Latest CTS vid

The 6 table 5/10 NLHE 6max vid is awesome. I think it's the best one I saw so far. It's just so sick informative, like how to deal with shortstackers/squeezing/getting people on tilt. Just awesome.

It's one 2 hour session that he's splitting up in 3 pieces. The first one got up at 9 may, so for those who haven't watched it yet, I strongly urge you to do so.

am i the only one who hates it when a video comes out teaching people to get good at poker?

i hate it and love it, and just hope that most people are too stupid to get it

I love it and I get inspired by Cole South's awesomeness

nope

didnt we all get a lot of help from other people to accelerate our poker learning from when we were first trying to improve a lot, in some way or another? like advice from better players or lurking forums reading hand discussion posts of better players. I know me and teej gained a ton of amazingly valuable info and insight from railing/speaking to twistedecho and lurking 2+2 sng/ssnl/msnl forums when we started.

to accept that sort of help with open arms when you most need it, then once youve gotten good enough to make a living to then start speaking out against it and not wanting players that are earlier in their poker progression in the same place you once were to get the same help and enlightenment you once enjoyed, seems pretty cowardly and unreasonable.

totally agree with ket. and ftw that vid was def one of the best ones i've seen, watching cts is just art

and that's the standard response from someone who is now making these videos, directly contradicting your own viewpoint on the subject from a few weeks ago when you weren't making them.

uh what? plz find any post of mine where i was speaking out against coaching/cardrunners

what's your motivation, helping people? give me a break, when's the last time you posted anything in hand discussion? at least be honest.

i still <3 u though

I think you're very out of line here Yugless.

BATTLE OF THE GREEN STARS!

I also thought Ket said something about how it doesn't make sense to teach people how to get better at poker.. But it's very possible I'm just confusing him with someone else who was in that debate, and he might very well have been on the other side hehe. So that's probably where the confusion comes from.

However, regardless of this, he does post in hand discussion

EDIT: Oh and Ket has for sure always been one of the people telling new players to get cardrunners.

ya i probably am. i apologize to ket, i just dont want to see my profession die because everyone has access to things it took me a long time to learn. i just have to keep getting better to keep up i suppose.

Why they dont release anything good for ages and when I cancel the membership they make a CTS vid ...

Yeah Ket you did say something like that if I remember correctly that it's not a big deal anything you've always given some help nonetheless, I'm gonna go watch your vid on CR, I'm guessing that your first?

cardrunners is just too expensive for me to justify =/

I remember Ket saying something about CR too when it really exploded... but whatever, he definitely didn't mean it in an assholish ungrateful way.

Back on topic I thought the second part just came out (and was the reason for this thread) so damn you Twisted for getting my hopes up

the videos only make the midstakes game harder

Fast question :

Is it wise to join cardrunners with 200$ br? :C
