u talking about the latest 2monts2million vid by krantz or something else ?
i see nolan just released a new series on 3betting too.

and my subscription ran out yesterday
debating getting another month but br wise prolly not too smart

 

[Debi]

yes

you signed up anywhere yet?

No - but should be by the end of today.

Gonna check several out and see which looks best for what I need.

 

[eNTy]

i dont believe dc is particularly heavy on mtt/sngs
pretty weak in fact i think

that is what you play right ?

Yea - I am strictly looking for MTT training. I only slight dabble in cash - no great dreams of becoming a 10 tabling cash grinder lol.

yeah actually looking at it now DC only really has like 15 MTT videos. Stox has like 120 and way more MTT coaches than I initially guessed. Matt Matros used to be the only guy but they have a few new guys doing quite a bit.

So stox does actually look like the better option of the two. Still not sure about PXF; their initial fee is $120 - HUGE - but they are almost compeltely isolated to MTT videos. Take a look, they have some free vids.

Thanks - I am watching one of them now. Do you know what their monthly fee is?

 

[Tammy]

...

I could watch that all day. rofl

 

[Debi]

Well after watching just one I know I will definitely join 1 of the 2 sites. I think it will be a great way for me to learn. Gonna watch a few more free ones before I head over to check Stox out.

The only thing I don't like so far is that it moves so fast sometimes I miss what happened or the bet size. But I get most of it.

 

[ChuckTs]

lol well you can always rewind the video

PXF is $120+$25/mnth

Stox is $28/mnth, discounts for 6mnth and 12mnth purchases.

Here's a good demo video of Matt Matros. Most/all of his other videos are either live play or reviewing tourneys he's played, but this one is pretty awesome and gives a good feel for how he thinks and teaches.

I know lol - but if it was just slightly slower I wouldn't have to keep doing that.

Am I supposed to be able to view that link above? Cause I can't.

 

[ChuckTs]

just go to stoxpoker.com (not logged in) and scroll through the free videos. It's one of those in there

 

[Tammy]

Hmmm...I might have to try out what Debi is doing. Like her, I have no aspirations to be a cash player. I really enjoy playing SNGs/MTTs but know that there are some things I could be doing differently.

 

[ChuckTs]

Well getting a subscription to any of those sites will help.

Watch as many videos as you can (especially the higher rated/more viewed ones), play as many tourneys as you can, start posting more (ahem, start posting) in the strategy forums, and post any tough or interesting hands you play or see in a video in HA. Guarantee it'll help your game
