| 11/22/03 | .50/1 HE Ring | This game is more in-synch with the typical low-limit games, where the play is loose. Commentary mostly on my own play and not too much about taking notes, but pretty good as I point out how to deal with some situations. I do get lucky in this game and make a number of mistakes though, so you can see my screw ups too :) | Start Text Only |
| 11/5/03 | .50/1 HE Ring | Quite a bit of commentary in here, so good for the beginner or moderate player, but good players may get bored by this commentary. The emphasis of this is to take player notes, observe the game and to play selective hands. | Start Text Only |
