As a bit of fun, NastyFrog (who you will recall has amassed a very significant bankroll from the Bankroll Builder) is going to be playing me in some Heads up SitNGo tournaments.
We're going to film these and NastyFrog is going to be doing a running commentary on how and why he's making his decisions.
BRM has agreed to host these and they'll be interesting and hopefully provide some tips and tricks to aid your game.
Will keep you posted when they'e up and ready.
Cheers, John
p.s Feel free to set up - Who wins polls or side bets

Yeah i like it i like it, oh yeah i like it ^^ REally good idea. It will be really nice to see nasty frog play and well, i dont really know how John play, but im sure he is doing well
Posted by ih8usukouts: Sounds like a good idea John, I'll be watching those vids. Can you make those vids in different languages???? Just kidding with you
I sure NastyFrog can do them in Swedish as well as English! .... How's your Swedish ih8?
I'm going to be over in London for a conference 21-31 Jan so I'm hoping we'll be able to get these played and uploaded very early Feb but wanted to give you all a 'heads-up' about this to see if it was something you guys would find interesting. Seems there's plenty of people who like the sound of this so we'll get it done as soon as we can.
NastyFrog is currently getting everything set up for the recording side but we're both a little unfamiliar with doing this so if anyone is a genius at itor has any ideas then I'm sure he'd love advice or suggestions.

This will be REALLY FUN!!! I will do my best to beat him. I think John is a good pokerplayer, he play higher stakes than me, so this will definetly be difficult!
If anyone have any advice, please post it on this thread. I want the video to be as good as possible, so more people can enjoy it!

This is a good idea, shows what having someone around like John does for the marketing of a company. No other site rep has been as creative as you John, fair play to you sir.
Nastyfrog, when setting up for the recording, please make sure you set up the sound correct, there's nothign worse than listening to really bad quality sound for an hour. So basically, get your mic set up, static, with a pop stopper and make sure your mouth is the kept around the same distance away from the mic when you speak.
It's very easy to to off on a tagent, so try to keep on top of the action, you should definitly have a few practice goes before you actually play John, so you can pick up on anything you think you should change, verbally.
Good luck, looking forward to watching (and hearing)

Thanks Joe. Should be fun!
I know NastyFrog is doing some testing and I'm sure he'll take your comments on board.

Posted by caletom: I would like to play the winner PLO and (or) NLHO, if it is possible?
If this goes well I'm sure that NastyFrog and myself will be up for other challengers
We'll keep you posted on our progress getting this all set up. I'm hoping to get it sorted before I'm off travelling but we want to make sure it's good quality audio and video so please bear with us on this.
