[Closed] What do you want in a video?

It sounds great for me. I like the idea about "video serial". It would be much better than solo video.

In fact I like all You mentioned here ♦

Pornography would be good.........thanx ♦

Come on man. Be serious. The guy is offering something new to PokerStrategy and All you have to say is porn?

Anyway. For the topic:

I think it's a really good idea and I would definitly watch those videos. I only played about 7-8k hands of FL so far, so I think I could be described as beginner.

I think my preflop-play is more or less as it should be. So topics I would like are topics like tableselections (which I'm trying out atm), odds and outs, postflop play, adjusting to opponents. That's what I can think of, off the top of my head. I'll get back with more later.

What's your skype btw?

Cheers,
Kimber88

Never ever joke about porn.......... ♦

Porn would get lots of views, so I agree!

Perhaps you can talk a lot about different opponents on the limits from 0.5/1-3/6 or something.

Ok cool keep the ideas coming guys. Lol @ andyb43 ♦

And my skype is dakrynveii.

I don't really like a massive amount of 'series' vids on the beginners part. After all, for that level abc-poker is all it takes, so I don't see much use for a 5+ vid series.

Topics I would think of
- recognizing situation and doing the appropriate actions
- using a hud and adjusting play to their ranges
- in depth video (pauzing video on every interesting hand, talking about possible action and why you should or shouldn't do them)
- random PS-beginner makes a video, you give comment afterwards.

The beginner series would just be the first & only one for beginners, but the first couple of episodes would be for COMPLETE beginners and a kind of "watch this first" kind of thing so they are fully equipped to take on the tables and I'd try and eliminate rookie mistakes before they even start playing and it'd also be something for them to refer back to if they remembered me talking about a specific topic.

Basically it would probably be 4-5 episodes with only the first 1-2 being super beginner stuff, then the others early bronze theory leading up to silver or something. So it isn't like 47 videos for the beginner to watch but just 1 or 2 max to prepare them for pwning the micro limits.

Thanks so much for your feedback g1lius ♦

Other things could include coaching a new player who asks a lot of questions which would be relevant to every new FL player and getting him to play live while I watch or something similar (yeah, I know it's pretty much a ripoff of dc).

What about a title? Microlimit Grinder sounds good. ♦

Really nice idea Terrorblade... and I trust the exams went well

Videos that mirror and support the articles. Post flop articles like playing overcards on the flop, evaluating draws, estimating hand equity would all benefit from some good video examples and analysis IMO.

Maybe it is possible to use a background image with an at least half naked female.

I would like to see in the vidoes how after identifying the oppenents playing style you change your own play to fit theirs, basically saying when and why your playing a different approach to the normal line in both pre and postflop situations.

Another suggestion would be to make 2 vids for each limit, one of you playing and a review of another player who regularily playes that limit so you can see how to and how not to play.

Hey dude, not sure whether this thread is still going and if you're still making vids, so yeah, include or disregard the following....:
I think u mentioned it in one of your earlier videos, but i'm not sure if you got round to including it yet, so i'd suggest a bit about how and when to play second pair. That's where i'm personally still a bit unsure. Dunno about you guys.....
Definetly a nice idea tho, cheers

Yeah, yeah...dc...you have stolen this idea from me! Admit it! ♦

I'm looking forward to a 'going through the levels series like this'!

Woud be nice to emphasize on the differences between the levels and the adjustment you'll have to make.
But I recon you already thought about this ♦

Maybe this would be nice too:
If somewhere in between you'd make a special video that's about spotting leaks using software like Holdem Manager or Elephant (don't know what elephant is capable of). After you've played enough hands to analyse your play. So you can explain ways to find out in which situations you're loosing to much money and why. Don't know if this works, cause of course you need to have leaks :). But just an idea..

Anyway, you got my vote!

O, and maybe you can put some porn in there too

[10/20/2008 4:02:42 AM] Tribun says: make this series
[10/20/2008 4:02:44 AM] Tribun says:

No to Tribun.

Yes to porn.

I like everyones ideas! I don't have/know how to use Holdem Manager though(could learn though)!

I'm going to start making them soon, you'll see several of them before christmas, it's just right now I might be able to make that 750$ PS bonus thing (expires end of november), if so I need to focus on that, if not I can start making the vids.
