What's Your Edge
Today I made a very different video than I have in the past. I am unsure how popular it will be as it’s not of me playing but of me analyzing a hand in a PowerPoint presentation. It actually took way longer to create than my normal videos. I would love feedback on the video because it gives a great opportunity to create something different. I am fearful that most people will find it boring and not as good as my other videos. I really think I discuss some very important issues and generally focus on how I analyze a hand away from the table. I usually don't have the opportunity to walk through a hand slowly because the action at the tables moves very quickly.
I am in Vegas for Poker After Dark, which I am very excited to play in. I heard there is a special table line up so I think the show will be very interesting. I will give a trip report next week.

I'm also excited for the video. =) It's a good thing that you try to come up with new ideas!

why would anyone really care about a poker video that you would make? you havn't logged a online session in forever. what insight do you even still have. your scared to step up and play...just admit that you want to throw up just thinking about playing online poker and then I'll know your being truthful. Admit it Brian, you are very lucky you joined cardrunners b/c there would be no other source of income for you.
Play some sessions and then you may have some people care again.

BT is playing poker... you guys must have missed the part in the blog that says, "I am in Vegas for Poker After Dark"... last i heard they play poker in Poker After Dark....... I don't care how much he plays. I think it's great he's trying to add more value to my CR membership by testing a new vid format.

the simple fact that someone would make those kind of hurtful, ignorant comments absolutely shocks me. brian is without a doubt one of the best poker players and poker minds in the world and to say otherwise is completely ridiculous.
he is scared to play online poker? wow, i mean, if i'm not being leveled here i am speechless. the man is one of the most successful online players in history and certainly didn't achieve that status by not playing or being scared of anyone. that's like saying lebron is afraid to play pick-up ball at the Y.

"Play some sessions and then you may have some people care again."
You care so little that you take time to watch his video, read his blog, and even leave a comment.

jkipfer`s comment is hands down the most intelligent comment I heard in a loooong time.
LOL

I think the video was very good. To hear your method of how you break down a hand is very helpful.
As far as the one rude comment from someone who I can't even remember thier name. Well the internet and poker will never run out of chumps.

I think this video is a great idea and the type of video I was looking forward too.
Maybe future videos could include topics such as:
- making adjustments to the table, to your image etc
- 3 betting /4 betting and when to 3 bet/4 bet light based on table dynamics your image - when you stop giving an opponent credit for a hand (Brian I notice in your vids you'll get 3 bet by the same guy a couple of times but still be like "there is no reason to think he is getting out of line") etc (an area I struggle with)
- Bluffing- good spots to bluff raise, floating etc
- any others you can think of.
I think these powerpoint with hands interspersed videos to demonstrate the concepts would really help my game.
I know these would take more time to do but they would be good.

i like the vid brian, i would also be interested in hearing you discuss bankroll management in a detailed video such as this one. I remember you posted an aggressive bankroll strategy on 2+2 and it seemed pretty interesting. Also, in a recent video where u were sweating someones session, you suggested they take a shot at 1/2 with 15 buy ins. Maybee you could talk about varaince and mathematical probabilities of a good player (10bbs/100 or whatev) goin broke or building a substantial bank roll in a given number of hands. It would also be cool to hear about how fast you became loaded and your rise to fame, and maybee an f all the haters at the end. this would make a sweet vid

I'm going to stop playing on ftp because they won't give me rakeback so I deposited 500 on ultimate bet a couple weeks ago and just started playing 50nl the other day with it. It's going well so far but really boring playing 50nl when i'm used to 200nl. The players are absolutely horrible on ub though up to 3/6 so it should be a good money making opportunity despite their software sucking.
OH YEAH...DO NOT WATCH INDIANA JONES...ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE!!!!! waste of life for sure
