Free Coaching session - Page 3

i recently moved up to nl200 and i think i'd benefit a lot from the coaching session. if anyones paid attention to my posting on here throughout the last year or two, ive made a ton of improvements from taking part in the discussions (your posts in my threads especially have helped me out a lot) and i think i still have the potential to get a lot better. im open to criticism and constantly try to reevaluate my game and im self critical to a fault.

that and since i came up through the low stakes forum i always try to give back and help newer players out whenever possible.

i post a decent amount and we have played wc3 together. little coaching plz?

What if he just EPIC trolled everybody?

You run bad, I've been dropping mine 5 times/day for over 2yrs now and its still in perfect state

/wrists.

fml.

i deserve it becuase my brother is dead and poker is my only outlet on life now.

i deserve it because, fuck you

I am interested. I am always eager to understand and develop new play styles in every game I like.

If I deserve it, it should be because I am a smiling and honest person ;D!

erg TTom this blog post is frustrating

Weve played a decent amount over the years. I would like to get insight to your style. I tried experimenting with it earlier and you do alot of things well that i would like to know more about.

I took about half a year off to finish school and take the bar. Im getting back into it. I have to pay for two kids and a wife all from pokers. The legal industry isnt strong so i may have to play poker.

I think I could also point some things out for you as well so it wouldnt be entirely one way.

is that because our most deserving hero exalted begged tom for free coaching before and got ignored, and now tom is offering it to someone else?

Hello TalentedTom,

I am a 50NL player looking to transition into 100NL and above (2.6k roll). I've been thinking about coaching options for a while to help improve my game and give me the confidence I need to move up as smoothly as possible. However, I've been a bit hesitant about it because I'm not sure about how much poker experience/knowledge I'd personally be able to acquire from a coaching deal. At this moment I don't really want to drop a few hundred for a few hours and end up disappointed at my progress. I'd like to sample your free coaching as way to measure the potential benefits that I could realize if I did decide to go through with getting further coaching. This opportunity will also allow me to gain a valuable contact if I feel that your coaching is extremely beneficial, and if you decide to start coaching for money, then I'd be interested in working out a longer term deal in the future.

I think your awesome TalentedTom.

Oh mah gawdddddddddddddddddddd

I just recently graduated college with a non finance, accounting, engineering degree and am playing poker part time and waiting tables part time -.-

whoa... ~200 buyins below expectation? ......

i would even pay to have one session with such sexy boy

I would love this but feel other players may benefit more since I think most of my game right now is hurt mainly by not playing focused and tilting (gotten much better since my fml blog post though) but maybe advice on how you calmed tilt or learning what notes u have on me or what u think of my play from the hands u have on me and how to improve would be really awesome to hear.

I've been a reg at midstakes on Stars for a while now playing 400NL and 600NL with the occasional shot taking at 1KNL. Would be cool to get some feedback on my play and also just discuss general strategy. I think you're a cool guy, and from what I remember about playing you before you seem to have a fairly different approach to the game than I do so I think seeing your perspective on things would be interesting.

I'm poor student that lives in a peace of shit country and every 1bb/100 I can get will.... take me closer to become a baller and get me some moniez for hoes and booze

When will th winner be notified?
