Stop laughing!
=)
I have no illusions that I'm some super pimping awesome poker player, but I do know that I have beaten every limit below NL100, have about 3 yrs of poker experience, have received coaching from some fantastic players, and have been doing poker as a part time job for the last 6 months and consistently pulling out money as a supplemental income. I'm sure there are microstakes guys that would like to achieve the same level and I can help them do that, and would like to help.
As I have more free time now and am getting back into poker, I've been thinking about the idea of coaching people. I enjoy teaching and I really like helping people learn and seeing them grow.
The point of this blog post is to gauge interest. I'm thinking of doing something along these lines:
| | 1) Free 15-30 minutes consultation to see if you'd be a good fit as a student
2) If we decide to go ahead with coaching then $50 per session which lasts at least 1 hr and may go for 2 or more.
3) If you are taking consistent lessons (at least 1 a week) then you can PM me hands anytime and I'll go over em for ya.
4) If I have no idea what to do in a situation I will consult with friends who are better players than I am so that you get a good answer.
5) Coaching is targeted to NL100 and lower (but if someone wanted help moving up to NL200 or just getting used to it I can help there). |
I currently grind NL200 and definitely don't feel good about giving someone advice at that level, but I have played like 300k hands of NL100 and won a lot there and beat every level below it, so I feel good giving coaching to anyone at those levels.
Note, to someone @ NL100 $50 is a small coaching fee, which is intentional cause I figure I won't be as helpful at that point, where as for NL50 it's a solid fee but I will be very helpful, and NL25 and lower it's a lot of money for a session in relation to your buyin amount BUT I will be extremely helpful to you.
And even if I don't know that much more poker strategy than you (IE a good NL100 reg) I have spent a lot of time focusing on learning about improving results with techniques that aren't related to basic poker strategy, like tilt control, focus, discipline, etc. So I am not just offering lessons on how to play a hand, but bigger lessons on how to approach poker and be successful.
So, would there be any interest? I have a much more in depth plan of how to be a great coach in my head and I've only given some general details of what I'd like to do here. If there's some interest in this then I'll take the time to put together a full out post and start making appointments with people for the free consultations. If there's no interest then I'll just spend more time grinding =)
EDIT: I forgot to mention that I have a good screen sharing program that allows us to do sessions smoothly plus talk easily either via the phone or your microphone/speakers. So the coaching sessions will not be hampered by shitty technology which I know happens a lot

I'm not sure if this is serious or not cause you seem to do just fine but then again, I'm sure $50 is nothing to ya and now you can learn all my secrets and win that $50 back + more when you see me on the tables! |

haha it's tempting but I'll have to pass. I've accepted my BW skill level and am fine with it being low =)
