Default Indianas \"share a coach\" idea re-invented. Suggestion:

Indiana and a couple of other guys regularly rent a coach with 4 people to make it affordable for them. From what I heard this is still an interactive form of coaching. I.e that all of them can talk to the coach, ask questions and discuss.

Since most of the people who get a coach themselves or with 2 - 4 people already escaped the micro limit 101 tactics and discussion is definitely needed. However, many of us who are still stuck with the 5 - 20$ buyin HU SNGs would be greatly helped if we could only watch & listen. Learn about the basics, see how a thinking player acts and what his reasonings are and be talked through general concepts.

The idea would be to have a coach playing "live" in a low buyin SNG and telling us about his cards, what hes doing and why he is doing it. We would all be in one channel _only_ listening and the coach doing the talking. Teamspeak would be an excellent choice for this.

So now that we can have 10 or even 20 people being coached (it all depends on the teamspeak software) an hour of highest quality insight into HU SNG is easily affordable for anybody.

Feasable?

Comments on all streets appreciated.

Yes, only that with videos you will always be struggling to get people to pay for it. Once a group of people paid for it its probably gonna be on megaupload.com available for everybody.

Its not that I want to keep the wisdom among just a few, but its gonna be hard to find people to pay for it when they know they will get it for free 3 days later.

There are many good players in this forum who would be more than willing to play a HU S&G or HU cash game, at lower limits if a large group of micro-stakers wanted to buy the time, also, the coach could camtasia the video as he does it so you guys could keep it for review

I like it, I am somebody who def learns better through example than theory discussion. I am also poor in the poker world and if we had 10 people paying say $10 - $15 a piece to watch a good player play $5s or $10s for an hour I'm sure we'd learn a lot.

Why don't we just ask the coach if he'd be willing to let some guys listen in on our session for a lower rate than the main participants who can ask questions and talk during the session?
