hard knocks in chewable form."

Mostly, I liked it. It is above average in both content and production
quality. It is geared toward the intermediate player with some tips for
the advanced player, and the best short-cut on figuring pot odds I
have seen.

Note- it is not a real tournament- but as far as an instructional video
I'm okay with that but you should be aware of that before you buy it. It
is a scripted final table with six players-three actors, boxing announcer
Michael Buffer's brother Bruce Buffer, Chris Ferguson and Phil Gordon.
They used inexpensive generic quality non denominated chips which sound
cheap every time they are thrown into the pots. It's a little bit
"Hollywood"( I knew exactly when the "young gun" was going to be eliminated
on the flop of the hand he went broke on) but again it's an instructional
video.

What irritated me: the "young gun" player is wearing a hat with the logo
"Let's Get Ready to Rumble" (the catch phrase made famous by Michael Buffer
in championship boxing), the background is literally inundated with
"Expert Insight" posters and large screen monitors with that logo
( the company that produced the DVD), and they insert the "Full Tilt"
television commercials into the tournament broadcast four times. So essentially
it is a commercial for Expert Insight and Full Tilt Poker disguised as a
poker tournament video. I still gave it four stars because the tutorial value
for beginner to intermediate players is above average. I personally buy and
watch DVD's so I won't have to watch commercials but that is really just a
personal issue. Overall good quality.

This is a teaching DVD as opposed to a live action one; a contrived simulation
of a final table in which Gordon addresses viewers as he plays. The exercise
certainly helps one understand how to play at the final table of a No Limit
Hold `Em tournament. Of course, it expounds on a good deal more than that. Phil
goes through many of the poker rules and concepts here which are also found in
his Little Green Book, but the video does a fine job illustrating his points
independently. He doesn't show you the hole cards of the other players which
is helpful because it forces viewers to think along with him, and go through
the decision making of a professional.

Overall, this DVD is sound and you'll certainly get more out of it than what's
in a random WPT video. Some of the lessons like, "don't play dominated hands,"
are well-developed. It's a good teaching tool and it's always nice to see Chris
Ferguson on television in any capacity-even if he's essentially acting. The Butch,
"internet punk," character is overdone but amusing. The only annoying thing here
are the commercial breaks for Full Tilt Poker. Personally, I think it's dirty pool
to subject us to those after we paid in advance for a product; although, I admit
the one with Howard Lederer was witty.
