Hi. Pokerpeeps,

Can anyone recommend a good site/download to improve my poker strategy? I feel like I'm not improving my game anymore...

    Hey Smiley,

    I've always found YouTube a great free resource for Poker strat/advice. Just type whatever variant you are looking for (NL,PLO,cash,STT,MTT) into the search box and take your pick from the many videos available. I like the sweat sessions where you watch a pro play a short session and explain their thinking throughout each hand.

    There ARE some pretty rubbishy ones but so long as you take the time to sort the wheat from the chaff I think you'll pick up some help towards improving your game.

    Good luck.

    Thanks Spanky,

    I'll get on to Youtube and reap the benefits. Before now I was just doing the usual google search but wasn't sure which site to go on.

    Cheers

    To continue the YT theme - search for Daniel Negreanu. He has a series of about 30 videos, each of which is about 3 minutes long and contains a separate strategy. I thought these were pretty good value for the time investment.

    Good morning Smileychop.
    A good and cheap way 2 improve your poker skills would be 2 take part in the DEEPSTACK @2,20 FOR £2.20.
    A very friendly game with some really good players taking part, also some Sky presenters and Sky pros sometimes take part. Look forward 2 seeing you on the table.
    Good luck with your poker.
    All the best

    give it 2 weeks and i can see this famous £2.20 deepstack being a £10k guarentee with all the advertising you give it, lol. in all seriousness though hes looking for a some help with strategy and as good as this deepstack sounds its not exactly going to help him fix leaks in his game etc.

    We need more people like Rainman on this forum. What a guy.

    Instead we/I get stuck with complete to$$ers in BBV.

    I'll send u a pm with a link to free books as well. I'll send it later on when I'm on laptop-pm function doesn't work on iPhones :(

    Search out 'Run it up' by Jason Somerville on Youtube.

    Very entertaining and packed with high quality STT/cash strategy advice. You won't find better for free.

    Or you could search for 'You Make Me Feel (Mighty Real)' by Jimmy Somerville. Very entertaining and packed with average quality dance beats.

    Ha, quality. I think I might just do that now. I like to think that all the guys looking serious with their hoodies and big headphones on at live events are secretly listening to Jimmy Somerville.

    Thanks for the help everyone,

    I'm sure to find something amongst your suggestions that will kick start my brain into bettering my game... and if all else fails, at least I would have gotten in some quality Jimmy Somerville tracks. I'll start off with Yazoo and work up to The Communards. ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh baby!

    Cheers all

    The Run It Up series is easily the most entertaining set of poker vids I have watched. Jason Somerville has quite a talent for producing some great content and not just all about strategy. The esfandiari episode where they do an 18k flip is legendary
