Long time no see LP.
This is a long shot, but I'd like to ask the LP community if they're interested in a mental-coaching app for poker. Filling out the survey below will help my team on what audiences to target and which areas to prioritize such as concentration, consistency, and ability to not tilt:
https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/YJLPHZF
I recently joined a team that consists of 2 PhD Sport Psychologists that regularly work with pro athletes, and are being approached by major esports teams. We're definitely going to target esports and sports, but we're also thinking of other niche areas that require a certain mindset to excel, and we think poker is one of them. During my time as a "pro poker player" the mental hurdles were half the battle. Knowing when to take a break, being honest with yourself to find leaks, and preparing mentally for a big tournaments were some things that I think affected my overall EV, and didn't do so well in those areas. But since I am no longer a full-time poker player, my opinions are somewhat invalidated, so I'd love to see the responses from the LP community.
Lastly, if you are interested in such an app, what stakes and how frequently do you play? This info will help us understand what kind of volume a poker player goes through as a pro or amateur.

personally no interest but i certainly know some that would be. i know fedor holtz put out something mindset related and is used by poker players, though i dont know how good it is or if its explicitly just for poker players.

Thanks for the feedback. Still super valuable. Fedor has an app focusing on meditation but we'd like to go a bit further and offer exercises and sessions like you would when working with a sport psychologist. We have investors that are very interested in targeting poker players so we want to see if there's any interest. We already confirmed that there's a big demand in esports, but it's mainly due to improving teamwork and communication. So, I'm not 100% sold on targeting poker players yet. |

Probably a good idea, but this place no longer has many poker players. Most of us have quit so you won't really get much feedback. I could still fill in the survey as if I were a poker player but it would taint the info you get most likely. |

You can fill it out as there's an option for casual players so there won't be any tainting.
But yea same here  I play like a 1000 hands a year even though I live in Vegas. |
