Writing this cause someone asked in my WCOOP selling thread for a list of learning resources for 8 Game Mix. I think its a really good idea for a thread so if anyone has anything to contribute fire ahead, my list is a bit limited. Not including No Limit Hold'em for obvious reasons. As a general rule Cardrunners and Deuces Cracked are the 2 biggest training sites out there so naturally they have the biggest 'other games' libraries of videos.
Pot Limit Omaha
- Jeff Hwang's books are the best resource IMO, particularly his 'Advanced PLO' book.
- Theres over 100 vids on Cardrunners on PLO now, Brian Hastings are the best of the bunch.
- Again a ton of PLO vids on Deuces Cracked, havn't watched most of them so i can't say who's are the best
- I have heard from a few people now that Blue Fire Poker has some of the best PLO vids online, purely because you get to rail someone as good as Phil Galfond.
Limit Hold'em
- Mike Schnieders vids on CR are the best IMO, really like DeathDonkeys vids on DC as well.
- Jennifer Harman's section in Super/System 2 is decent if not a bit limited.
2-7 Triple Draw Lowball
- This thread right here > http://www.pokerroad.com/forums/open...-strategy.html is the best thing you can use to learn TDL once you have the basics, put it in your favourites and read it every time you play, you won't go far wrong.
- Lee Prztyula's videos on CR are good for beginners, they do have some mistakes and some small bits of bad advice in them though.
- Negreanu's TDL section in Super/System 2 is again good for beginners but has 1 or 2 shocking bits of advice in it. Worth a read but don't use it as a bible.
- DeathDonkey's and Vingcent's videos on DC are the best videos out there but some of the advice will go over your head unless you have been playing for a while.
7-Card Stud
-My favourite resource for stud is Chip Resse's section in the original Super/System.
-There are a few vids on CR and DC, i havn't watched most of the DC ones but some CR's arn't great TBH. (I did most of my learning in this game by playing)
7-Card Stud 8/Better
- Joe Talls DC vids are the best IMO, the other DC vids are good as well.
- CR vids mainly done by Chips-Ahoya are good but i found hard to listen to sometimes, something to do with his voice but IDK. He has a great 3-part series dealing with the basics though.
- Todd Brunson's section in Super/System 2 is good but is the type of thing i had to reread a few times before it sank in.
Razz
- The Razz section of 'Slansky on Poker' is the best resource IMO, the original Super/System's section on it is also good.
- Dr Razz's vids on CR are good.
Limit Omaha 8/Better
- By far the hardest game to get good info on as alot of the books out there deal with PLO8 which is a completly different game.
- Mark Gregorich/Bobby Baldwins section in Super/System 2 is OK but basic but it deals with PLO8 more than LO8.
- CR vids are ok but not great, havn't watched most DC vids yet but they have been good from what i have seen.
- I have been reading posts on 2+2 and that has helped me alot.
Overall Mixed Games
- The best video series dealing with mixed games is Report Card on DC.
- Cardrunners mixed games videos are a bit of a joke TBH, they don't have an instructor apart from Nicolac and maybe Jackal who can play all the games well and if they do, they still give some bad advice in their vids.
Probably forgot a ton but meh, this is all just based on my opinion obv. Have fun.
