Hagbard is also a very good MTT reg.

Site is awesome, Casey's videos are a must watch. Spent the last few weeks watching videos from TPE.

Of the four sample videos, I like the second one by Hagbard Celine the best, with the equity/math analysis. He made the equity formula very confusing though, that I had to use a calculator to confirm that my numbers were the same as his.
With all the free information available online and in my unfinished poker books/magazines, I personally don't think paying hundreds of dollars a year for a training site or coach is good value. When I was a member of PokerXFactor, any time I had for poker was much better spent PLAYING as much as possible so my membership was wasted. The training videos I've seen are not bad, but I get much more $EV from doing equity analysis of key hands or reviewing sections from books such as "The Mathematics of Poker" which has a ONE-TIME cost of $30.

It's not bad but worse than the best Deuces Cracked, Cardrunners and Stoxpoker videos.
What do you guys think of the Bluefire poker videos?

95% of the population, myself included, cant begin to decipher TMOP. Training sites allow for people to learn visually, which for most is an ideal learning environment.
To say that playing and learning is better than reading or watching and learning implies someone has a relatively large "roll". You could go busto many times if you arent super self aware.

What do you guys think of the Bluefire poker videos? | This site is specifically designed for MTT, and is new.
What is promising about TPE is the lineup - they are relavent to the MTT game as it exists today.
Other than Pokerpwnage, I found the sites you listed above are geared more towards cash players, so relative comparisons arent really fair.

I have been a member of poker pwnage on and off for a year or two now, and been a member of many of the other ones...and I have to say Pwnage is probably my favorite and I get the most out of it...
That being said, I am doing a trial at Deepstacks with their poker Matrix..and I am really liking it. They put you in difficult decisions, give you the factors necessary, and give you choices...once you choose what you would do, they go through and explain each choice and why the particular one was the best choice for that situation...they then run the same situation with different variables..
They also have 5 different levels of training to help you grow. They have different aspects of training, Mtt, sng, basics, essentials..etc..that you can work your way through..
Wanna know what to do with middle pair in early position late game against lagtards? You can pick that one...
As long as you can get through (or remember not to choose) Mike Matusow's training, it is very good and it certainly puts the info forth in a way that I can understand the "why's".
Alex Outhred is a fantastic coach and set up the matrix really well IMO.

Just signed up with Pwnage last night actually, and watched one video so far. We will see how it goes...Hopefully my next bunch of posts are all in the "omg I made the final table" thread.
