I told you I would give you some more poker gizmos and gadgets to try out. This one is my new personal favorite - and while it’s not really a gadget per se, it will take your game to a new level. I, a two and a half year veteran of the game, am learning things every day by subscribing to this site, and while it is a bit pricy, look at it as an investment, not a purchase, and you’ll feel a heckuva lot better about it. So what is this site you ask? The site is PokerXFactor, and it features training from two of the top internet professionals, JohnnyBax and Sheets. As a subscriber, you get to watch animated hand histories from Bax and Sheets, all the while listening to their commentary as the hand history proceeds. They will pause hands and give a thorough analysis, tell you their thought processes, and really make you think more clearly about the game of poker. Don’t just take it from me, this is an email I got from a friend of mine that is also part of the XFactor family:

I just wanted to say that anyone who plays in tournaments like you do and hasn’t seen the videos on pxf is wasting their money. I mean, not in a literal sense, because you are winning. But it might just be the difference between cashing and not cashing, winning or finishing 5th. Seriously, these things are awesome. I haven’t played an MTT since I subscribed last week (I haven’t had time) nor have I played much at all. Still, I feel like I’m building confidence by just watching these videos. It’s worth watching them over and over, too, so that you recognize like situations and can apply it when you do play. This, along with reading the Harrington books again, is giving me another look at poker. It seems that the process of learning and re-learning never stops, but PXF is a CHEAP lesson that you can’t afford to pass up. And, I saw Bax say to one of his tables, when someone told him that it was too expensive, that they are thinking of raising prices. Get in while you can get in for the cheap price. It’ll be a great couple hundred (I did the neteller method for just under $200 and I’m paid through June or something like that). I think it’s a worthwhile investment for that cash that you just won. It only takes one tournament to pay for itself.
Anyway, I know I’m gushing about it, but I’m addicted to these videos. This is a hobby for me, but I’m hoping to simply cash large enough soon to take out another 3-month payment to neteller and extend my membership. If I can just play for these lessons for a while I’ll be happy!
