I've been really excited with this series and I think Vandweller does an excellent job. I'm so glad this one came out before my subscription ran out.
In Episode Two, vandweller looks at veloblank's pre-coaching hand histories, diagnoses some of his more egregious errors, and offers some simple fixes. Discussed are pre-flop hand selection, when and how to play speculative hands, bet sizing, and the value of simplifying one's decision-making.
This series will air every other week. Tune in and watch vandweller take DC member and student veloblank and coach him into a solid winner. Get to know what it takes to be a “grinder,†including proper goal-setting, bankroll management and using tools of the trade to optimize your play. Then jump straight into SNG strategy – broad overviews of the stages of the game, live sweat sessions and deep replayer analysis. Guest appearances from Bones.

Sorry about the length on this one guys, but I didn't want to end it arbitrarily at 60 or 90 minutes (since even if I did, John and I would have kept talking anyway, so why not get it all recorded.) Just think of it as a two-parter put out all on the same day. I think maybe the lack of a powerpoint is to blame. :-)
Also I realize that a lot of the hands may seem pretty basic to some of you, but as I indicated in Episode One, my priority is on helping Velo, while crossing my fingers that it ends up being interesting viewing to the lot of you.
Anyhow, with that out of the way, get a 6-pack of Red Bull, hit "Play" and enjoy.
If this one is half as good as the first, it will be epic.

It's certainly longer than several epic films. It's probably 40% as good, though it's probably better than Waterworld.
I have to say that before I got involved with DC, I just released videos on my site, on my own schedule, and if people bought them, whatever, it didn't matter all that much; but here on DC, I actually get kind of antsy on video release day. Weird feeling.
Please, no need to be sorry for how long it is. It's really useful infomation from the perspective of someone like me who has very little sng knowledge or skill at all.
It's series like this that cover the absolute fundimentals and take it from there which are completely solid and the most helpful. I really like the way you're taking your time over concepts and adding the building blocks, it works
As for powerpoint, don't worry about i was taking notes ![]()
thank you very very much
I will be playing more SNG's due to this series

So this video's range is somewhere between Waterworld and Field of Dreams, resting around Dances with Wolves?
If so, I'll take it. Just no Postman vids.
NO POWERPOINT?! ...for shame!
Good video guys, solid coaching of a beginner for sure.
Good luck Velo, this is pure gold being shoveled your way, I hope you took some notes! It would be cool to hear from you in the tournament forum. Maybe a thread of your progress or questions. Hand Histories or questions are always welcome.
I swear to God this is classic. I'm sorry John but your thought process is completely backwards
first
Fail! ![]()
Nice video. Thanks.

yeah what the f*** is that all about i came on here expecting an hour long video and here i get double the value wtffff godamn DC has gone down hill recently, gonna cancel my subscription and go to The SNG Academy
on no wai-
Watched it all, pretty basic stuff still of course due to the nature of the video.
I liked that you started asking velo what he thought about his play and what he was trying to achieve when making a move. I'd like to see more interaction by him in the future when he applies the concepts presented in this session.
Is there a way to get ahold of your earlier videos? I looked on your website and it says that it is being redesigned.
