Giving us a verbal recap of every action and then who's hit what or got what ever draw on every street... after we've just watched it twice just irks me.
I like the detail you go into, but these details feel unnecessary. (...)
I don't agree with this post, but will comment on the details - it's a different kind of problem with them.
You mess up quite a bit of details, most recent I've noticed was "Will Kassouf psyches out another victim" or so (referring to other guy having called a PFR when it was a limped pot). I've watched at least half of the series Poker Hands, and there have been several episodes where there are significant mistakes in either preflop action or otherwise. This ruins the hand analysis a whole lot when talking about ranges for the given actions, when the actions are wrong (or somehow wrongfully change between segments, and of course the ranges you're talking about are thereby wrong as well).
Can only suggest you use some kind of check list with the basic action - and go over it before you record each clip (or write the script). I think there's been around 5 instances where I go like "What? That's not right" - and it takes away a bit of credibility in hand analysis, when it seems you don't remember how the hand went. I think it's really important to get the facts right, especially for the ones who watch it for educational purposes as well.
It's absolutely entertaining and you're very watchable. Good luck!
