Default Re: How much to invest in coaching?

Coaching can help any one, from the casual player to the experienced pro. Newer players get much more out of coaching because it greatly accelerates their learning curve but, everyone should be interested in coaching because it pays for itself and then some.

When it comes to how much to invest it really depends on where you want to take it. The players that really should invest more in coaching are the ones that really want to take the game seriously and move up the ranks or even do it for a living. Simply put the more you play and the higher you play the more your investment pays off.

On the contrary it is very important to find a coach/program that really fits you. For lower skill level or newer players this is easy because they can learn from about any one, but they are best suited for a program that is streamlined for new players. Seasoned players might be more acclimated for more customized coaching to address certain issues they need work on such as avoiding tilt or protecting the blinds.
