Poker X Factor  

PokerXFactor Member Testimonials  

When I joined PXF, I had never cashed in a tournament for over $10,000. Then I joined in June, and had FOUR cashes over $10,000 in under 3 weeks. So yeah, I guess it works. Thanks alot.   voff voff voff

I think [PokerXFactor's] video quality is very good. The material is great, and both Bax and Sheets do a great job narrating and I find them both to be entertaining. After just a month and watching a few videos, I have been using what I have learned and won my first 180 man sit-n-go on Pokerstars today. I have had the big stack in tournaments before, but never really knew how to play it well....but after watching your videos, I feel much more comfortable with a big (or short) stack. I have seen steady improvements in my game. Great site. Thanks guys!    rolledup_AAA

I have been playing online for 3 years and home games for 20+ years. I haven't made a FT for over almost a year in the MTT's online. I joined PXF less than two weeks ago...I just made a FT in MY FIRST MTT THAT I PLAYED SERIOUSLY (I voluntarily donated in the cheap tourneys), a 1274 man tourney and took 5th after some nasty beats. THANKS PXF. It is well worth the $$$$ invested. Can you do anything about bad beats? I guess not. You are only human. Oh well, see ya at the tables.   emotivator

Had been a subscriber before, but didn't renew because I was mainly playing cash games. I saw that Rizen was doing cash game vids, and I have started to refocus on tournaments. So I resubscribed Tuesday. Watched a dozen videos trying to view some of each pro. Played some 180 man sngs. The vids help not just in watching and incorporating some different styles, but I am also able to evaluate my own play much better. It paid off Friday. Final tabled the Stars $33 deep stack tourney. Finished fifth for $550. This after not even playing my best game. Pokerxfactor has already paid for itself. Keep up the great work.Will keep you updated because I am sure more final tables and that elusive win are not far off.   mwyell

Much improved. If I'm not winning or placing in the money in SNG's I enter, I'm at least making a good run at almost every single one I enter. I also came in 2nd in a tourney in A.C. for $1600 a few days ago.   DRoss

I have found the MTT vids from all authors very helpful. The hand analysis is extremely in-depth [yet] still communicates to a general (poker) audience. I've only had PXF for a matter of days and placed 4th in $100 MTT (still need to work on my endgame!) Thanks heaps + keep it up!   revirjohn

Hey a big thanks to you guys. This is the site I've been looking for for a long time. I've always told my friends that watching final tables on television is nice but how did they get to those final tables. And now just watching and listening to you guys work through tourneys and SNGs is fantastic. While my success has been steadily growing over the last three years this site has already provided me with insights and techniques I'm sure would've taken a lot longer to discover on my own. Yesterday I went deep into the Bodog $100,000 and then right after that came in 2nd for $685.00 in a $30 No Limit tourney. Thanks again guys and I look forward to experiencing greater results.   bkaderhold

Just thought I would give you an update on my progress since joining PokerXFactor: Joined back in February, I used to play primarily cash games only with mixed results. Switched to primarily sng tournaments at the beginning of February. My average buy-in is $72.00 and my ROI is about 7%. I have made about 14K since February and have also won a seat in the WSOP this year. I have decided to keep the cash though. Will try to win another seat at the RIO on July 5th. That brings my total earnings to about 25K. I do attribute a great deal of my success to your video tutorials. It plugged a lot of leaks in my game. I would be happy to share additional info if you would like. Thanks again for your help! I love the site! Dave ItalianWolf    pass600

..this month I've made 8 Final Tables and 7 Money Finishes in $4 & $5 180-360 entrant tournaments on Pstars. I attribute [some of my success] to PFX lessons. That tells me my potential and future looks very, VERY bright now since I've joined PFX. PFX has plugged holes in my game. It taught me to treat this game very, very, seriously. PFX has taught me how to use table image, WHAT to fold/raise, when to put all on the line, and taught me more about aggression. I absolutely love the commentary by JohnnyBax, he is truly a unique gift to the poker world and if I could, I would personally tell him he's one of my heroes. In my first video he said, "...it's an honor to play on Sundays..", the meaning behind that meant so much to me, it literally changed my way of thinking about poker. Every time I sit down, I say to myself, "I'm a pro, my bankroll will improve very soon. Play smart, play hard, and remember, its an HONOR to play this game." Thank you Cliff, that quote has given me eternal perseverance for this game, I can't live without it. I just LOVE poker. I truly believe I have a knack for this game, I've been successful without PFX but I think I'm going to be a LOT luckier since joining. Anything I can do to manipulate luck in my favor is always nice. I've made it my goal this year to win the $15k Guaranteed on Pstars. I believe I'll make that final table, and I hope many times. I'll report my results then. Good luck guys, and show ALL the hands. Not just the ones you raise. Peace Joey   PolyCrypt

Well I gotta say after 2 days that I joined I'm seeing results in my play. Playing better and playing real poker, not all-in poker. Getting to a final table is a big relief. Now I know that I can go deep in a tourney and its a confidence boost.   YoungVic

PokerXFactor has already paid for itself within the first week of joining. I have been placing deep into many tournaments lately. I also made my first final table in a big tournament, I cant believe it. Results came so fast and easy.   hicks19

Once I adapted my game with the suggestions of the PXF pro's, I have seen a great deal of success. I have won two tournies, and final tabled 3 others in the last week alone. Keep up the good work, and i will try to do the same :)   lilOUmikey

I Just wanted to say thanks for all the great videos. The live videos are the best. I love the real time commentary and thought process. I just had my first major win last night in the FT 40K. Took down over 14K. I couldnt have done it without all the middle/late tourney play strategies I've learned from your site. Keep up the great work. Thanks Again!!    orlandobum

Since I have joined I have slow and steady progress using the techniques I have learned. My goal was to become a mistake proof SNG player and work towards improving my MTT play. This week I finally hit the big score I was looking for, in FullTilt Poker's daily double jackpot by final tabling both tournies simultaneously ($7500). Thank you so much for the videos and hopefully I and other small buy in players can move our way up the ranks.   gooddawg

Now two months have passed since I joined PxF, and I have mainly watched Sheets' videos. I think they're great, I think they're very inspiring, and I'm definitively going to watch a lot more of them.    McMelchior

Hey Guys, My results have improved dramatically since joining pokerxfactor.com. Before joining the sight I was not able to make a final table ever while playing MTT. Since joining the sight a few months ago, I have made several final tables, including 3rd place at a Full Tilt $11 MTT with over 350 players in the tournament.    GeckoMike

It's been maybe about a week. I took first in a $7 tourney on Bodog for 750. And I have been getting really deep in the others that I've been playing. You guys have let a monster out of me. I've got to learn to temper my aggression. I had monster stacks with five people to go on the bubble and pushed. Both time I got creamed. I'm learning though. So I decided to stop playing and just learn a little more.   harlemdragon

Ok, this is pretty sick. I joined the site on the 27th of jan 2007. Since then, I have had my MTTs ROI bumped from below zero to 500%, ITM in 42% of the 40 tourneys I played (mostly 20$ buy in), for a net profit of 7k. I hit a 2nd place for 2.8k, then another for 1.9k, then another for 1k, and 1k , and 1k... It's sick, I have no other words. You guys are SICK. Do yourself a favour and ban me coz a few more videos and I'll kick your azzes in no time. Noooo time.   odi_profanum

I have been a Sub for just about a month and have seen improvements in my game. I have been watching Rizen's Cash games and definitely my Cash games have improved 80%. I am still watching and learning MTT's, I think I have improved 60% in MTT. My style is more like Belowabove and JohnnyBax combined. I really would like to achieve 100%, combining Rizen, JohnnyBax & Belowabove's style.    Ace-Josh

Hey Sheets, Bax, and mindwise, I gotta tell you guys I love the site and my poker skills in particular at sit n gos have improved quite a bit.    PURA VIDA

I had been looking at the forum and using the hand replayer for a while, but only subscribed last month. Wish I had done it months ago! The videos are fantastic. They have helped me to be a lot more aggressive and given me the confidence to make moves that I would never have made before. The forum is friendly and people are always willing to help with any queries or hand analysis. Being able to upload multi hand histories has helped me find weaknesses in my game. I spent the whole of last weak watching videos and decided to play some $4 180 SNG's at the weekend. Previously I had only ever cashed in one of these (14th). Well, on Friday night I got a second place, and Saturday I got a third. Subscription fee paid for, and then some! This site has totally transformed my game. Worth every penny. It has given me great self belief that I can become very good at this game. PS: the new Wiki is a great idea!    madazfuq

Hi - I was losing money at FullTilt.com's SNGs - I placed about 1 in 3 tournaments - I've been an PXF member for 3 days and have seen the first 3 or so videos on SNGs - and today I went back to Full Tilt to attack the SNGs - and played 3 in a row with two 4th places and a 6th!! The quality of the videos I've seen was very good, except for the one with the audio problems - but the content was so good you left it in - and it was one of the first videos so I am sure that has been solved. That's the scoop! Thank you for your website!!   Birny

Hi, just wanna say what a great help PokerXFactor has been for me since I registered last week. I cashed yesterday in my first pokerstars million take over $500 (my AA got did out by trip 8's) and have won 2 $30 MTT's and a $22 MTT in the past week. I always like to watch the vids of the type of matches I'm gonna enter, learning from you guys. Thanks again everyone.   danol21

My game has improved greatly since joining your site. I was always a decent player but from watching your videos it has really helped me play small pot poker instead of getting my chips all in for coin flips. Since joining your site I find myself going deep in just about every tournament I play in either bubbling sometimes or just making it into the cash. I'm still learning from your late tournament strategy. My first major tournament after watching your videos was the 400K guarantee on Full tilt in which I got 33rd for almost 1500. This money has allowed me to play higher games more frequently which is allowing me to steadily increase my bankroll. I have also satellited into numerous FTOPS events which are coming up soon on Fulltilt. Thanks JohnnyBax, Sheets, and all the PXF Team.   mackattack19

This is my second day using PokerXFactor. I couldn't be happier. Two months ago I was playing the best poker I had at this point in my career. I won 7k that month on MTT. Then I went cold I kept blaming the cards but after two weeks I was reading on PocketFives[.com], about your great training tools. The very first night of watching Belowabove 150 MTT on stars I entered the next tourny a 10 buyin 4.5k on bodog. I won it, I felt like the training I got in that one session with belowabove help me plug a few holes. I hope to keep advancing my game but thanks for helping me get off on the right foot.   cmahn13

I've been waiting for this day since I joined xfactor about 1 month ago. Before joining I couldn't seem to finish a tourney to save my life, let alone get deep in one! One of the main reasons I joined was due to reading other players' success after they joined and i always wanted to write one myself! Now to the point, the last 2 weeks have been a huge success, just some cashes to note- 6th in the pokerstars 100k nightly for 5k, 4th in a full tilt 75$ double stack for 2400$, 2nd in a full tilt 75$ double stack for 2k, and after these runs with no wins I watched ample ft videos and this week I have won the full tilt 150$ 3:00 tourny for 9k and the pokerstars 55$ 25k guarntee tourny for 11k IN THE SAME DAY!!!!!!!! For all you doubters db me, suitedace87 on stars and pokerchump87 on full tilt, the results speak for themselves!!! THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING!!!!!   Suitedace87

Before joining PXF I had already won more than my share of MTT's, but after just a few videos a couple of pretty big leaks in my game became glaringly apparent. Never before has it been so easy to build up so many chips so consitently. This is the next best thing to having a top player personally mentor you. It will help players of any skill reach that next level. SNG's and cash games too.   Setosixes

I have never even been able to make it past the 2nd hour in rebuy tournaments until I watched a couple of your videos. This was my 3rd night in a row coming in at least top 30. I am set on winning one soon! I am having problems with late game play. I always seem to have a medium stack at the last 2 or 3 tables. How do I build it up so as to not get eaten alive by blinds with chip leaders at my table?   robyn_fresh

Hey guys just wanted to say that since subscribing 2 weeks ago results have def[initely] improved. This weekend took down 2 100 rebuys on Stars, one in the afternoon on Friday and then the big one in the afternoon on Sunday. The videos are incredibly helpful in fixing leaks in my game, Bax and Sheets u guys are geniuses for sure. Seen quite a few of the videos in the past 2 weeks and they are all top notch, and I like how u have guest videos to provide a look at different styles played (BeLOW is such a sicko!). Anyway just wanted to say thanks for all the help your site provides, and was also curious why my results arent showing up on the scrolling leaderboard. Looking forward to more great content, and u can def count on me passing the word around of how helpful your site can be.    Chipsteela

well shortly after joining PxF i watched several sheets and bax SnG vids then got into a $33.00+$3.00 SnG with KrazyKanuck and 8 others that seemed to know what was going on, and i SPANKEDUM <---is that a word? lol and got myself a tourney entry chip + #10.00 not bad after 2 days   floatin gears

I've been playing for three years. I've done ok, have always been profitable, but also have always known there are big leaks in my game. I've been tweaking my game lately, and a player I respect recommended your site. I watched videos all day today, especially rizen's low limit cash games because I would say rings have always been my weakest game. I sat 1/2, played completely differently than i usually do, heard rizen in my head, and paid for my membership and a year's worth of monthly subscription in about an hour. I'm not saying anything other than these videos showed me how much I have to learn. Looking forward to watching and rewatching more. Thank you!   simplemath

Since joining pokerxfactor my game has improved considerably. My scope has increased in low level SnGs on stars under $10, and today I won my first tourney 5 dollar freeze out on ultimate bet winning a nice $130. I used the aggressive play when neaded and stole a lot of hands pre flop. The video content is marvelous and i have only just scratched the surface in viewing them. My money invested in signing up to this site is well worth it and now am playing without any help from poker office because I am learning to read players without relying on software. Keep up the good work excellent work.    mick rice

My tournament/S&G results have skyrocketed since joining PXF. I never liked tournaments much because I always busted out somewhere in the middle or just short of the money. Since joining PXF I am consistently cashing in MTT and S&Gs now. Putting together all of the information that you guys put out there has really opened my eyes to things that I had never really put any thought into before. Thanks for this site and all you guys do. It is much appreciated. I know I've run across some of you deep in tourneys, and I really enjoy that. Thanks again.   Ace10Suted

l hit rock bottom, l had read books, visited forums and still l was out of ideas, had no inspiration and felt like l was out in a cow paddock knee deep in poo, with $1 in my poker account and pretty much looking to toss the towel in and give it away l saw the add for PXF. lt was the one thing l was yet to try, so l turned to PXF as pretty much my last resort, before giving the game away. l arrived not looking for a miracle or a quick fix but some new ideas, better advice and another approach to the game. l decided l would give them 6 months to see if they could help this fish swim. Today, six weeks after joining, l won my first MTT freeze out, and l am on the road to becoming a poker player at last, a massive thank you to all at PXF, l will die here. Do yourself a favour join, it's the best money l've ever spent, well except for a slap dance ;-)   zzeds dead

Played a few tourneys today -- 189th in Sunday Million, a little over 1K. Not bad considering I made 2 misclicks and 3 all out donk mistakes that cost me a sizeable amount of chips.Used a couple of new moves from the recordings and they worked well! Thanks.   Speculate

I joined a week ago [and since have] made two final tables. On a $30 on stars 3rd for 1595.00 and on tilt 4th in the 30k 6 hand for 2800.00. Almost made another on [Full]tilt -- finished 14, it was a $69 but i was a big donkey and deserve to be shot. Finished deep in a couple more and in the money on one on stars and one or two on [Full]Tilt but not for much money. Thanks it is helping alot.   IceBlue69

First of all guys i have to thank you so much for putting together this magnificent site. I have been playing poker for nearly 2 years now and I had been finding it difficult to achieve the same sucess in my online game as i have in my live game. Thanks to PokerXFactor, especially Sheets for his general overview of playing the short stack without becoming disheartened, I have vastly improved my game. I have been with PokerXfactor for just under 2 weeks now and in the past 2 nites I made a 5th place finish in the 100 freezeout 3k starting stack on stars for $3000, a 5th place in a 20 dollar 1 optional rebuy and add on tourney last nite for another $1000 dollars and a 25th place in another 100 freezeout. PokerXFactor has helped my game in such a short amount of time and I look forward to viewing some more videos to strengthen my game further. Thank you guys.   cod meharly

I joined about 3-4 months ago, I think, I have watched around 100 vids or more. My game has really improved, both live and online. Out of about 12 live MT casino tournaments so far this year I have cashed in 4 of them, taking 1st, 4th, 5th and 5th, I am getting in the money on (SNG)line 1 of 3 tournys, and winning about 1/3 of the time I get in the money. not hitting the money as often in MTT online and that is the only place i am lagging. Last year I played at casino tournaments probably 20 times and cashed only once I think for 3rd. I am completely dominating the neighborhood tournament (1 to 2 tables) winning probably 7 of 20 and getting in the money about 14 of 20. vs last year winning and cashing maybe 15-20% at best. I watch the videos almost every night for 2 hours. I will be going to vegas for the June 15th $1500 no limit tourney and look forward to getting into the money and making the final table. Thanks for all your help and sharing your knowledge, hopefully will be able to meet either Bax or Sheets someday at a final table.   gregolas

I joined PXF last year to improve my MTT and SNG play - and I did. But recent cash game videos by Rizen are what are finally making me a winner at the tables. PXF isn't known as being a cash game site, but those videos are helping me maintain a PTBB of 11.54/100 over 66,000 hands. My beginning cash game bankroll of $45 has turned into more than $500. Thanks PXF! L8Bloomer   L8Bloomer

I subscribed to pokerxfactor this morning and watched the bax $55 mtt videos and apestyles sunday million videos. I started watching apes video as i started the $22 1 rebuy 1 addon on stars. I then finished watching the videos in time for the final 3 tables of my tournament. Went on to win the tournament without a chop for over $5,700. INVESTMENT WELL WORTH IT!   papa_dp

Just finished the 35k guaranteed tourney number 39824447 on poker stars. Prize pool was 52k and really pleased to report that i did a 50/50 split for first and second netting 8100 dollars, outlay 11 dollars no rebuys. I have been playing for just over a year now with a little success but things are really starting to come together. This is my second final table in a week IE last nine tourneys on poker stars -- big fields, which I like, for little outlay. I also made the final table at a local casino last week. I have no doubt that these results would not be possible without me having joined PXF a little over two months ago thanks Sheets and bax and everyone else at the PXF team.    sedgy575

I was skeptical at first when a friend recommended your website but after a short time I have made big strides in my game. I have recently won over four thousand dollars (all in 100-200 SNG's) in 3 weeks, so it's not like I got "lucky" with one big win. I have been very consistent and I don't plan on looking back. I was always a decent player but I've made big gains since joining your site. Thanks a lot.    monkey man

Guys, Thank you so much! I have learned a ton from your site already! I joined a few days ago and have watched several videos. Prior to joining your site, I had never cashed in a mtt. Today, I took 3rd winning over $400 in a 351 person multi table on Full Tilt! Thank you again!    GeckoMike

Hey Guys, I don't play tourneys often, just the Sunday majors (I play cash games for a living). Today was a pretty good day tourney-wise for me. I definitely can attribute the success to what I've learned from watching videos and hh-replays here. 12th in UB 200k and 5th in FTP 400k today. Also, back in October I ended up qualifying for the Aussie Millions on FTP in one of the 7 seat freerolls (opted out though due to family complications). Since I've spent time learning here I'm finding myself going deeper into the few tourneys that I do play. Thanks for the help guys!    jrbick

I have been a member of PXF almost since it started. The site has helped my game tremendously. I am able to learn better by watching videos of other players than from reading a book. I have learned more in 6 months on your site than in 2 1/2 years of reading.    Wotan

Thank you! My first cash in the WPT event #2 750$ buy in at the Borgata last night. Could not have made it without the videos, Sheets' SNG lecture really helped when I was short stacked and had to push or fold. Don't want to bore you guys with compliments but your training videos have changed the way I play and I would have never cashed without them.    Jeffrey21737

I'm more satisfied as a consumer with the product offered by PokerXFactor than any other product or service I've ever encountered. That is all.    NY Knights 9

I'm doing much better in MTT's, have a bad run in SNG's but I lost many many races where i was huge... PXF is great, obviously.    yvoutime

I was a decent winning player when I came to PXF, but this last month has been the reason I decided to join. I've cracked off several 180-man wins, cashed in the Sunday Million on Stars, won a micro freezout with ~1000 runners, and then today chopped the 10r $35k Guarantee on Stars. Guys, MY ROLL WENT 50X IN THE LAST 3 WEEKS. Thank you so much for your efforts; there is nothing out there like this.    donkfu

I've been a PokerXFactor member for almost a month now. In that time, I've watched a lot of SNG videos from Bax and Sheets. I first moved up to the 105 + 9 SNG's on stars after I took in all the knowledge I could. Since then, I've cracked the Sharkscope leaderboard for 100 to 300 dollar turbo SNG's at 14th (while only playing 105 + 9 games) and have made just under 10k in profit. If you are really serious about becomming a strong poker player, then I would highly recommend listening to Bax, Sheets, and the rest of the crew. Thank you PokerXFactor!    kurt23x

Wow. In the last 18 days I've had the following results in very large multi table tournaments (micros: Avg buyin of $2). 34 Tourneys, 11 Cashes and 2 Final tables with a profit of $18. My games still needs lots of work, but it has improved by leaps and bounds since joining this site. I highly recommend PokerXFactor. Everything is first class. - rlient    rlient

I joined about three weeks ago and spent the first week looking at videos. I play micro and low limit sng. Initially, I was trying to get off TAG style particularly close to sng bubbles and get more aggressive. Shoved too much, case of overdoing it I think. This may work a little better against higher stakes players? In last couple of weeks I have done a better job of blending a selective application of the more aggresive style into my older TAG game with really good results. My ROI is rising and I have been in the money in close to 70% of my games with a couple of first place finishes, and a few 2nd or 3rds. It helped develop patience in the multitable sng tourneys. I definitely think that what I have learned has significantly helped my confidence level and my game. I expect to improve more, as time goes on and move up. PXF was a good investment for me.    text

I'd just like to start off by saying that this was a genius idea for a site. I've been playing online poker for several years now and just this past year I won $40k in just MTT's which led me to think I was a solid player. But as time went on I began to wonder if maybe I wasn't playin my best poker, as I constantly watched people like JohnnyBax or Sheets cash consistently whereas I would cash every now and then. Since I joined PokerXFactor i've been able to find many leaks in my SNG game (which supplements my MTT bankroll) and I've been absolutely crushing SNG's. Sheets' explanation of +EV and -EV was incredible and i just wanted to thank you guys for taking the time to post these videos. Keep up the good work.    text

Hi thx for all your efforts. I came 6th in the Bapta tourney in Singapore just b4 xmas, i collected $73,000 for my efforts. But having spent most of my 3 days sat next to tonyG the eventual winner, I left feeling proud of my result as I am a play 4 fun player but with a relisation that I am clueless. I did play well for my skills, i recognised very early that playing tonyG past your hole cards was a waste of chips and watched him tear people apart that tried. So I made good reads on him and he doubled me though a few times. But I didnt have a chance of winning playing as I did with TonyG and Lee Nelson on the FT. This has been a pattern in my MTT results over the 2 years I've been playing. I heard about PokerXFactor and as i am a rail bird to many of my friends, they thought I could get my moneys worth just watching the pros win tourneys. For the 1ast 2 days I didn't play; I watched most of Johnnybax and Sheets' vedios and Rizens Sunday mills win. A life changing moment, and I have the added experience of knowing what it feels like to be a tight solid player, with the players to your right attacking your blind all the time. I've just won a $10 rebuy on stars I changed gears more times than i can remember as the tables changed and the chip stacks moved to left or right of me. I dominated every table I was on from about 5 tables out, when we were down to 4 I had over half the chips in play.and it's so much more fun than waiting 4 Aq taking a stance and Aj whipping me out, cuz i didnt have enough chips. I've had 2nds and 3rds in 180s and wins in 27 and 18 seaters, and STTs seem so much easier. Thx alot for all your efforts; I feel I am on my way to being able to defend myself on any table. Maybe just another 10 years will do it lol.    cheezy

Hey Guys, Just wanted to let you know you've helped my game tremendously. I got first on the leader board on bodog last week with 2 wins and a third place finish among my cashes. Jan. 29th was my first MTT win ever, $25 buy in 396 players for $3000 and then 2 days later I got 1st in a $20 rebuy for another $1800. For player of the week I got to play David Williams last night heads up for $4000. I beat him in 25 hands. You guys are great. Thanks Again.    dtodd97

Amazed at the change in my game. Without making huge changes I've gone from rarely cashing to having 11 cashes in 50 tournies with 5 final tables. My expectations have gone from being happy when cashing to now being upset when finishing 4th. The videos are all of an exceptionally high quality. The difference between the pros shows how different styles can work to get the same end goal. Sheets and Rizen videos are excellent at explaining the math behind different situations. Johnnybax's videos are good at showing how well aggression works at winning pots and explaining how certain betting patterns show how reads can be determined online (also good at showing how to slowplay certain types of players). Many thanks to all at the site, Good luck to all subscribers.    deaky

Hi there! I`ve played poker for some years now, but I still think I have a lot to learn so I decided to learn from the best... I signed up at PXF Monday 05/02/07 and watched so many videos in the training center as possible for the next few days. Thursday the same week I decided to play a 10$ freeze 15kG at stars with 1898 entrants...I ended up winning it and added 4100$ to my bankroll..The next day I played a 10kG at prima (6-handed) and ended up winning it as well for another 3000$..The investment of a membership had already paid off , but it wasn't over... The next day after that I joined the Nightly Grand tournament at stars (buyin 162$) and finished 3rd for another 11,5k$... So after one week with a PXF memebership I have already earned 17,5k$!! My game was not bad before , but I was tired of busting early on the FT every time... PXF has learned how to think and play in a better way so I`m very thankful to you guys!    JohnnyBelow

Fantastic. I joined last week and i'm $7.5k up as a result of what I've learnt from Bax's rebuy strategy and Sheets' shortstack strategy. PXF is probably the best investment I've made since I bought my computer.    furniss

Well I have been a sub for a month now. The videos are a great learning tool. You guys are really great players; I watch johnny, sheets, below, rizen, brsavage -- wow you guys got BALLS and that's why you guys are the best in the internet. I use some of the stuff that in my tourneys it works some time but you got these nuts that call with any 2 cards. And this will never change see cause i play in the lower limit tourneys like from $3 to $10 even the rebuys. I been trying the $10 rebuys got close twice but no good it's hard to fight against the big stack. See I try to raise when I'm in postion and every one fold to me and they still fight back it's not easy. Well enough of me just want to say that you guys really break down video's with alot of information that"s really good stuff I guess it will start to work some day and maybe just maybe one one day I'll be able to play a big tourney.Oh not to say that I didn't try already I did once in the sunday million I won it in a sit n go.And I have to say it was wild and heart breaking at the same time. Well guys keep up the great work and maybe one day I will be seating next to you guys in the final table hehehe fwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaacha.    text

I have been playing online poker for approx 3 years... I was playing pokerstars from the very beginning, playing with JohnnyBax on a daily basis. After my first 6 months i have always made a profit from the game, but only a small one. That was until i joined this site. I considered myself a competent player, but not a good one. PokerXFactor has changed all that. I now play less MTTs, play higher stakes, and win much much more. I'm over 50,000 dollars up in the last 3 months from playing maybe 150 tournies only. I have won the 300 short handed on full tilt for 19k in December(the_clarkatroid), 5th in the sunday million for 32k(clarkatroid) and countless other big cashes(9k last night in the 55 rebuy), and I credit all these winnings to your training, (you cant have any of it though.lol). The site is amazing, the quality of videos are excellent, the expertise of your tutors is top notch, I am slowly turnng from a competent experienced MTT player into a good one. Keep up the good work, I particularly enjoy all Bax videos and rizen is an excellent coach. Overall, it's a great site, it's worth every penny, keep developing it as you are, you all deserve all the success you get.    ladyluck22

I joined about a week ago, and I already won my first online tournament, Bodog.com's $4,500 guaranteed(rebuy).I had made final tables in the past, but these videos helped fill some of the holes in my game, and I used alot of the trainers' concepts and implemented alot of their techniques into my game (like Sheets short stack ninja video) to finally take home a first prize of $1,336. Thanks again to all the PokerXFactor trainers!!!    RxBandit

Guys, Thank you so much for creating such an incredible site. Since joining I have taken a rapidly depleting bankroll and increased it by 400%. I am now a force again at SNGs. I am cashing any average of 60% with a 4 to 1 return on my money. This site is a must for anyone serious about improving their game. My next goal is to improve on MTTs and to win a seat for a professional event. I have been close before but now I am confident that I have the skill necessary to move to the next level. Thanks again for the superior instruction.    jnivo

Just to let all the beginning and middle of the road players know, this is the site that will allow you to start winning. This site has painted the picture that I was always missing when I played in online tourneys. If you are a small cash game player or like to play in small tourneys or the 10000 man freerolls on Pokerstars, the info found here is the key to success. I have finished in the top 20 in four different 5000 and 10000 man tourneys since signing up last month. Not to mention that I have found that I can win something every time I sit down at a 5$ SNG.    SGTBROWN4

Prior to joining PokerXFactor, I couldn't record any major scores in online tournament poker. After watching about 15 videos and 2 months later, I chopped a $3 rebuy for $2300 and won a $9 tourney for over $800. Well worth the money.    twoblack9s

I am a micro or low level sng player mostly, and joined about 6 weeks ago. I already knew a lot of the basic math and had a ROI of about 35% (nearly 40% now) in micro sng, so I was a fair player at least at those levels. I am upgrading my game to allow me to move up, so was doing a lot of reading and decided to join PXF. I think that the videos are great, have watched almost all the sng ones. I definitely learn more watching the game unfold than just reading books and articles. I will start with some of the tournament ones next. The biggest difference in my game is to be able to go from TAG, to loosen up approaching the bubble and know who to attack to accumulate some chips, and when to do it. I definitely play a medium stack much better, know what to push or shove with and basically when to do it. My confidence in my game has gone way up in the last six weeks, and even if I don't win or get in the money, most times I made the correct play. Most videos I looked at (Bax, sheets, or Ini) are at least a little different in style of play. I relate more to Bax style, but like sheets for the bubble play. Ini's sng on playing the bubble with only a big blind or so was very interesting. Again, I know the math but was able to use the principles to get into the money in my last tourney even though I only had one premium hand and was shortstacked the whole way. You have a great teaching site going here, and I expect to learn a lot more. I don't ever plan or need to make a lot of money playing poker (comfortably retired a few months ago), but I am competitive and like the challenge of the game. I want to play well, and be a winning player at whatever level I chose. So, thanks PXF.    cowboy301

I have been a member of PokerXFactor for about a week. I watched a few videos and just sat back and listened. I seemed to constantly be "on the bubble" and short stacked once the antes kicked in. After a few videos I have placed 3rd in a 240 person MTT and 5th in a 579 MTT! I have my first two good cashes ever, and in a row! I turned my $150 investment for PXF and turned it into $650! I look forward to being a serious contender in all my tournaments from now on! Thank you PXF!    thebat43

Paid for the subscription today... made the money in 6 out of 7 SNG's. Just after watching 2 videos. I have been playing for a while now, both live and online. I am an AVID viewer of ANY tournament or cash game on television, and have read MANY books about poker. I knew how the game was played, but UNTIL TODAY, did not know HOW TO PLAY... all that has changed, and I have a new outlook on my game. THANK YOU for this website... it's already money well spent!!! Good luck at the tables!!!!    rjfire15

PXF has already paid for itself. Signed on a week ago, watched almost all the videos. All the players featured on this site are both worthy and respected players. From their teachings, I've won 4th in a 50Rebuy this week for $4100, then 2nd in the 150 Nightly hundred grand on Pokerstars last night for 21.5K. Not bad for a $199 initial investment. Keep the videos comin'.    jodog

The site is great and I have learned a lot since joining. I am playing better poker than ever before, more selective aggression and fold a lot of great hands that might have otherwise put me out.    BonsaiAce

41 cashes and 7 final tables [in the last month]... ty PokerXFactor. My game is getting better every time I play.    walt75904

Before signing up I was having the worst results I've ever had in 2 years and completely blew my entire bankroll. After watching the videos , I fixed some holes in my game and turned a $50 deposit into $5000 in under 6 weeks. Bax and Sheets approach the game very differently but both explain why they do everything clearly and it's perfect for the times you want to switch gears. The guests pros are top notch and the site just keeps getting better.    NewMike

I knew I was a decent player but I had few leaks in my game. I started playing 2 years ago. When I joined, I stopped playing tourneys for 5 days and dedicated myself on improving my game by watching the MTT videos and analyzing my game. It was the best thing I ever did. Yesterday I started playing tourneys again and I am still speechless. Joining here was the best thing that happened to my game and my confidence.    Nelson

Before I joined PokerXFactor, I was a winning player at the SNG level but never could bring myself to do too well in multi-table tournaments. Since joining however, I have seen my bankroll skyrocket. Bax and Sheets' videos have taught me many things that would have taken me a great deal of time to learn for myself. They are largely responsible for my MTT success, and gave me so much confidence that I decided to make a goal for 50,000 dollars in one year. Thanks to their teachings, I have already accomplished a quarter of the goal. Thank you Bax and Sheets for what you have taught me and I highly recommend anyone that does not have PokerXfactor to get it, winning player or not.    Hodge05

Hi, I've been a member for 2 weeks and having better results in SNG. Then this past Sunday night I entered a $10 horse tourney... nice cash for me $1360. ... Last night I had 6 cashes SNG -- a first, 2 seconds, 2 thirds and the best was third in the $30 MTT tourney. Very nice night. Thanks again for the videos. I still need a lot of work, but nice results since signing up 2 weeks ago.    woody1948

I am doing much better. I have won some single table SnG's, placed in several more and took 2nd in a 27 player MTT SnG. Up to this point I had not won any single table SnG nor placed in any MTT SnG's. I plan on spending a lot more time here studying and learning. Thanks for the help.    Folletto

Hi, I came from another training video site and this one is a much better run business. I as well as others always learn from the winning videos and I especially like the replayer as it gives you a more in-depth look at the thought process ... Thank You! A new member most satisfied +6529 since joining.   Tyhunt

My decision-making has become much clearer because I am starting to THINK like Rizen, sheets, and Bax, categorizing situations the way the pros would. I've made one final table since joining ($5 / 1288 players, got 4th for $354), and my game is consistently improving. This has been worth every penny.   pneumo

Just won a little tourney on stars... I’ve been a member for 5 days and I watched a lot of videos and I feel what I have learned definitely helped me dominate this tourney ... ship $600.   lil_Gaz

I love the site! I always thought i was a pretty decent poker player, with a couple of small MTT cashes here and there, but never knew I could do so well after watching just a couple of Bax's and Sheets's videos! After being a subscriber for only a few days, I decided to make a $17 dollar deposit into pokerroom. By 3 tabling 5.50+.50 turbos I made my original deposit into almost $200 within only two days. I know this is a very small amount compared to a lot of subscribers at this site, but it wasn't the amount to me that mattered; it was how consistent I was playing, and how easily I was taking down each turbo I entered. I'm planning on building the bankroll much larger with the new skills I've learned, and hopefully start playing higher limits to an even higher bankroll! I do still have so much to learn, but this site was definitely a huge help to my game. Thanks guys, I really appreciate the service you are offering! P.S. More live videos of bax and sheets...    davewoods2

Heya all. I have only been a member 4 days, and already I have 2 Sit and Go Wins! My first 2 ever Back 2 Back! thanks PXF.   pureskunk420

Wanted to say thanks to Sheets for the SnG lecture series and his SnG videos. I recently made the leader board at sharkscope at my current level of SnGs mainly due to changes I made in my game thanks to sheets. Keep up the good work and I look forward to more of the SnG lecture series.   jackofheartz

I love your site, since becoming a member I have gone on to win and place in MTT and S&G tournaments, both online and live!   mr221

Thank you PXF. Just chopped up the 35k guaranteed on Pokerstars for my biggest win to date.   st2v23

I have won a couple of major tournaments in the past but lately I was running quite badly. Struggled to make it to the first break of any tournament I played. Though things did pick up at little bit, there was still something missing from my orginal game which brought me success. I registered with PokerXFactor and watched two videos which helped me find some very simple flaws my game had developed. The very next day I won the stars $20 rebuy. Thanks guys.   SneakOne

Joined your site last week. Since Saturday Sept 9th I have cashed in 9, count them, 9 tourneys. I know they are not for huge wins, but the fact that i seem to be getting consistent is very encouraging to me...   HPInspector

What's up guys?I listened to a total of about 2 hours of videos. My SNG win rate has gone from about break even (or worse. OK less than breakeven) to winning or making the money over 60% of the time...   Frostback

One month in and I just won a MTT with 278 entries, taking $400, which for me is a nice win! For me the site complements all the books I have read - you are watching the plays in a 'real life' context. I find ideas that I was aware of now make much more sense. In a book you get 1 or 2 examples, in the videos here you get to see so many more scenarios. It teaches you how to analyze and think about your plays and is so much more than a chart of starting hands. This really is the next level for the intermediate player. Keep up the good work.   Nitejester

Hey guys... Just to let u know that u really helped my game... Not just online, but live too... I won one of the wsop circuit events, the 215 second chance, with a field of 224 players. Thanks guys...   rickytaki

I signed up for pokerxfactor because i was in slump. I had not won a tournament in a few months, and was desperate for help. 3 days after signing up, I placed 4th in a 3r tournament, and then later that night placed 1st in an nl 50 tournament. I made well over 5K in just that one day! Needless to say, I love the site and can't wait to see what you guys have lined up for the future.    yeleven_bets

Thanks to PokerXFactor I have upped my play to another level. I have won several SNGs that there is no question I would not have seen the money, let alone win it all without PokerXFactor. Through the insight and knowledge that you have shared with me I have at times felt invincible at my table, never really getting nervous or upset about a beat. I feel like I am really moving ahead on the road to success and look forward to the months ahead.    JC_Saves

I think your site is awesome, great layout and content. Your hand analysis with the replayer is a great learning tool, it saves a lot of time when the dead hands come and you can get to the meat of the important hands. The replayer is a great tool for anyone to see their mistakes and review a game, I would love to see the chat and the number of players left in a tournament and the payout spots.    Bigfatdaddyo

I have won over 120k in the last 3 months and also 2 WSOP main event seats so both me and my wife will go for a free trip and free shot for millions. Thanks guys    GARFIELD25

I am a student of the game. I have learned more in two months at X Factor compared to the four years it took me to compile an in-depth poker library. My profits are through the roof.    Dicen

Today I took the plunge in a PokerStars $22 NL with 243 players and I won it for my first online Multi victory ever! While playing, I could hear Bax's voice in my head (with the New Yawk accent) helping to guide me all the way. I played with confidence and no fear of shoving my whole stack when necessary, the way it should be.    JudgeSmales

Your videos have done an amazing job in tweaking my tournament play and revamping my nonexistent tournament closing strategy. Since joining the site I've had over 70k in cashes including wins in the Paradise 100k, 40k, 20k and $100 rebuy some multiple times, not to mention winning my WSOP seat on stars.    JaspudUF

Guys, I just wanted to say thanks for making a great site. My goal for the year was to win one of the Paradise rebuys. I did last night, within two weeks of joining the X-factor. Been playing for two years and made my largest on-line score just after joining, nearly $10K.    Sobcheck72

Oh you guys have the best site on the Net! I think this is amazing to sit and listen Bax and Sheets, now Rizen and brsavage go over their thoughts on actual tourney play. This is making my game grow exponentially! I find myself more confident and moneying way more often. I play more aggressively yet under control.    Landman2069

I have been playing much more consistent and flowing through the fields with way more confidence. I spent a week in Vegas during the WSOP and played in many of the side events, just to see where I stood and fared extremely well. I won 2 tournaments at Harrah's and made my way through over 600 people at the Bellagio's $1000.    Jnelson214

In just one short month of my membership with PokerXFactor, I have 5Xed my cash game bankroll and have six mtt wins and innumerable stt wins and cashes. If you are ready to honestly look at your own play and take a giant leap forward in your game I strongly recommend PokerXFactor.    Professor77

The software is amazing, provides unique content: quizzes, uploading and sharing hand histories, Ask Bax/Sheets, etc. It differentiates this site from the others. Two nights ago I qualified for the WSOP on UB, a month after joining PXF...coincidence, I think not.    OrangeDragon

I was a decent tournament player with MTT wins and final table appearances. After joining the site last week, I noticed a few holes in my game and have corrected them. Now my confidence is through the roof and I feel unstoppable. The learning experience of watching real situations is far better than any poker book I've ever read.    jon_midas

It really is amazing how much my game has improved. I just looked at the last week and I didn't even realize but the last 9 SNGs that I have played on Poker Stars I have cashed in every one of them. My confidence is so high that I really have not paid attention to cashes.    JC_Saves

You can't put a pricetag on the information you get from Sheets and Johnnybax. It's like having Michael Jordan take you to the basketball court everyday and run drills with you. Thanks for your innovative teaching tool!    AK$ooted

Well shortly after joining PXF I earned my largest online cash. This was then followed by 4 more final tables in 3 weeks and then another 2 final tables on another site. I would recommend PXF to anyone who thinks their game could use a little work. Sheets and Bax are both complete wizards at the table and their thoughts behind play is incredible.    Holdmfoldm

Guys I have been playing good poker for a while and won a few big tourneys, but in the last couple of months my game has been really bad. Too many beats which have had a negative influence on my game. I have now been a member less than a week, and you have brought me back to play good solid poker again and made me even better...I just won a seat to the WSOP tonight.    RockogRul

PokerXFactor is finally giving me the confidence to move chips, capitalize on position, and plug the leaks in my game. My results in low buyin SNG and MTT on Party has skyrocketed. Thanks for making the game so much more enjoyable and profitable. This site is worth every penny.    MentalBen

I joined PokerXFactor 3 weeks ago, as a SNG player only. I started watching MTT videos and just made my first ever final table in the AbsolutePoker 100k guaranteed tournament, placing 3rd for $9200. There is no way I would have done this without PokerXFactor.    dblack

If you can't consistently win after watching these videos you should quit poker!! You guys have helped me find and correct the leaks in my game. I love how there is a new video or hand history everyday too.    -- Flywiithme

My SNG game is coming along nicely. Using the techniques that Bax and Sheets teach. Very good information on this site. The joining fee is nothing compared to what I am learning.    -- Bulletman99

Just won my 3rd ever tournament after hitting more final tables this last month than in the 20 months that Ive been playing online. 330 runners $8 freezeout netting $695. Thanks guys.    -- SYNERGY

I made back the cost of my first month within two hours of joining. The only thing I can tell my friends is they better join before their opponents do!    -- leprous_hand

Won paradise masters event 7 for $67k! Thanks sheets and bax!!    -- pirate-pab

First off I’ve really enjoyed the site, I think the layout is fantastic and thought the new "live SNG" video by Sheets was a nice change and certainly valuable. … In the last 3 days I have entered the same tournament and believe it or not actually won it twice. £10 entry paid around £600 both times. Near enough 150% sure that PokerXFactor has helped a great deal in these wins and would just like to thank you for everything so far!    -- onlyfools

Hi guys! Just finished playing a meager $10 PS NLHE SnG freezeout and came in 2nd place out of 27! …I'm writing this because while this may not be the greatest accomplishment in terms of financial gain, it is in terms of my much greater understanding of the game, and I've only been a subscriber for less than 48 hours!!! Sheet's fantastic videos on SNG's and the mindset that needs to be followed along with BAX's lectures on solid play and the value of position have immediately catapulted my game to skill level...no joke. Hands that I otherwise might have played went into the muck, reraises that I may have called got dumped, raises in position were made with a newfound aggressiveness regardless of the cards, and a whole new sense of the game has been awakened within me. Thank you both for your expertise and for your honest and sincere approach to these training videos. I'm only halfway through and can't wait to see the rest! I look forward to my subscription for a long time to come and to hopefully seeing the both of you at a table someday! Just as long as I don't get "BAXED"! LOL Thanks again!    -- Spenard DealMeInPlz

I wanted to thank PokerXFactor again. I won an entry into the UB 200 for $9. Ended up finishing 5th and winning $7100. By far the largest take in my poker career. I have been a member of the site since March 27th and this is my second final table during that period. In the year and half before that I only had four final tables. I appreciate your insights and your time . Once again, thank you for giving me the chance to improve my game.    -- threesrwild

Hey Guys! Just wanted to say thank you for teaching me the finer points of the game over the past month, and greatly improving my play. I recently moved to Poughkeepsie, New York and while searching for new employment I have also spent a lot of time on PokerXFactor and on stars grinding my way from $10 to a bankroll over $200. While I know that this is not a big deal to some, it is to me! My game has come full circle, and since I recently started a new job I now feel comfortable that I will be able to move up in stakes and find the same success. P.S. - I know that this is not what you want to hear, but I do not tell anyone about PokerXFactor (besides my bro who is a member) because I do not want other online players to be blessed with this information. If I were you I would take this as a complement, because truly speaks to the quality of the content.    -- Jturtleb

This site is definitely worth its weight in gold. Within 3 days of signing up I have final tabled 2x in a field of 80-100 players (with a win in one), and finished ever 1st or 2nd in the party poker 6 man sng 60% of the time. From the top 2 finishes I take 1st 80% of the time. Not to mention I almost won a seat to one of the preliminary events of the wsop on sunday (I had to settle for second b/c of a dumb mistake) This site has definitely improved my game 10 fold. And for the first time I have funds in more than one site at one time. Keep up the good work. You guys have definitely put together a great product.    -- menace3

Just dropping a short line to let you know that this site has greatly improved my game. I had never been on the TLB before this month, I am currently as of this post ranked #27 for the month of April and 11th for this week on PokerStars. Thanks for the great videos and the tournament, keep up the good work.    -- Boris Karloff

Sheets, Bax, Mindwise, and anybody else involved: thank you so much! This has been a great investment so far and this coming from someone who was very skeptical at first. But what can I say, your reputations as players precede you and your results are pretty impressive. Within one day of subscribing I had a great cash myself: I broke a very rough week-long downswing to beat out 179 others for a $1k cash. I wasn't a losing player previously and had won this same event before but I certainly noticed a difference this time around. I'm not even sure I could point you to many hands that I played radically different because of Sheets/Bax's advice - it was more of an unconscious thing, with your advice milling in the back of my head and manifesting in my play when I needed it to. Anyways, I still have a long way to go but really appreciate learning from you guys so far.    -- pariah

After a flat month of tournament poker in march, i decided to join PokerXFactor in order to try and find out what i was doing wrong. What a transformation, in April so far i came 2nd in a tournament on betfair for $5k, came 5th in the stars $150 for $5k (losing to one outer on river) and won my 2nd aruba package. Hats off to bax and sheets they know what they are talking about, cheers guys    -- pirate-pab

Thank you Bax! Thank you Sheets! Thank you PokerXfactor! I have been playing at bodog since november of last year, after playing at b&m cardrooms for several years. So far i have been a fairly successful cash player, winning consistently just about every month. My tournament play has been very disappointing though. I usually last to around the bubble. Sometimes cashing, but never really having that much success. I have always tried very hard to improve my game, i must have bought and read every poker book ever made, but it is just not same as being able to watch how a top player plays his hands and what he thinks about while he is playing. I am happy to say that I was able to win the bodog 25k rebuy tournament last night using several of the lessons that bax and sheets have tought me so far. I can honestly say that there is no way i would have won without using these lessons. I had several leaks in my game that i just didn't recognize before watching the training videos. I must say that I would highly recommend your site to anyone that wants to improve their game. It has definitely improved mine. Thanks again.    -- topdogsean

I Have been using your POKER X FACTOR for three weeks now. It has helped my game greatly, not only online but in Live action Tournaments as well. I have won 3 multi table tournaments on Poker stars with over 100 People...And have been finishing in the Money many times. Your lectures on each game you discuss our crystal clear. Anyone of any age would be able to understand and learn. Thank you and I hope my success increases and continues.. GOOD LUCK    -- Dunker

Just the sheer confidence level alone has saved me much more than the monthly fee. Ultra fast support responses. There is no comparison when you look at the price you will pay for a personal mentor. For those of you non-believing, trash talking railbirds one word of advice......FOLD!    -- Cster1

Hey guys-- Just wanted to let you know that the site is fantastic. I was skeptical about paying each month for training (as opposed to buying a book at a one time cost that you can read over and over), but I signed up during the initial phase, and I am more than impressed by the site and content. Sheets' and Bax's reasoning skills alone are great resources, and combined with the medium of the hand replayer is just awesome. I can say without a doubt that it is a mistake to not join this site, especially if you are serious about your tournament play. The insight that you will gain is amazing, and the site is not even a month old, so imagine the content that will be here a year from now. Thanks to mindwise, bax, and sheets, for starting this site. Since joining, I have gained new understanding of mid to short stack play, as well as big stack play and chipping up in the middle stages of tourneys. These are exactly the areas that I needed work on, and I feel 10x better about my decisions in tourneys already, and this is only the beginning. P.S. I don't know if it is a direct result of this site, but I took down the Full Tilt 19K Guar. on 4/2/06 for 5.5K, my biggest score by almost 3K. I'm confident that the time between scores will decrease as a result of joining this site.    -- Maits10

There is much information, wisdom and knowledge in these videos. I believe they have helped my game tremendously in just a couple of weeks. In fact, it is my opinion that the videos paid for my subscription already and I play relatively low stakes, $5-$20 sng's and mtt. I can see the commentary getting better and better with each video. I also enjoy how Sheets and Bax compliment each other.    -- Willywoo

This site is by far the best poker training site I have been a part of. The hand replayer is awesome because Bax and Sheets can explain key hands of why they played it a certain way because of all of the factors at the table. The videos have already improved my game in SNG's and MTT's. The quality of the videos is great and I look forward to many more videos to come!    -- evanbro

The sng videos are tremendous... i feel as if i am closer to getting to that point where i know what the right play is all the time.    -- wavegoodbye

Thank You ! Thank You ! I have already learned sooooo much. I am VERY grateful to Sheets, Johnny and Mindwise for creating this great EMPOWERING website. What a terrifc addition to all of our "games". The videos are great. I look forward to learning more EVERY time I log in. THANKS BUNCHES AGAIN.    -- mamalove11

PXF is absolutely incredible. Actually watching two of the best no limit players in the world play entire tournaments and discuss their proven strategies. … The multi hand history replayer is insane. One of the coolest things I've ever seen and a great way to recreate previous glories of mine. It was very nice to get to watch my first major satellite into the Aruba Poker Classic all over again. … I am very pleased with PXF so far and expect to be a member for a long time. Keep up all the great work.    -- mkind0516

Well guys before joining I had a little success but mostly in SNG's and a few cashes here and there in MTTs. Since joining I started to play the 180 man SNG on stars to try out the things I'm learning and I have now cashed in 6 of 7. Yesterday I finally broke through and finished 2nd after getting BAXED HU. All-in my AJ vs. 97 UGH. Either way you guys are doing an awesome job and I even had Bax come rail me :) Keep up the great work.    --Holdmfoldm?

I watched the video's the first week and didn't play any MTT at all. I watched most of the video's a couple of times. I am a successful SNG player and cash player, but had quit MTT because of a bad run I had about 1 year ago. After the first week of just watching I entered my first MMT tournaments on Saturday. I played a $6, $11 and $22. I cashed in one of them making it deep and another one I got 3rd and cashed for over $1100. In the following days I have played 3 MTT per day in the $6 to $22 range. I have went deep in most and got another 2nd place finish for $1800. My results have been phenomenal and I play with confidence that I never had before. I know that if I go out early it will most likely be a bad beat that sends me to the rail, and I am fine with that. I find that most of the decisions I am making now are correct, and thats the best you can do...it's up to the cards after that.    --betbrett

Guys, I've been tracking my SNG stats for a while now and here's my latest. I joined PokerXFactor in mid-March. Is it a coincidence that I turned the corner during the same month I joined? I think not! I can honestly say that the videos have helped me greatly. Also, the results below do not even include a Mar06 finish in a large $33 Stars MTT where I finished 14th out of 651 for a cash of $215. So, in Mar06 I profited a little over 1K. This is huge for my bankroll and huge for my confidence! Thanks Mindwise, Bax, and Sheets! Buy In (inc rake) Prize Profit Mar06 $1,615.00 $2,479.50 $864.50 Feb06 $679.50 $796.50 $117.00 Jan06 $660.00 $322.20 ($337.80) Dec05 $451.00 $493.20 $42.20 Nov05 $154.00 $288.00 $134.00 Oct05 $384.50 $196.20 ($188.30) Sep05 $137.50 $123.70 ($13.80) Aug05 $93.25 $67.50 ($25.75) Jul05 $169.50 $194.40 $24.90    -- Orioles_Rule

The videos are of the highest quality – both technically and in the incredible content! The “table of contents” is a great way to quickly replay hands you want to see again. I love the website and the sorting options for the videos. Not only have BAX and SHEETS already plugged a few technical holes in my game they have also given me the CONFIDENCE to make bolder plays when the situation is right. That is the real "X-Factor" for me!    -- Patp

Love the site. I am also a member of 2 other training sites, have been for a few months. So far your site has helped me the most. The material is explained in such a way that I get it better. Have not had big finishes so far. … It is pretty amazing I was able to hang in there long enough to win the seat. I take my comp. screen to highest resolution so I can run and see your videos while I'm playing. Helps keep me steady and patient, and keeps me focused. Keep up the excellent work. Kat. P.S. Bax and Sheets both have great persona while narrating.    -- katdragon

Thank you Sheets, Bax and Mindwise. I am not a high stacks guy (yet..lol) but I used the philosophy that Sheets teaches regarding stack size relative to blinds and how Bax thinks about hands and I took second in a UB 5.50 for $428.25. Small potatoes for most but it is my largest cash to date. I never had As, had KK once and QQ twice and for the most part I was card dead the entire tourny. All I can say is thank you. I have learned more in two weeks than I have in two years.    --ThreesRWild

Well, my finish today in the Deep Stack was not ITM, but I felt that I only misplayed 2 hands out of over 700. I just hit AA twice at the wrong time when I had AK and QQ the other time. I finished 117th out of 873 there and then while playing that I played a 20 SNG at PS and finished first there. I capped my day off by finishing first in a Turbo-Limit SNG $20 on Party, which I accidentally entered. I used the techniques that I have observed and learned on this site to put enormous pressure on my opponents. I have been steadily finishing in the money 1st or 2nd in my SNGs since joining this site. I was successful before, but now I am more confident and even more successful. I can't even imagine how good I will be in 6 months from now. Bax, Sheets, I am on my way so keep a seat open at your table and look out. lol Great job, keep it up.    -- JC_Saves

Since getting poker X factor i had my 2 best finishes in the 11R on Stars. 15th in the 35K and 9th in the 55K. My previous best finish was 40th twice. Also came in 5th in a $50 buy which was a nice payday out of 350 people. Thanks a lot guys for the help i feel like my game has improved greatly.    -- squeek2004

I would first like to thank Sheets for what he has done for my game. I was one of the lucky nine people who made it to the final table of the Sheets protégé tourney. I made several mistakes at that final table and Sheets let me know about it. I am a member of several other poker training sites and I have learned lots of new concepts and ideas but it wasn't until this review that I could really see what I was doing wrong. I recognized how much more work I need to put in to advance to a higher level of play. I also said to myself that if this Sheets guy puts up a website I will be there in a second, so I signed up for PokerXFactor the first day it opened. This is a bit late but, thank you Sheets. As for the website so far I am really excited about it, the content has been wonderful so far. I look forward to taking my game to a higher level with your help. I have already taken several things from both Bax's and Sheets' videos. I have been very surprised at how fast the updates have been rolling in, some other websites really slack in that department and its great to be getting new material on a regular basis. I am really looking forward to the sng series as that is were I try to build my roll so someday I can play in the bigger Mtts and start turning a decent profit. So once again, thank you very much for this wonderful service you are providing.    -- jaammeers

Overall, I am a much better player since joining PokerXFactor. The percentage of tourney's I get knocked out of with the best hand also increased dramatically since I have been watching the videos. I have watched videos at other sites before, but Bax and Sheets are far better players and teachers than those other players. I look forward to being a member for a long-time to come. I included my stats below for your information.    -- weirdrash

Great site guys. Top-notch from a technical standpoint, and the content I've seen so far has been even better than I expected. I think I had something stick already 'cause I signed up yesterday, watched all of Bax's "PokerStars $100 Rebuy Win 3/6/06" videos, then ended up taking 5th in the Stars $100 Freezeout last night. Of course I wanted the win, but it was something nonetheless.    -- koolade
