bossyrossy 0 Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 I'm thinking of joining the poker Xfactor site but would like to hear what some existing members think of it before I join.I used the search function but couldn't find anything.At the moment I'm mainly a cash game player ($1-2NL) though I have had some success in MTT's (Biggest win $1325). I have just started playing SNG's on Tilt (woowoo3) but would like to improve both my SNG and MTT's as I think I play a bit too tight. Are the videos on the site as good as they sound?Thanks for your help Link to post Share on other sites

Jimmy_v 0 Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 if you are serious about improving its worth the money in my opinion. Yeah you can stop renewing anytime you want, but there is a initial signup fee. Link to post Share on other sites

timwakefield 68 Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 Do the videos come with audio commentary like on cardrunner? Link to post Share on other sites
Steamed Rice 0 Posted May 29, 2007 Share Posted May 29, 2007 I already have a CR membership but I need to improve my MTT game. Are the CR MTT videos different from PXF? Is it worth shelling out the extra $$$ for it, or am I fine with CardRunners? Link to post Share on other sites
JesseW316 0 Posted May 29, 2007 Share Posted May 29, 2007 I prefer PXF actually. I like listening to Bax and Sheets significantly more than the CR people. Not only their voices but the quality of the audio is significantly better. The good thing about CR is that you can DL the videos and just watch them from your desktop whenever you want. The bad thing is the CR site is much slower and more unreliable than PXF, but I think they're working on that. Tourneys I would recommend PXF and CR is geared towards cash games.I think Bax and Sheets and the PXF people do a much better job with the videos. If you only care about mtts/sngs, go with PXF first. Cash games go with CR. Although I recommend doing both as they are great as a total package. I have both and it's one of the best things I've done. I haven't done a CR video in awhile as I've been really happy with my new subscription to PXF, but I definitely think they are both useful. It never hurts to get more than one view on the game.

Kestral123 0 Posted May 29, 2007 Share Posted May 29, 2007 If you only care about mtts/sngs, go with PXF first. Cash games go with CR.I researched this extensively before signing up for one, and what Jesse wrote is the general consensus based on my research. Because I'm primarily an MTT player, I chose PXF. Best investment I've ever made. My MTT game took off bigtime right after I joined. Link to post Share on other sites
