Brand new to the PokerSoftware.com Recommended Software program is Tournament Poker Edge, a hip poker training site. As its name implies, Tournament Poker Edge is wholly focused on providing instruction in poker tournaments. This specialization ensures that students will be able to master this segment of the industry. The site currently boasts a half-dozen up-and-coming online poker pros that have become whizzes on the virtual felts.
Leading the pack is Casey “bigdogpckt5s” Jarzabek, who has not one, but two titles in Full Tilt Online Poker Series, or FTOPS, events. He also has wins in some of the online poker world’s most prestigious tournaments, including the Sunday Mulligan and Sunday Second Chance. The Canadian has been ranked atop the PokerStars and Full Tilt leaderboards on Official Poker Rankings and has received a bundle of face time on the online poker forum PocketFives.com.
Charles “Hagbard Celine” Sizemore is also an instructor at Tournament Poker Edge. Sizemore is a two-year pro that has recorded victories in a PokerStars World Championship of Online Poker (WCOOP) Second Chance event, the UB.com $200,000 Guarantee, and the PokerStars Nightly Hundred Grand.
Joining Sizemore and Jarzabek is Ryan “HITTHEPANDA” Franklin, who turned in a profit of over $400,000 last year. Franklin has owned Full Tilt, where he has wins in the site’s $150 Rebuy and $750,000 Guarantee. He also final tabled a European Poker Tour (EPT) Main Event in Portugal for $70,000.
Rounding out the Tournament Poker Edge crew are Jon “Wein” Wein, Derek “Killingbird” Tenbusch, and “RonFezBuddy.” The latter two are the co-founders of Tournament Poker Edge. Meanwhile, Wein has wins in the UB.com $200,000 Guarantee, PokerStars Nightly Hundred Grand, and three high-stakes rebuy tournaments. Wein is also a former #1 player on the Official Poker Rankings leaderboard, a designation he held until Jarzabek bumped him off in March 2010.
The site has a variety of pricing plans for you to choose from, including a $19.95 per month option. You can also opt for a three-month subscription for $57.95, a six-month subscription for $109.95, or get one year of Tournament Poker Edge training for $199.95, a savings of $40 over the monthly rate. No matter what you choose, no signup fees are involved.
A membership to Tournament Poker Edge will get you unlimited access to the site’s library of videos; several new ones are added daily. The site offers its library in WMV, Flash, and Apple formats, ensuring that you’ll always have a way to watch what you’ve paid for. You will also receive invites to exclusive freerolls and other member events that Tournament Poker Edge offers.
One of the more unique aspects of Tournament Poker Edge is the “Ask the Pros” forum, which features an onslaught of questions from members and responses from pros. Each of Tournament Poker Edge’s pros has been active on major online poker forums like PocketFives.com or TwoPlusTwo; therefore, responding to member inquiries is second nature and makes Tournament Poker Edge one-of-a-kind. In many cases, pros have chimed in within a few hours.
Videos include critiques on the $5 rebuy, UB.com 500, and $12 180-mans. On the “Theory” side of the coin, Jarzabek released a video devoted to the concept of floating and Sizemore has contributed a video about playing from the blinds. Pros have also submitted blogs, allowing you – the reader – unique insight into the lives of your favorite poker instructors.
The bottom line is that if you’re looking for high-quality tournament instruction, look no further than TournamentPokerEdge.
