Summary: Good for the Price
Comment: Good for the price at $9.95 and for long boring flights with Harry Potter in-flight movies. Annie does have some interesting tips, but nothing most serious players haven't already figured out. Just kinda validates what you already know.
The video is a little boring. Honestly, I must confess I haven't made it all the way through the video yet. Maybe the best tips are in the other parts I haven't watch? The other problem is that the DVD was obviously done on the cheap. At several points you can hear people walking down a hallway behind Annie Duke. You wouldn't think it would matter, but it makes it harder to watch than it should be.

Summary: Worth the money
Comment: This video is produced in the best fashion however the information is beneficial and is worth the money.

Summary: Worth the 5 bucks
Comment: Production is pretty poor; it's just Duke sitting at a poker table with a deck of cards. She's serious about poker and watching her explain poker is never fun. That said, there were more than a few gold nuggets here that have improved my game: slow playing a dry board, physical tells to watch for, how to play against a very aggressive opponent, how to disguise your betting patterns, etc. If you're fairly new to poker, this is a very good purchase. And if you know the game well, you'll still pick up some good info. The portion on tells was very revealing; in fact, when I selected a jury recently for a trial I observed many tells of the potential jurors based on what Duke described on this DVD. Duke is, no doubt, an incredible poker player. I wish this DVD was longer and more in depth.

Summary: A DVD to watch over and over...
Comment: I think this DVD is really helpful to the intermediate/advanced Holdem player. If your a beginner this DVD can give you a broad sense for what your getting yourself into, so you might want to get some material that introduces you to the game and intermediate concepts. If you watch this DVD once you won't (well at least I didn't) really capture all that is taught since everything she says is so concentrated you have to watch it over and over and take notes (hopefully) if your really serious about playing holdem.
For the content, Annie Duke presents a lot of advanced concepts to think about that are really situational. None of it is vague and this material will help you, though in the DVD there isn't really much practical examples in which she demonstrates holdem "scenarios" with the deck she has in front of her throught the whole DVD. I wasn't too happy about that but still, all the information she presents is valuable and essential for the holdem player. You just need to watch this DVD over and over and you'll start to extract the concepts and add them to your repertoire. Watching this DVD alone will not make you ready to play holdem; it's one of many media/materials you add to your library of poker and you need to go out and find more material to study from. Annie Duke is a pretty awesome player and you need to make sure your not watching DVD's from those superstar pro's you see on TV all the time just becasue they win all the bracelets/tourneys. You can learn from any author/player to get insight from many people vs just one. I find it cute how Annie is like "Just please don't use this information against me!" LOL...umm yeah I don't think any poker player would really reveal thier WHOLE arsenal of skills to the public, maybe students but not the public. Anyway Annie Duke is pretty cool! Hope to meet her one day. :)

Summary: a good buy
Comment: It's a good dvd, fairly decent production value. Rather then teaching with rules it provokes more thought. I enjoyed it, even though i didnt get the one for beginers.
