A couple of simple suggestions I had to improve videos

I love this site and all the content but a couple of things that will make me enjoy it more,

– Show number of big blinds on your HUD whenever possible (constantly doing the math on every stack takes longer to watch the video and most of the time the coach has a hud up anyway)

-Turn the sound off on pokertracker or put earphones in when your recording (the clicking through hand historys sometimes has a beep every 2 seconds and why have it on when you can have it off?)

-I’d love to see a video series where we couldn’t see heros hand. This is the best way to work on your own range and perceived range and stops coach or student autopiloting through. Then show the hand at the end and see if its that easy to pick your own range apart

– A “continue watching from where you left off” before option. That might be harder for the site to add anytime soon but just an idea.

 

Thanks guys –  I don’t want to come off as I’m complaining. The site does A LOT of things very well but this is the suggestion section, not the compliment section – just trying to help 😀

Thanks for the suggestions. Number 2 is particularly helpful, I feel like there’s a lot of clicking in my videos sometimes.

I think I saw someone mention somewhere that Daryl Jace has actually done a video series with hole cards hidden – regardless of this, it’s on my agenda to do a ‘blind HH review’ sometime in future, so thanks for reminding me.

What if you stack your monitors and split the hand history window between the two monitors? If you only record the top monitor, then you can see the hand but we can’t.

I say this with love about Daryl’s videos: It’s the best when the clicking bothers him, because then he comments on it, and that makes up for any annoyance I would have about it 🙂

Stacking monitors is a pretty logistically complicated thing to do, having them side by side is infinitely more practical!

Besides, I think the whole point of doing a blind HH review isn’t so that it can be a case of “hey, guess what hand I have here”. It’s so that we can discuss the dynamics of a hand without letting the knowledge we have about what our hand is influence the discussion. So I actually think it’s very important that the coach doing the review doesn’t know what our hand is.
