This is probably the worst instructional poker DVD I have ever seen. It's only about 35 minutes long and all he talks about are the acronyms used while playing online (i.e. ROTFLMAO = roll on the floor laughing my a** off) and really not much else. If you have his other 2 DVDs from the same series, don't waste your money on this one. It's not worth it.

When I watched this DVD I really had to laugh. I find it kind of amusing how Hellmuth could release such a DVD. It absolutly has no value if you're looking for an instructional DVD. You "learn" things like "LOL" means laugh out loud, or that the advantages of online play are that you can play whenever you want, you can multitable or listen to the radio while you're playing.
And of course this wouldn't be a Hellmuth DVD if he didn't tell us how a great pokerplayer he is.

The only reason I give this DVD 2 stars instead of one is, because I find it kind of entertaining. I like listening to this guy and his storys, I really have to laugh about how he is promoting himself.

But if you're no big fan of Hellmuth, don't get fooled to buy this dvd.. it has no valuable information - not even for absolute beginners.

Phil could offer so much. Instead all we get is his self-promotion.

This DVD is a great foundation for starting to play poker for anyone just getting into the game. I have since advanced to the next level, but this dvd really got me started in the right direction. I highly recommend it. I would also have to agree with Phil that Ultimatebet is the best site for playing poker. They have the best user interface & the highest limits. They also have some of the best online players there so it helps your game out tremendously. I am now a high stakes player consistently winning. The next dvd to watch after this is Annie duke's dvd, how i beat the big boys. Filled with great information for the player ready to get to the next level. But start with Phil's basic strategy & get a good grasp of the game. Good luck & I hope to see you at the high stakes tables on Ultimatebet soon! Both Annie & Phil are sponsored by Ultimatebet & you can see them playing online & even play against them!
