Re: Official MTT COACHING thread.
[ QUOTE ]
For people who want to coach, please tell us about: 1. What you offer in terms of services. 2. How much it costs. 3. Why you’re qualified to coach. 4. Anything additional we should know about you, other details, or anything the previous questions didn’t cover. [/ QUOTE ] 1) I coach both MTTs and cash. I'll sweat you or review hand histories. Some people have asked to sweat me, which is also fine. 2) 200/hour. I do a 100/hour firs session so we can both decide if we think 200/hour is worth it for you. I won't coach you if I think you'd be better off with a cheaper coach or no coach. 3) I know how to play poker well, and I explain it well. |

So I take it there aren't any coaches out there that coach just to have the pleasure of watching a student come along? Or coaching because they love to coach and it makes them feel good inside? [/ QUOTE ] I do that every freaking day in SSMTT. WTF. |

Re: Official MTT COACHING thread.
Seeing mostly the coaches perspective covered in the responses. I am certainly not qualified to coach and would like to be coached...I like to think I'd be a good student.
Anyway: [ QUOTE ] For people who want to be coached tell us about: 1. What you’re looking for in terms of services. 2. What your price range is. 3. What kind of limits you normally play. 4. What you're hoping to get/accomplish out of coaching. 5. Any additional details the previous questions didn’t cover. [/ QUOTE ] 1. Probably sweating me and letting me sweat you but I'm not really sure (I am the student) . I don't know what 'ghosting' is. Reading/commenting on HHs would probably be helpful too but it's not 'in the moment' enough. Additionally, if I sweat you or you sweat me...I still should review the HH for myself at least once...right? I like LFT's theory-first approach. 2. A pretty good job pays what...$30/hr? Some of the rates mentioned so far are quite high...for what some are charging for one hour I could buy 10 books. Not to mention that coaching is different from playing...some of the best players make some of the worst coaches. If you're charging a lot...it should be because you have a successful, proven track record as a coach, not just because you have been a successful player. 3. I play extremely low limits. I took almost everything out just before Neteller pulled out and lost most of what was left trying to qualify for the WSOP. I don't want to deposit any so I'm just grinding the tiny bit I have left online. Trying to build it up has been very slow going. 4. Post-flop play and increasing my aggressiveness. Also short-handed play (but that was pretty much covered with the 'post-flop play' and 'aggressiveness' wasn't it?). 5. Would how 'advanced' the student was affect the rate? Is it any easier/harder to teach a rookie starting hand ranges relative to position and table dynamics...or to teach a more experienced player the finer points of value betting? I would love to be coached but most of the rates I've seen here just make it too cost prohibitive. Also, having never done it I don't know how much one gets out of 'one hour of online poker coaching'. One SnG victory usually takes more than one hour and an MTT takes several even if it's a non-rebuy turbo. |
