How vital are these training sites for developing your game? Are they a neccesity to further your game? I'm thinking of signing up for a month with my FTP's on Fulltilt.

It'd be almost definitely worth it, I think. Though I haven't seen video's from those sites in particular.

Bluefire, Deuces Cracked and Leggo are prob the top 3 training sites. If you do a search their is a number of threads with reviews on them.

BFP doesn't have DRM vids so you can DL a lot then watch later.

Yeah I am a member and his Videos are really really good. Only thing is the amount of content on BFP compared to DC and Leggo is very small. That said its substance over content and as Bob points out the site has a number of great instructors besides Galfond.

Here's a couple of past threads.

Check out http://www.pokertrainingreviews.net/ to get an overview of some of them.

Leggopoker would be my preference.

Any of ye watch grogheadflow's vids on Leggo? He plays sooo lag. Well worth a watch as he has an unorthodox style and its entertaining.

My preference is BF and DC. I think training sites are v important to micro and ssnl players. They become less important the higher you play though.

Personally I didn't really watch that many PLO vids, think I watched some of Stinger's and Wazz' on CR when I first started. Didn't really help me that much, subbed to BFP and watched Jman's PLO vids which were a lot better. Guess they helped since I'm in profit (yay) for the 46k hands I played since then. Still playing PLO100, 200.

I just watched one there, his playing style is certainly unique...He played insanely lag then at the end said the next part I'll step up the aggression, I really can't wait for that one...

I doubt I could ever play that aggro but he does alot of things I like, could be fun to try a few of them over my next few sessions.

Yea, he leads into PRF so much and generally is a pain in the ass to play vs. His graph in is all red line winnings. I have adapted a few things from it and its working well so far, but i think many would fail if they tried to play like him. Also, Aejones played him HU in the last aejones HU vid if you wanna look.
