Hello everyone,

All users can now add videos. Try and remember to add to the correct category. For now that's General.

If you want to embed a video that's listed in the directory, click the video and copy and paste the bb code at the bottom into your post. DO NOT PREVIEW the post or it won't work.

We can include videos from the following sites:

1)Vimeo
2)Veoh
3)YouTube
4)DailyMotion
5)MegaVideo
5)Metacafe

Anyone interested in posting videos from their commercial site should contact Advertising Info.

It's not clear how this section will evolve. We'll do our best to adapt to your whims. This thread will be updated regularly with new information.

Please feel free to post questions and comments in this thread.

very cool.
I think you guys should post some rules, or guidelines for what kind of vids we can post.

Also, it seemes like anything can be posted? not just poker stuff?

Great addition to the site! I look forward to browsing this section.

Does anyone think there is merit in having a section with user added videos, kind of like when we post hand histories? It would be very easy for us to record a few hands and upload them here for advice...

we can and will be adding additional categories. there are only 2 at the moment which you can see on the right side of the directory.

also, all users can now add videos. try and remember to add to the correct category. for now that's General.

Everyone can now add a video to the library which is the first step in getting an embed code that you can use in a post. Once you are on that page, click the "Add video" link on the upper right side of the page. On the next page, leave the video title blank but set the directory to "general". It defaults to the pokerstrategy.com folder so please change it to general. Paste the youtube or other comparable site's video link into the video url field and click "load information". Scroll down and click "add video".

On the resulting screen toward the bottom you will see an embed code that you can paste into your posts.

Usual profanity, death, and nudity rules apply. Please don't make us infract/ban you.

You may post videos about topics other than poker, yes.

Someone create a thread with all of tuff fish's videos on Party Poker from Youtube. I'm too lazy to find and post them all but there's a lot of value there.

Unfortunately all the videos I posted got deleted. Apparently it is just a forum for PokerStrategy.com...which i guess is fine but why not just name it the PokerStrategy.com forum?

Anyway, it was a good idea in concept.

Dont worry BBV4L will try to get a X-Rated video forum one day.

Cool idea though.

Is this for people to post a few min of key hands they may have questions about?
