Of my latest crop of videos this one on Mississippi Stud is the worst. There was a misunderstanding about the time a dealer was supposed to arrive to help with pai gow so I had to improvise and do this game with no planning.

Besides saying that video is boring and I suck, I welcome all other comments, questions, and especially corrections.

I don't think this video is as bad as you seem to think. BUT, there's an error at the 4 minute mark. You claim to have a pair of kings. I can't see the cards on the table, but the images that you've super-imposed do not reflect that hand. You may want to change the image on the screen (which shows JQ as your hand).

Perhaps you could try doing your videos with one of those Darth Vader voice emulators.
There's no secret. Just know what you're talking about before you open your mouth.

Good catch! The editors obviously couldn't see what the cards were on the table (I knew this would be a problem at the time) so guessed. I'll have him cheat and change one of my cards to a king.

Upon receiving a pair at any point (6's or higher) we normally triple across the board, not waiting for anything else to happen.
Also here in MS there is another way to lose money, the pair plus sidebet, based on the dealers three upcards.

My overall opinion is that the video does a great job of teaching the game.. Rules, strategy, etc. I have never played it before and just based on having watched this, I'd feel comfortable sitting down and playing tomorrow.

Oh and as a general rule, I'd also say any video which includes Angela can never suck.
