Dara Kearney and I yesterday released a joint review of a hyper turbo tournament that he won on PokerStars. Most of you probably know, by now, that I’m raising money for the Bay Area Urban Debate League and will release a free hour of poker strategy video for every $500 raised. Dara kindly agreed to help out, and he did not hold back. I learned more than a few things myself about super-short-stacked play and ICM. Gareth begged me not to release it, but I told him “Dammit, the Thinking Poker nation has blown me away with their generosity, and now it’s my turn to blow them away with poker videos!”
You can watch the video here. If you’ve already donated, thanks! If not, please give whatever you think the video is worth after you’ve seen it.
This is the second video I’ve released as part of this campaign. The first, with Gareth Chantler, is available here. There are at least three more coming – Daryl Jace and I recorded one today – and I’ve updated my fundraising goal to set the bar for another $500, at which point I’ll release a sixth video. We’ve raised over $2500 so far – please keep the donations rolling in!
If you donate before the end of December, you’ll get two additional perks:
- Your contribution will be matched, meaning that every dollar you donate will generate two dollars for the organization!
- Donations of $10 or more will be entered in a drawing to win a free custom video, a free month at Tournament Poker Edge, or free Nitcast gear!
