forums for the last few weeks. Also, his cage is still up and availble for everyone to see.

Thanks,

Matt

I think it is Unprofessional to just to take a break for more than 2 months.

He is still sitting every day at the high stakes tables waiting for games, so he is playing poker. and you don't need to wake up in 8 AM every day and work 8 hours to make 1 video of 1 hour per month.

no offense but i feel you have 2 real high profile players at your site, and it is him and aejones, so to have only 1 of them active is not enough to charge like/more than other sites do, and they have more high profile players.

until now Sauce made only 3 videos in a period of 5 months, and it is not enough !
seems like you are using his name to attract people to join the site.

so please get him out of his "break" to make some videos, Thanks.

It is up to him how long he takes a break for and by no means is two months the time limit when "unprofessional" kicks in

He makes a lot more money playing poker than making videos. I can't aim him and say "Hey, I see you sitting at 200/400! Why aren't you making a video?"

We offer a very high quality product and have a lot of coaches that play very high stakes.
Aejones
Apathy
Bobbo
LuckyChewy
Seabeast
Straate
LeggoPoker offers a great value for the low to mid stakes 6 max player. Our content is concentrated to 6 max NLHE and feel that that is very valuable since we have no "filler" videos.

until now Sauce made only 3 videos in a period of 5 months, and it is not enough !

I agree, it is not enough. I hope he decides to make more soon, although it is up to him.

seems like you are using his name to attract people to join the site.

We do offer the only three videos he has ever made.

so please get him out of his "break" to make some videos, Thanks.

I assure you we want nothing more than for him to make videos. It is up to him and he has to decide what is right for him at this time in his life.

I hope you understand Leggo's position a little better now. We want you to be happy. We want Sauce to make videos. We are doing everything we can to make those two things happen. If you want to talk more about it I can answer any questions you have here or on aim / msn. LeggoPoker is very concerned you are happy and getting a good value as a member.

Thanks,

Matt

to elaborate::: I make 3+ times as much money playing poker as making a video. I really don't enjoy the process of making videos, and it certainly helps my opponents play better against me.

however, I do enjoy helping people learn about poker, a game all of the poker community has helped me get very good at, through free sharing of info through forums, blogs, videos, and conversations.

So keep in mind Leggo for me is different from what it is to the ppl playing SSNL and MSNL: its a conscious choice to donate my time to make games tougher for me to play in in the future. Thats why im slightly critical when ppl drop in to holler at me for not making more videos. My personal preference is to make posts in the forums, its a quick time investment and thats how i learned to play well. i also answer every pm i get on leggo, so if u want to know something try that

Yeah, claiming that sauce and aejones are the only "high profile" players is completely untrue if you ever open up stars or ftp lobby, you see straate, greg or chewy at the highest stakes hu and 6max games all the time.

and seeing as you are only playing 2/4 now, i don't see how all the leggo coaches playing 5/10 and 10/20 making videos can't help you tremendously.

steel108 · 12-05-2008, 10:30 PM

My favorite videos are all by straate; #2 is MYNAMEISGREG and aejones.

peterpjames · 12-07-2008, 12:30 AM

Any vids by sauce are obv welcome and the ones he posted were awesome. But really, there's so much value each month, you really can't complain. Leggo ftw.

Wrong!
Some time before joining Leggo Sauce123 made a vid for FlopTurnRiver forum where he used to post regularly:
http://www.flopturnriver.com/poker-v...deo-NHC023.php
Very good vid and Ben is just sick ... and I was really thinking of paying full subscription - first and foremost to learn from this mastermind, but it turned out he is not really regular 'producer' and now I'm kinda disappointed like ^^OP.

Only high stakes videos he has ever made then. Thank you for correcting my error.

sauce --

you say your videos make your opponents play better against you. how does that affect you any more than other HS video producers?

you also say it's about the money, but are you even considering the fact that you can make a solid, guaranteed income producing videos at 400-1000NL? these are limits you can beat easily, with much less statistical variance and far smaller monetary swings, and you get paid to do it!

finally, let's be honest; you're not "donating" your time when you get paid. don't ge me wrong, i appreciate your contributions to the forums, but i think your videos are among the best on the net and i'd like to see more.

Where did he say it affected him MORE? Not everyone has the same view on how videos effect games, not everyone wants to lower their winrate for the sake of guaranteed money, etc etc. you can't apply your sensibilities to him and have it mean anything.
