This thread reminds me that I need to watch more videos. Even with my laziness the $25/month and signup fee is well worth it. Great site IMO.

just a question. There are no way to join 2 guys and both use the same account right?

just to be sure that's not possible. at least for me 150$ is too much, i would pay the 25 without any problem, 150$ is just too much right now. I guess i need to wait [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

I'm fairly sure you're referring to sharing an account. I'm pretty certain they use IP logging to attempt to detect those things. It's worth the fee but if it's too much for you right now it's also worth waiting for.

I had a significant increase in my results after joining and love studying the contrasting styles of guys like Rizen/below who are both so awesome and yet play so different.

If you have the money this is an excellent investment.

The signup fee is a problem for me. At the time I was a member they only had Bax and Sheets vids. I watched most of them, and found they didn't update that much so decided to drop the membership after 2 mths. Now that they have Rizen vids, belowabove, etc... I'd be interested in joining again, but I'm not about to fork out another signup fee. Sry.

bumping an old thread.

are the videos able to be downloaded and watched or only streamed online?

If I am able to download them - is there protection the same as CR vid's?

Rizen

Rizen's videos alone are worth the fee. He's a phenomenal teacher who explains, not just his own moves, but also what's going on at the table when he's not in the hand. Also love to listen to his calm voice. Hell, I'd marry him if it wasn't for the fact that he's already married and I'm straight...

Below's videos seem great too... And just watching other 2+2ers HH's in the replayer is also nice learning. Without the explanation, you have to come up with your own conclusions on why he/she made that move.

Are the tutorials aimed at a minimum level? The reason for asking is that I play only $5 & $10 SNGs & MTTs, and I'm worried the target audience is for higher buyins where some of the strategies may be difference than in the donkfests I play in.

I am a non-paying subscriber at the moment and have used it to watch HH replays from other players. I must admit, it is impressive.

MAF,

it depends, but I really think you'll get good use out of the videos even if you don't play at higher levels. I think Rizen especially does a tremendous job at explaining his thought process in a careful and very understandable way. Very pedagogical.

Personally I prefer his live videos since he can get a bit long-winded if you've already got what he's talking about...but for a lot of subscribers, this is probably not true at all. I think his videos are the best, but all the other pros are very good as well.
