Hey guys

Made an attempt earlier at recording a vid, went on for a bit longer than I intended but hey. The problem I had was that due to the games being 3-4, even 5-handed, to just about every flop (What legislation?) the games were slooooooow. (140 hands in just over 1 hour of 2-tabling).

This lead to quite a lot of dead air time after I'd run though my reads on the players and even tried to backtrack onto some hands I'd played earlier. Any ideas for filling the dead air time or would it be better to commentate after the fact?

Thanks

I dont think dead air is that much of a problem,
unless it gets many minutes long, with no playable hands etc,
then perhaps some editing out is in order.

Has anyone tried taking a long vid, and editing it down to just the interesting hands?
I am considering doing this when one tabling, plus I play better one tableing.
Is editing difficult?

I am waiting to see this vid...release it...I will put up with the dead air.

You may be waiting a while sadly. Let's just say my attempts at making Live Vids have not gone well.

I may edit that one down though as there are some quite interesting hands in it. Editing isn't that hard, it's just time-consuming.

dead air probably isnt a big deal with a member video; its more of an issue for us DC producers that are trying to instruct, not be instructed!

You can always comment on the hands you are not playing. Observing how villains play should be part of your game and maybe you draw wrong conclusions from what you see etc. So this could be quite helpfull for you, too.
For example say villain A plays villain B and check/calls the flop, you say you put him on a range of [...] then someone could tell you "this range is highly unlikely because he has played weak tight so far" etc etc and you could have learned something.
