World Poker Tour - Season Two
Customer Reviews
Great Set for Poker Fans, April 11, 2005
Reviewer: Dorrie Wheeler "Author of Be My Sorority Sister" (Virginia Beach, Va United States)
If you are a fan of the game of poker you will surely enjoy World Poker Tour-Season Two. The show comes on the travel channel. The major players have their only little quirky personalities, like Phil Ivey who is known for wearing sweatshirts and sweat pants to the table. The announcers have little quips and jokes to provide fodder as the game play takes place. The stakes are very high. The World Poker Tour succeeds because it gives the viewers a front row seat to these high stakes games. The set is a whopping 8 discs. This set would make the perfect gift for a poker fan, or hey Father's Day is coming up too. The set includes episodes from various locations including Aruba, on ships and several episodes taped at various casinos in Nevada and California among other locals. The extras are interesting. The player profiles give the viewers insight into the players who you don't really see talk when they are at the table. The featurette "Poker Takes Over Hollywood: A look at Hollywood's fascination with poker,"
takes a look at how some of Hollywood's popular actors are into the game of poker. This set is priced less than season one and you get just as much great poker action if not more with all the bonus material. This is a wonderful DVD set for someone who likes the shows, loves the game of poker, or wants to learn more about poker.

2003 World Series of Poker
Customer Reviews
Buy only if you are a "collector", January 22, 2005
Reviewer: H. Asari (Madison, WI USA)
This is just a collection of 2003 WSOP as broadcast on ESPN. Each of the 7 episodes is commercial-free, and it contains three poker-related short segments (1, 3 and 6 minutes in length) from other ESPN shows, but there is nothing new for this DVD set. If you have seen the episodes on TV already, and don't expect watching the episodes again, I suggest passing this one and registering for an online satellite tournament for this year's WSOP instead.
Also, I noticed that the video is at times pretty choppy and nearly unbearably blocky. You would think that any professional production company can do a better job of image transfer. Oh, well. Maybe they will do a better job for the 2004 edition (if they make it).
its a great classic to have if your a poker fan, December 2, 2004

2004 World Poker Players Conference

Highly Recommend!, January 5, 2005
Reviewer: Mark (Ohio)
I would highly recommend this DVD to anyone who wants to improve their poker game! The DVD is a series of seminars by World Class Professional poker players. This is a 2 DVD set with almost 5 hours of strategy, question and answer, and winning poker concepts. I was surprised at how much I learned from these seminars since I have been playing limit and no-limit Hold'em online and in gambling casinos for the last five years I figured that this would just be some basic concepts. However, these players address both beginning and advanced strategies that will benefit a player no matter their experience. Since I play much online I really liked Lee Jones seminar on No-Limit SitnGos and also Daniel Negreanu's seminar on No-Limit Final Table play. Mark Gregorich had some excellent advice on playing poker for a living. The video and audio quality of the DVD is very good as well. This is a live poker seminar and watching this DVD is almost as good as being there; it's better in the respect that you can view the material over and
over again.

WPT IS A GOOD BET !!!, March 31, 2005
Reviewer: Dale Mason "POKER GODS" (Tokyo)
5 dvds 1300 minutes, I bought the used ones, from one of the Amazons sellers. so it was cheaper the the new ones. Overall I would reccomend this collection. The poker experts commentary, are a little weak. I would prefer to have a real tourament player (winner) being the host. But its not bad, good camera views and you can see the hole cards. Buy it you will enjoy about 20 hours of WPT poker. GOOD LUCK!

Poker Secrets From Poker Champs

Defintely Worth Watching, January 4, 2005
Reviewer: Mark "Mark" (Columbus, OH United States)
I just recieved and viewed this DVD and learned a few things that will improve my game. The best thing I liked about the DVD is learning a little bit about how the poker pros think about the game and money management. Most of the strategy presented is very basic but I picked up some great ideas just from the way the players described how they like to play the game. The video and audio quality of the DVD is good as well. I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 because I would have like to see some deeper strategy discussed but I guess with so many people interviewed (and it's good to get all of these perspectives) there just wasn't enough time. The DVD though is approx. 2 and a half hours of good helpful material especially for those who do not have alot of experience in the game. Would definately recommend watching and for the money this DVD costs you can't go wrong.

Poker for Dummies
Spotlight Reviews
I'm a recent convert to Texas Hold 'Em and just wanted to get the basics of the game down and rented this DVD. The show is hosted by 2003 World Series of Poker champion Chris Moneymaker and is intended to show the basics of the game, not high-end strategy moves. Chris goes through basics such as the ranking of hands in poker (pairs, full house), explains betting lingo (check, raise, call) and gives etiquette pointers. They show a hand of Hold 'Em being played by a group of people and explained the various options each bettor had in each round. That was helpful to me as it goes so fast on TV. Chris also looks fairly comfortable in front of the camera.
Chris and another poker legend (whose name now escapes me) explain various strategies for playing depending on the hand that you receive and where you are sitting in relation to the dealer button. It's very quick and will certainly not be useful to somebody who has played for a while.
A "bonus" section of other poker games is also included (Omaha, 7 Card Stud, 5 Card Stud), but only give a quick basics of the games. I think this is included to try to drum up business for the other Dummies card game DVDs and books, as there is a commercial for them at the end of the disk. The disc is about 50 minutes long, of which about 35 minutes is dedicated to Hold 'Em, 12 minutes to the other games and the rest to commercials.
If you want to learn to play Texas Hold 'Em, rent this to start and then buy the Donohue Texas Hold 'Em computer game to practice (see my recent review).

Texas Hold'em Poker - Fundamentals For Winning (1989)
Customer Reviews
Fundamentals for Winning, October 29, 2003
Reviewer: Dixie Lee Anderson (SHERMAN OAKS, CA United States)
This video would make a great topic for an Oprah show cause it's interesting. I needed to know the fundamentals for winning if I was to go to the local card club and meet Ben Aflek. I was able to pick up enough to play in the Ladies Day tournament. I even won real money!! I have found an entirely new interst. Simple, easy to understand, I could rewind and go thru what was difficult for me to understand. I loved it, learned how to play, and I still have it as a refresher. I've bought a half dozen for Christmas presents that I feel are unique.I recommend this video on a number of different levels and numerous reasons. This video is so much better than a book. I'll replay the video where I won't re-read a book!!
