Hi Phil,
Where can I get a description showing the difference of content between the Elite & the Essential for your site?
I'm 100% interested in checking it out (signing up to a Training site is actually something I've been considering doing again for the past couple months but couldn't decide on what site to join). Myself & a buddy are looking at getting back at grinding low stakes MTT's online & I'm thinking a month (or two... or three...or ??? ) of studying via the use of a training site would be a good idea. I'm just not sure if I'd need the 'Elite' content at first... or maybe I should just spring for it. (especially with the great offer of getting the 2nd month for free).
Is it possible to upgrade from Essential to Elite partway into the month?
You can get a basic overview on our
Plans and Pricing page, but I'll tell you a little bit here as well:
With the
Essential plan, you'll get full access to our Essential library (1,684 videos as of today) and 5 new videos each week. Almost none of them are "beginner" videos - they cover advanced concepts. I've personally made about 60 Essential videos, but other than me, the videos are made by professional low to mid-stakes players, who make their videos at micro to low-stakes.
With the
Elite plan, you'll get everything in Essential, plus access to our Elite library (2,662 videos as of today) and another 9 advanced training videos per week. Other than some specialists in areas like poker psychology, these are made by mid-high stakes pros. As an example, our Elite cash game players must be pros at the 500nl / 500plo level or higher.
In order to make the best decision you can, I'd suggest playing around on our
Video Library page. Though you can only watch 2-minute previews, you can see the types of videos released in each category, and the pros releasing them. There are some nice filtering options as well.
As to your question about the deal: If you register for Essential for your first month and decide you want to upgrade to Elite for your second month, send us an email and we’ll provide you a $25 discount which will apply to your second month. If you want to upgrade during your first month... hmmm... I'll have to ask how that works, but we'll be fair
Lastly, if you want to get a feel for our content, there are
3 Free Elite videos here. You'll have to open a Basic (free) account to view them - no payment info is necessary.
I have always firmly believed that players should invest in their games and that training sites are the most cost-effective way to do it, even before I ever made a training video. That said, you shouldn't take my word for it
.
I'd love for some of you who've been members or who sign up for the offer to tell everyone else how you like it and how it's impacted your game, whether the truth is good or bad!
If you give me a little more detail about your poker experience and your
bankroll, I'll be happy to give you an honest opinion of which plan I think would be better for you. "Getting back into low stakes MTTs" sounds more likely to be Essential to me, but there are always other factors like your overall experience, goals and budget.
Let me know what you think if you at least check out the free videos!
