Hey Cardschat Fam!

It's been 10 Years since I created the MTT Video Strategy Guide
And the concepts in it are still applicable in today's games

You can Now Watch it here - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLBrNnyWekagNfZT5HVQTxcN28OaxR94Ae

Tournament theory is always consistent, it's only the Meta that changes
This video series will teach you what to think about so you can make adjustments

It's the video course that helped me cash for over $1 Million in my career
And the same video course that started Charlie Carrel and many others
On their journey to becoming winning Tournament Players (SNG and MTT)

This course used to be a premium product in my store. But in 2023 I decided to close the pokermarket
And instead give away all my best stuff for Free. It feels good to give back and cardschat is all about that!

So I hope you enjoy it, and if you have any questions that you post them in this thread (or on the videos themselves)
It would be my honor to give back to the community that's given me so much over the past 5 years

And I really hope that these videos help you get more points & win more events in the Cards Chat Leagues
Here's to an awesome 2023 on the Tournament Tables. Let's Go Out There, and Get Stackin!

Part 9 - How to Adjust to Massive Field Tournaments

Part 9 of the all-in-one guide to tournament poker teaches you what adjustments to make when playing large field tournaments (5000+ players).
Learn why these tournaments are the best spot for you to be investing your bankroll!

Massive fields mean the chance for massive paydays. But they usually also require taking more chances!
If you know your skills are sharp and you run deep in one of these you'll have 2 things working for you

1) A big skill advantage over the average remaining players
2) Playing for bigger stakes than anyone is comfortable with

Put that together and you have a recipe for a very high EV situation
Hopefully this video will help you find yourself in exactly that!

Really hope you enjoy it :)

And Yes! I was thinking this would be a great followup to the CC 30-day fundamentals course

Perhaps I should have posted this thread in Learning Poker... either way... I think the right people will find it :)

Good idea, let's propose this with the @Tammy direction what do you think?
Another fun fact, will you publish information about this epic Freeroll here? I was very interested, it has already gained 1 follower.

Yes, it would be cool if they translated the video into Russian because there are a lot of people here who don't understand I'm very interested in this video, I think the same way as another participant from other countries, but due to the fact that we don't understand what we're talking about in the video, we can't understand this video, translate it if you succeed I think many people will watch this video and share it with their friends and there will be more views

This is a great point!

I'm thinking that the language which would reach the most additional people would be
-Spanish
-Russian
-French
-German
-Mandarin
-Hindi
-Arabic

If anyone knows the best places to find translators for such things please let me know!!!
