The TPE team is hard at work not just cranking out new videos, but thinking of innovative ways to train you to become better tournament players. We welcome and appreciate your feedback.
No suggestion is a bad suggestion. If you’re ever surfing the site and something comes to you that you wish a training site would do, post it here please. And if you don’t want to make it public, feel free to PM me.
my only suggestion that I would have after watching two videos is that sometimes bigdogpckt5’s (not trying to call you out in any way shape or form) looks back at his cards after he has folded and says something to the affect of “I would have made the nuts if I played my XX” or that fold would have been good for my hand…etc etc.
I just don’t think its a good idea because of people trying to learn might look at it as they should play those not so good hands because they have a chance at hitting such a flop.
Just a minor suggestion, no biggie. Love the videos though, I’ve watched both live sweat’s and thought they were great. Looking forward to part 2 of the second live sweat.

The only problem i have had so far is the volume, it is so low that i have to use headphones to hear it on my laptop which really sucks. and if its not too low then theres usually a really annoying echo, def needs to be fixed.
Was this a problem on one particular video? Or on all? They sound good on my laptop only turned half way up, but I suppose everyones set up isa little different.

It may just be my laptop, i just got it so not real sure what the problem is. but the volume was a lil low on most i have watched but the echo was only on a couple
I would like to be able to organize or mark videos that have been watched vs/the have nots. Not sure how it would work but as the number of videos grow, I find myself wondering which ones I have already viewed. I am also having some volume issues – I find myself plugging the laptop into stereo.. Thank you
big dog said he was going to turn up his mic, on the future videos cheche and bigb23. it was brought to their attention in the thread
/forum/video-discussions/sticking-it-to-the-man-part-1-sound-concernproblems-and-also-quality-over-quanty/#p1257
yeah i was with you chech,, previously i had to turn up the volume really loud on my computer speakers, but now in the future it shouldn’t be a problem i think.
Don’t like firing out 6 vids in a row by the same person. It doesn’t affect me right now because I still have other vids to watch, but if I was up to date i’d want more variety. Plus it must be tough putting so much pressure on the vid producer to make them all in a row. My 2c.
anyone know if there if it is possible to view all of the comments a person had posted? You can view all of the posts u started but thats it . On pocket fives in a players profile page it shows how many comments you post on the site. You just click on the number and u see all of the posts you made, instead of tryiing to search through the forums the long way.
Let me run some diagnostics with our host to see if these are isolated occurances or widespread. I notice some slower pockets as well but can't pinpoint if it's the site or my connection since it's not consistent.
Having a lot of members that force us into bigger servers is not a bad thing.

Theory Thursday suggestions:
Squeeze Spots – how to identify them and when to use them (stack sizes needed, etc.)
Two Barrel Bluffing – Building off the c-betting vid, what board textures and opponents to fire a second shell against.
Check Raising – When and why to use it
Ok that's all I've got for now.

Guys I always have to download my videos. On other sites I can just stream them. Is this not possible on tpe?
You can just stream by clicking the play arrow in the browser. Don't click on either of the download links. Let me know if you have problems with this. Thanks – RFB
hmmm not quite sure why this is happening for you. The videos should play in browser and this is the first report that I've heard of it not working. Unfortunately I am not going to be near my computer this weekend but maybe we can figure out a way to talk on Monday so I can help you figure out why it's not loading in your browser?
would be nice if you could fix the video player so we can skip to w/e part we want without having to wait till its downloaded, for example yesterday i was watching some live sweat video, and didnt have time to finish the whole video, now today i wanted to finish it and had to wait a little bit till 30mins of video loads up, yeh my internet is pretty bad but still would be nice if there was such option

just download the whole video to your desktop if you want to do this imo.
might do that or just try to manage my time a little better to be able to watch it fully :), also im thinking it would be great if u added a subforum called Poker goals and challenges like on 2p2, its very motivating seeing ppl trying hard to accomplish their goals, especially from tpe members it would be twice as fun
One thing that might be fun would be a tpe league with weeky or monthly sngs on one of the major sites. The quality of play will likely be better than average for comparable stakes. You could throw in premiums like hand hx reviews, coaching or gear if you want to promote it a bit more. I play in some pokercast league games, and they are generally a good time. Something like $5-10 buy in would probably get a decent showing. Thanks for your efforts!

I sure hope a league is formed FTP possibly…
I also think these prize ideas are great ideas.
What about a referral program? If one exists how can I get some of my poker friends on board (and maybe help you by helping me ya know wink wink)?
Great site guys! Watched the PCA sat video, but would definitely like to see some more sat videos. Won myself a nice live event package recently, will surely play more satellites from now on. Would like to see or hear your strategy on playing live event satellites which pay more than just the first place.
Thanks and keep up the good work !!
Hey
I think it would be cool if the pros posted interesting hands on the forums where they make a big call or bluff etc.I think if they followed the same format as this hand …..ed-644631/ where they explain each street and why they did what they did it would be intersting and would help all the members learn the thought process behind their play etc.
Thanks
what if a thread was created for players to post their entire HH from a specific mtt into a replayer and allow the community to watch, analyze, learn, etc. I know it could get clogged up real fast with too many HH so maybe limit 1 HH per month per user maybe?
I know it would benefit my game if I can post a HH into a replayer and get feedback. I know there are study groups out there as well as pros reviewing a members HH but this would be smack on the forum and everyone from members to pros can help each other out instantly.
thoughts?

A very interesting idea.
Members have the ability to post videos on TPE. There is plenty of free software out there to record your screen. Also, bennymacca leads a member HH group, which sounds perfect for you, members discuss HH from each other. You can contact bennymacca for more information.

well i am doing a pretty horrible job at leading a group 😀
definitely should get it started up soon though

video suggestion – theory video on how to stick to MTTs and avoid loading up zoom poker tables 😀
My suggestions may not be new as I didn’t read all the posts here, but mainly I notice that sometimes sound quality is not clear. Some videos have great quality while others are not as good. Of course everything is still audible. Seems like its pretty laid back how things are done (not complaing b/c I’m still able to learn).
What would be interesting is to have a video where pros talk about the most difficult types of players and situations for them and how they overcame difficulties in their game, but I guess there are so many possibilities that it would be hard to specifically focus on that.
I’m sure I’ll have some other better ideas so I’ll post if I think of any.

Hey people,
Just thought of some ideas for future theory videos:
1. Squeeze plays and other special, possibly out of the ordinary and non-obvious (at least to me) situation spots to accumulate chips
2. Being in touch with your gut, instincts and following through on it.
Not sure of eloquent ways to phrase these things but maybe there would be interest in these topics?
June 2, 2012
Here are some more video ideas:
1. Bluff detecting and how to react
You mentioned making the videos more interactive by having quizzes. I think this is a great idea. You should force people to think for themselves to see if they are learning. I think its horrible to have videos where opponents hole cards are exposed, btw. You could remake previous theory videos to make them more interactive and incorporate quizzes where there is a scenario and people are given time to determine what they would do before the pros say what they would do. Just my 2 cents.

hey guys,
I joined you a few days ago and I really think that the money is worth it till now. But I would like to see more 180 men content. The videos of Hitthepanda were extremely helpful to my game, but cougars seemed to be a bit old-fashioned with regard to his playstyle.
I would like to see the 3,5$Rs and the 15$s in a live training or just a HH review. Would be awesome!
What do you think about this idea?
greetings and good luck all
October 6, 2010
more 180s stuff would be good, the MTTSNG stuff is a big old now
October 6, 2010
just a quick one – the bio info for bigdog in the pros section is pretty outdated now, mentions of absolute poker should probably be removed, and of course no mention of the fact that he beasted a few millys since then 😀
