Joe Tall,

The Tiger Woods comparison is bunk. Poker is a completely mental game, completely different than golf. You could *try* to argue with chess players but that is a different game completely IMO where there is a correct way to play always, that isn't the case with poker.

Coaching is obsolete when you are better than anyone willing to coach you for a rate you'd pay that you feel will help improve your game.

Great post. After a while, you can determine your positive expected hourly rate. After that, what marginal differences could there be in your game that will increase your income that is worth paying for?

this answer is aside from the debate at hand, but if you play a decent amount of hours, the answer could be ANY marginal difference in your game that will increase your income is worth paying for.
