as your site is still small, you are in an unique spot to release a video series designed for this. well to start this off,,

one of the selling spots for stoxpoker was its no limit basic and intermediate no limit course, and its limit course, and so forth.

there never was a sit and go video series course released which doesn’t matter much to the focus of this mtt site,, but there was also no MTT COURSE SITE.

you can begin building now over time,, it would be a differnt then say your theory video series, or your live sweats, you can even begin working on it in secret then when you do release it  you have the first five video series in it released giving the people something to work with as you continue on with the course.

you can also tout it as one of your main selling assets “the only site with a mtt course designed to take you from basic beginner to expert pro”

 

I got some ideas for this but i am in the middle of daily dollar i come back after to post more

ok i only made five bucks in the daily dollar (6.50 busted out 176 place).  that is I think a personal high woot , but back to the course idea.

when i was trying to learn guitar ,steve kaufman made an flatpicking video , then he made a beginner video for the basics needed for that,, and an advanced video for after that.

 

so instead of starting at the total beginning ,  i would think a good meat and bones course then you can work on an intermediate and advance course and later on add in the fundamental course aka homespune tapes had a tape series focused on just bar chords and one on base runs.

 

let see ten topics off the top of my head,

1. stack size and how to keep an eye on it so you are never shortstacked, with the big question is it better to wiat til you have hand after you itm or push randomly with 79 suited from say hijack.  i know there was the video with the 10 7 suited 3 m right at the beginning. 

tonight instead of pushing i waited til i moved up in the money .50 more cents (yay) and in doing so i picked up pocket nines with dead m zone of 2 i think and pushed got 2 callers and held up and made it to 5 m or was it six.

2. i notice a lot of the advice here is push with 20 bbs or less, which  200/400 50 bbs  is 8000 , however it is 7.6 m or there abouts which is 2 m more then the 5 m of pushing range of harington.  as this is stack base i think that would be the second requirement. 

why it is better pushing with 20 bbs then wait for 10 bbs before the antes ?  20 bbs in a short stack tourney would put us about say .. 1200 with 30/60 blinds  so pretty within the first half hour of a regular 1500 tourney we should be pushing at 1200 in a do or die fashion with a good hand , jacks or better , ace king or better right .  so this should be examined in more detail, i would suggest why you the coaches think the 10 blind rule, 5 m rule was made in the first palce and why pros started to push past these rules. (the only real basis i have for this arnold snyder 20 bb , 30 bbs rule with antes )

3. there is no difference between early stages , middle and late stages in truth !! (or false as you can help us differenante the differnces).

tonight when i donked off after it got deep stack (i was still in push or fold mode though i had a 11m and pushed over a big raise with nines and ran into jacks )  i realized in thinking about it there was no differnce .. i wasn’t deep stacked enough so the gap concept had to apply , nor was i short enough that it was an easy call, or shove.   so as i layed on my bed thinking , once you have a good m of 15 or more, you can then play 3 x raises or 40 blinds, you can call raises make your standard raise. 

so besides our stack size once we get to 40 bbs , 15 m,, we can play the standard game til then we are simply in the push mode

4. the grey zone,, i think due to the 20 bb rule the site is teaching when the m zone comes around there is a grey zone or in harington book it was the yellow zone where we can no longer play suited conenctors, just high cards and play them aggressively 

 

fundamental blocks

1. starting hand according to your stack size, (therefore it will be universala and not divded like other sites by early, middle, or late stages)

a short stack is short, a medium stack is medium , according to the blinds and then mzone.

2. pot odds, a video where pot odds is examined in the early stages, middle, and late stages

3. pot part 2 taking your stack size into the equation

 

umm that is how i can think off,, but if you guys start to develop a course like this and better, with not just theory but also theory in pratice, the focus i am sure lots more will flock to the site.

thanks for the post.  We are gathering all of this feedback for our internal discussions of how to take MTT training to the next level. It may be sequenced courses, or it may be something completely different.  Right now our central focus is learning from you guys before we make any decisions.
