Hi Guys,

I have just finished the two busiest months of my working life. Thanks for the economic stimulus package Mr Rudd, the money was nice, but 2 months of no sleep was a tad hard to swallow.

Anyways, I am now still pretty busy trying to catch up on other work which had to take a back seat. BUT, its getting close to a more normal life again. I now have 4 x 40 minutes videos which provide enough interesting spots to make a descent video. I have been recording every night but without commentary. So next step is to get some commentary into those and they will be good to go.

I'm going to do a NL5 vid for the Forum this weekend so it will be a good practice at final production.

Pocket Jokers rocks for a name

So I take it we now spend a few months compiling loads of content ready for a launch early next year?

Lock it in Eddy?

David is the only one that is half a chance at getting my reference in the title.... but....

I just tried putting pocket jokers in as a URL and no one has that domain name.

I think this would be an awesome name guys, Dan (Raz) , myself are happy to have it, David and Ed were the ones who suggested it, I am assuming Marty doesn't really mind what the name is, as long as it's not "pornopoker" or something that will tie his name to a possibly unscrupulous website domain. That leaves Richard, but his post seemed to indivate he is happy with whatever we come up with.

So I am laying it out.... unless any of you guys have an objection, "PocketJokers" is going to be our site's name. Agree?

Now onto other things. I am now finished with my internship. I have 2 weeks of holidays now, then for 10 weeks after that I have casual work ... maybe 3 days a week for the rest of the year. Also I have 6 weeks off after that. Basically I have more time on my hands now up until February when I am more than likely have a good ol' 9-5er.

Which means I should be able to prepare lots of content for the site. Most will be about Cash games, theory plus live play. Also some more peripheral topics, but I might wait and see what Richard has to offer as it might be similiar to what he is preparing.... more on that later.

I am growing more and more excited about this guys, I know we are all busy but I hope we can produce something.

Summary
- PocketJokers is our name (unless someone has a good reason why it shouldn't)
- Content is on its way

Name

Pocket Jokers gets a +1 from me aswell

I like PoketJokers a lot.... I vote 1

Me and David have been thinking about names.

How about

PocketJokers.com

or

PocketJokersClub.com

Seems like a good poker related name with a bit of humour. Also graphics would be nice with this.

OMG how did I not think of this earlier

About 3 months or so ago, I msn'ed David telling him I have come up with the most ingenious name for a poker book ever created by a human being. Ok so I am talking it up a bit but I think it could have potential........

"Living on the edge"

yes? no? FU its awesome

As for pokervideoing.....

Nona made this tutorial for making your videos using CamStudio ... link not working....

Try this

Then scroll to the bottom, the username and password are..... is this page private???? Well the username IS the password and the username is the "organ of that gets damaged from having too many beers" you have to guess it, starts with l.....

Well I made 2 videos over the weekend, and both of them pretty much sucked. The first one had live commentary, but I intended to play 2 tables of NL10 and didn't realise till a too late one of them was NL5 (who knew you can buy into NL5 for $10?) So that oversight resulted in some pretty daft comments. I tried dubbing over the audo, but retrospective commentary is harder than it looks.

Aside from the commentary F up that video had loads of cool spots and interesting hands.

The second video was great commentary but pretty much as boring as bat $hit as far as content and interesting hands go.

Post production is taking my forever because I basically have no clue how to use Camtasia.

If anyone else is sharing this last problem, do you reckon one of us who does have a clue could hook the rest of us up with an ABC, easy to follow, don't have to read 10,000 pages instructional guide?
