yeah the bld thing is kinda weird. i have never heard of anyone having him as a coach, and the market must be awfully slim seeing as nearly anyone who has moved up to stakes where paying $1600/hr is realistic or necessary probably has too big an ego at that point to want to pay for help.

G_Dollaz:

We had two sessions only, and this was maaaany months ago. Not once did you voice any miscontent to me, and neither have you done so afterwards. This is the way you let me know?

FWIW given you are just about the only one who had a "bad" experience, it's way more likely you were the problem than I. Just saying it took quite some time for you to "get back to your A-game" like I somehow destroyed your game, when I in fact just tried to get you out of your very nitty ways is just plain insulting.

No offence (or well some because your post is just plain ad manners), but the fact that you yourself apparently cannot move up from 2/4 despite playing for ages and having lots of money would suggest that is not my style that is flawed, but yours. I have lots of students that have had LOTS of success that can attest to this obviously.

You are just about the only displeased student I've had, and you didn't even have the guts to tell me that to my face but instead chose to write your very first comment here.

Rather classless, if you ask me.

[censored] like this pisses me off.

A bit over the top imo. Below is G_Dollaz post, he clearly doesn't blame MDMA and his post seems pretty reasonable.

FWIW I had a bad experience w/ MDMA in terms of actual coaching. He seems like a good guy while he's coaching and definitely makes himself available and I have no problem w/ him whatsoever. I feel like he tried to imrpove my game and was attentive and all that while he was coaching, for me it just didn't work for some reason. He's the only coach I've ever had and the reason I've never hired nor will ever hire another coach that charges by the hour. I'm not saying others shouldn't use him and he has a great reputation as a coach on here and I'm sure it's for good reason, I'm just posting this so a small stakes player doesn't read this and go w/ him b/c they think it's a guarenteed way to beat msnl, it took me quite some time to get back to playing my A game after being coached.

FionnMac: Maybe so, but wouldn't you get pretty pissed if the guy hadn't even told you once that he wasn't satisfied with the two sessions you had, only to then read about it the first time in this thread, like some 8 months later or so? Also the "it took me quite some time to get back to playing my A game after being coached." is just pure insulting, at least that's how I feel.

100% agree with MDMA.

People who cant man up and say [censored] to your face piss me off.

yo just wandering, but like id be keen to chip in $1k or something if some other ppl joined me we could get sweat BLD for a few hours just get him to explain everything, etc...probably get him to record it...and we could probably run it over skype...i dunno just an idea but BLD coaching would be pretty sick...

I didn't mean any disrespect by my post. I tried to contact you 3 times after our sessions, twice by IM, and once by PM, none of which were given a response. That being said, I never said you "destroyed my game." I clearly stated that you were very attentive and that you tried to help my game, but like I said before it just didn't work for me for some reason. I do think that if you feel I am/was a nitty player that shows that you missed quite a bit during our sessions, but I did try to contact you afterwards.

Again, I never claimed that your style is flawed nor did I mean to be disrepectful in my post. I don't feel the need to defend myself anymore than saying I'm probably the biggest 2/4 winner on stars since I've switched sites and I'm more than capable of beating the 3/6, I'm simply running 30 buy in's below expectation @ that level and am down 20 buy in's or so.

Also, I have recieved PM's from/talked to two very well respected posters/players since I've made my post that said they've had the same experience w/ you, so it's not just me.

I'll be more than happy to discuss this w/ you in private if you'd prefer. I didn't think much of my post and meant absolutely no disrepect by it, I was only trying to help out a ssnl player who may look @ the coaching as a "sure thing" b/c of the responses when in reality it's not IMO. Again, sry if I offended you, I didn't mean to, if you want to continue this discussion in this thread that's fine too, or if you want to drop the matter completely that's also ok by me.
