They offer innovative options like poker quizzes that are offered during the videos similar to the Harrington on Hold'em books. The videos are paused and the instructor offers a multiple choice quiz and then covers why each action was correct or incorrect, before moving on to the next hand. This interactive approach ensures that players are engaged in the video. The coaches give out their Skype names so players can engage them in discussions if they have questions about a hand or topic that has peaked their interest.
Cons
The main detriment of Poker Zion is the number of videos they have released. There are usually a few growing pains with a new site, but Poker Zion is in the process remedying the situation with about 5 weeks per video.
