Live play training modules with Negreanu commentary and analysis
When it comes to comparing Poker VT to other poker training websites, there really is no comparison. Poker VT (the VT stands for Virtual Training) is the most advanced and most comprehensive training site available and is truly in a league of its own. Whereas most other poker training sites are solely focused on using online poker games to teach their lessons, Poker VT offers a wide variety of training modules and courses in addition to its own section dedicated to online poker instruction with its top online pros.
A poker aptitude test to measure your progress
Poker VT's unparalleled list of features and benefits starts with 1-on-1 virtual training with Daniel Negreanu who is not only regarded as one of the best all around poker players in the world, but is widely considered THE best poker communicator. His ability to analyze poker hands and articulate the training elements within each hand is world-class. Negreanu's brilliance as a play-by-play commentator and poker instructor lies in his natural ability to describe the action or the lesson so that beginners, intermediate and advanced players can all relate to and understand what he is saying.
Poker VT training system
The only training I have in tournament poker is from Daniel Negreanu's PokerVT. I can definitely say that using the strategies Daniel and his pros put forth in their videos allowed me to parlay the luck I had in the million into accumulating chips with very little risk and taught me the right way to think about the situations that came up. Tournaments certainly have a lot of luck involved, but by using the strategies you can find on this site, when it comes your time to get lucky at a tournament, you can make sure that you go all the way and get the most out of it when you do get the breaks. Daniel's strategy is perfect for these large field tournaments because it emphasizes low risk maneuvers that will help you get deeper more often instead of gambling your stack away with a small edge.
Negreanu's comprehensive course on Small Ball Tournament Strategy
The primary videos I watched from the site were the ones made by Jason Somerville. He has a rare combination of both an extraordinary poker mind and an ability to express his thoughts in a very lucid way. His videos were probably the most helpful to me out of anything I watched from VT, and I would highly recommend his videos to anyone. Even though he may not have the name recognition of someone like Daniel Negreanu (yet), the quality of instruction he delivers in his videos is always top-notch. He addresses what he would do in slightly different situations than the ones that actually happen in the videos, which is a great thing that not all poker video creators do, and he talks you through his reads and his thought process extremely well during hands.
I can say for certain that the things I learned from the pros on PokerVT.com are what made me the winner on Sunday. While other players were being too aggressive in thin spots and busting each other out, I was calmly accumulating chips with small raises and taking the small pots that nobody wanted, and I used those chips to go on to victory.
Interactive poker games to hone your poker fundamentals
In summary, Poker VT combines a world-class poker player/instructor (Negreanu) with a world-class virtual training system (LightSpeed VT) to create a poker training product for the masses that revolutionizes Texas Hold'em instruction and eventually other popular poker games. Poker VT is more informative than learning from poker shows on TV, more interactive than watching a DVD and more entertaining than reading a book. Whether you are a beginner, intermediate or advanced player; a live or online player; a feel or math player, Poker VT has plenty to offer and will improve your game.
