NOTE: this is the second, and last repost of this offer.
---------------------------------------------------------
Hey guys, I have achieved certain goals that I have set for myself as far as poker profitability, skill, and game understanding are concerned. I have been playing poker as my sole source of income since I was laid off at my job in finance two summers ago. At that time, I was playing NL50, which made it a less than ideal time to start, to say the least. Since then, I have played significant amounts at up to NL600 online and up to 5/10 NL live and have gotten to the point where my poker income and my confidence in my ability to improve are such that I do not intend on seeking another job. I use the extra time and freedom I have thanks to playing poker to pursue my two main hobbies, which are competitive swimming and writing. As a mandatory part, here is my graph over the past 150k hands:
As of right now, I will be offering lessons to players up to NL200 6-max. I will focus on correctly using opponents' tendencies and detailed stats to identify ways to exploit them. In the process, I will also take a look at what stats the student uses and make suggestions as to how optimize their HUD and which stats to pay attention to. This will apply to making plays that many players, especially struggling ones, at NL200 and below have trouble with, such as floating, 3betting, responding to 3bets, multiple barrel bluffs and value bets, as well as making correct folds.
At this time, I will be doing only individual lessons and lesson packages, though that may change later. I will set my hourly rate in subsequent posts. For now, since this is my first coaching offer on this site, I will offer a first-time special. I am offering one two-hour session for $100. We will start off with a short discussion of the student's game and areas that he or she wants to focus on during the lesson. After that, we will do an hour-long play session where I will observe the student play. We will conclude with a final analysis of the session with specific attention given to the areas the student wanted to focus on at the outset. If we run over the allotted time, I will obviously not expect any additional payment. Finally, if the student wishes, I will offer another one-hour session for another $50, either right then or at a later date, where the student can sweat me 4-tabling their stakes and commenting on my play.
Since this is a good offer as far as poker lessons go, I will not pick the student on first come first serve basis. Instead, I will pick one person from those who respond to this as well as those who have already responded to my previous post.
If you are interested, send me a PM and include the following:
-What stakes you play (up to NL200) and a brief summary of your poker history.
-Your own honest assessment of how you are doing.
-Your poker goals for the next few months.
-What you hope to gain from the lesson.
Finally a few administrative details:
-The lesson will take part, preferably, early in February.
-Payment is due immediately before the start of the lesson. I will accept Stars or Full Tilt transfer.
-We will use Skype to talk and screen-sharing software so that I can see what you are doing, so make sure you have a microphone (duh).
PM me if you are interested.
