Bombjack's $25 6-max NLHE video

Here's about 35 minutes of me playing two 6-max tables, with commentary describing what I'm doing. Hopefully will help some new players with some basic tips and ideas for 6-max tables.

I'm still learning things all the time and can't claim to play perfectly, so any comments and criticism are welcome!

Here are the files (just go to the site, enter the code and save to disk - about 25MB each):
Part 1
Part 2
Part 3

And here's a summary of my stats for the session (look away if you don't want to know what happend... although they don't tell the whole story because I played a few more hands on the end after filming). Overall I played pretty tight-aggressive by 6-max standards, only in 22% of pots, but raising almost every time. Tricky play can be rewarded, but I'll save that for another video...

Downloading right now, interested in seeing your approach.

Watched the first one already and I'm going to download the other two in the morning when I'm more awake. The commentary is great so far.

Oh boy...I'm looking forward to this...seriously. We always see videos of stuff from youtube and such, but this will actually be a CardsChat member in the video and narrating it. Looking forward to it.

I downloaded the first one and Windows Media Player says can't find the file and won't play it.

Suggestions anyone?

I would help you Deb, except I can't find where to click to download it...

dakota...my only suggestion is to try opening it with real player or another program.

juiceeQ...you first have to enter the 3 number verification code on the bottom of the page. Then you have to wait 30 seconds and click the green button just below the ads from Google.

Hope that helps

What?? You mean scroll down? Unheard of! (God, I'm hopeless...) Thanks Jimbo.

Confused me a bit then I saw that clock ticking away. Figured it was either a bomb or I had to wait.

Which was it?

I had to wait for the bomb(jack)

LOL...+rep...nice one. Hopefully his movies aren't bombs.

Well, got it downloaded, but now having the same problem as Deb. When it informs me Windows Media can't play it, it doesn't give the option to browse...

Dont know...worked perfectly for me and my computer is usually the one not co-operating

Seems to work fine for me as well. So when you got the choice, you selected Save (instead of Open) right? And you saved it to your computer somewhere? But now when you find the file on your comp and double click it, it won't play? What version of WMP are you using?

Finished the vids and I could sense a little hostility at the end of the last.

Ok, so I saved it to my computer, everything opened up, but part 1 all I get is BJ's intro, then it stops--even though it says it's 12 minutes long...

What's your filesize for part 1? Should be a little over 25 Meg (25,000K). If not the right size, it may be corrupted...download again.

Hmmm...it only says 281KB....

Try downloading it again...my exact file size for part 1 is 25,392K.

Oops, no I opened.

It is probably not 12 minutes long, guys don't know the difference in 12 and much smaller numbers......

not true.....

Maybe I'll try a different file hosting site if some people are having problems. This was just one of the first that came up when I googled "file hosting". (Tried putting them as an attachment and uploading directly to CardsChat, but it didn't work - must be an invalid file type or something.)

Why not load them up at youtube.com, then people can stream them right on their computer.

I might be wrong but I think YouTube is restricted to a 320x240 resolution (not good for seeing what cards people have or bet values) and 10 minute clips.

Oh sure, throw that little limitation back in my face.

And actually, the site you're using seems to be just fine in general. It's just a couple people having problems and we're working through it with them (er...user error and such, ahem....)

try bolt.com not sure exactly how it works but I've seen a lot of video hosted there.

absolutely no problems for me..... windows media worked just fine.
my suggestion is to only play 1 game at a time next time though...... trying to see and figure out which game you are talking about is a bit tough......
Great commentary though......
Thanks! will get to the rest when I have some more time......

1 piece of advice from an ex-radio DJ: If you don't have a good mic foam, keep the mic under your chin and talk across the mic tip. Not down into it. It will get rid of the "tornado" effect when you breathe out and will keep your "P's" from "popping".

Otherwise, good stuff!

I've got another part from a different session that I recorded here (87MB), which has been cut down and has few more "action" hands. See me stack off 3 times and stack 2 other players.

Useful info for if I create a "how-to" thread at the end of this!
