glgl (sry couldnt get the vids done for ya :rolleyes:). Andys videos will be funny. A coup getting soren and ozzy too, good work.

1 tiny question about the site name - should it not be pokerswot.com or are you going to market it as a Poker Swat Team? Or is it just pedantry either way lol

Tight Ted

I can't understand why any poker training site with such an Irish influence wouldn't include high stakes videos by DBC2008.

Did he demand too much cash or did you just feel that he plays too high stakes and his videos would be irrelevant to small/mid stakes player?

:pac::pac::pac::pac:

The world has changed a lot post talking sh1te on the internet.
Bubble > burst.

thedini

explain?

hotspur

Don't let him derail the thread, ignore / delete.

RoadSweeper

is there a launch date set?

ianmc38

Well done. Fantastic lineup, especially Ozzy and Traheho.

T-b0n3

Looks good. I' definitely interested. Best of luck.

HiCloy

Impressive line up, best of luck with it

carfax

Concentrating on PLO is a good move imo, I think this will do really well.....Never knew that there were other training sites around.

Lafortezza

Is it pokerswat or pokerswot? Cos one doesn't make any sense.
Good luck with it anyway!

Alec Torelli just comes across as a total lagtard to me.

tipp86

Whats the general membership fee for these training sites??

cooker3

around 15-20 per month

shoutman

Good luck with this one lads.

As said above I think concentrating on PLO is very good, as it seems to me that most of the other training sites are either geared towards 6 max/hu nl hold em (leggo) or try to do everything (Cardrunners)

meathman 007

Thanks for all the goodwill, ill try an answer a few of the questions...

Hey Dan, Andys videos are great - the first video he did, he made a live recording of the Party Poker 300k guaranteed and won it. Yes its Swat, ingenius marketing ploy:cool:

:pac::pac::pac::pac:

He demanded 10% equity in the business, 10k per video and unlimited royalties... i was willing to push the boat out for him, but not that far

thx Ian, Ozzy is doing PLO and NL videos for the site, has 2 PLO ready for launch and will be starting NL videos next month. Traheho has 3 videos for launch and did 2 really good heads up ones at 3/6 and 10/20

Yea PLO is our main focus, we be starting out with a least 10 per month but ill be pushing to increase that within the next month or two

Hey we designed 3 different membership levels relative to the stakes each player plays and their bankroll:

Level 1:

Monthly Fee: €8.99/$13.99
Signup Fee: €14.99/$23.99

Level 2:

Monthly Fee: €12.99/$19.99
Signup Fee: €24.99/$39.99

Level 3:

Monthly Fee: €15.99/$24.99
Signup Fee: €31.99/$49.99


Every video series is designed at either Beginners, Intermediate or Advanced players and there is a simple filter to find the level of video you want to watch.

Will there be any MTT strategy vids/content?

Hey, yes there will be at least 10 MTT videos for the launch. We have some quality MTT coaches in Soren Kongsgaard, Andy Ward, Matt 'Plattsburgh' Vengrin and Jon Spinks. Thers also likely to be MTT content from Marty Smith, Traheho, Andy McLEOD and Ozzy 87 in the coming months.

Mr.Plough

looks good

The Snapper

Good luck with the project chaps.:)

Wow looks really good hope it runs well for you's.

hf4z6sqo7vjngi

good luck with this, the plo vids should be interesting

robinlacey

best of luck with this,hope it goes well

semibluff

Thanks for all the best wishes guys.

Vamos

Very nice lineup, best of luck with it. Will the videos be drm licenced like on cardrunners or will they open like on deucescracked(you can play videos on ipod etc).

meathman 007

hey, there will be DRM on our videos. We looked into not having DRM, but it just creates too many issues - e.g people sign up and download all the videos and pass them on to all their friends etc and then cancel their membership, videos appearing on PokerTube etc..

opr

Best of luck to everyone involved in this. Really impressive line up of players.

If it's all that it says it's going to be, then you would be mad not to invest. Looking forward to it. Best of luck to Donal and his partner in crime.

best of luck. looking forward to seeing the finished product.
