Worth the 5 bucks May 1, 2008
Production is pretty poor; it's just Duke sitting at a poker table with a deck of cards. She's serious about poker and watching her explain poker is never fun. That said, there were more than a few gold nuggets here that have improved my game: slow playing a dry board, physical tells to watch for, how to play against a very aggressive opponent, how to disguise your betting patterns, etc. If you're fairly new to poker, this is a very good purchase. And if you know the game well, you'll still pick up some good info. The portion on tells was very revealing; in fact, when I selected a jury recently for a trial I observed many tells of the potential jurors based on what Duke described on this DVD. Duke is, no doubt, an incredible poker player. I wish this DVD was longer and more in depth.
A DVD to watch over and over... April 27, 2008
I think this DVD is really helpful to the intermediate/advanced Holdem player. If your a beginner this DVD can give you a broad sense for what your getting yourself into, so you might want to get some material that introduces you to the game and intermediate concepts. If you watch this DVD once you won't (well at least I didn't) really capture all that is taught since everything she says is so concentrated you have to watch it over and over and take notes (hopefully) if your really serious about playing holdem.
For the content, Annie Duke presents a lot of advanced concepts to think about that are really situational. None of it is vague and this material will help you, though in the DVD there isn't really much practical examples in which she demonstrates holdem "scenarios" with the deck she has in front of her throught the whole DVD. I wasn't too happy about that but still, all the information she presents is valuable and essential for the holdem player. You just need to watch this DVD over and over and you'll start to extract the concepts and add them to your repertoire. Watching this DVD alone will not make you ready to play holdem; it's one of many media/materials you add to your library of poker and you need to go out and find more material to study from. Annie Duke is a pretty awesome player and you need to make sure your not watching DVD's from those superstar pro's you see on TV all the time just becasue they win all the bracelets/tourneys. You can learn from any author/player to get insight from many people vs just one. I find it cute how Annie is like "Just please don't use this information against me!" LOL...umm yeah I don't think any poker player would really reveal thier WHOLE arsenal of skills to the public, maybe students but not the public. Anyway Annie Duke is pretty cool! Hope to meet her one day. :)
a good buy April 27, 2008
It's a good dvd, fairly decent production value. Rather then teaching with rules it provokes more thought. I enjoyed it, even though i didnt get the one for beginers.
 Great Videos, but watch out for Amazon's "Better Together" deal April 21, 2008
These videos are great and I recommend them. However, be forewarned, this boxed set includes:
Masters of Poker: Annie Duke's Beginner's Guide to Texas Hold 'Em
Annie Duke's Advanced Texas Hold 'Em Secrets - How to Beat the Big Boys (Masters of Poker)
Masters of Poker Presents: Annie Duke's Conquering Online Poker
All three are available individually, and as part of Amazon's "Better Together" deal they offer this boxed set with a copy of one of the videos already included in the box. So unless you want multiple copies, take a pass on the "Better Together" deal.
good common sense information March 21, 2008
