So, as I posted in the PLO forum, I’m offering five DC posters two free 1-hour coaching sessions.
Trainee Profile:
- Is an active DC PLO forum participant, currently playing 5 - 50 PLO 6-max.
- Continuously asks questions to improve his game.
If interested, please PM me the following information before June 1st:
a) how many PLO hands you have played and at which stakes.
b) past coaching sessions.
c) specific concepts you’d like to discuss.
Thanks for participating!

This is awesome -- I absolutely respect your approach to the game and could really benefit from your coaching. Unfortunately, I'm super time constrained. What format were you thinking about? Skype sessions? Pure review of HH or shadowing? I don't mean to look a gift horse in the mouth -- I just don't want to take a slot if someone with more time wants it.

Hey guys, thanks for all the interest, I've already gotten a few applications.
HRPaperstacks, the format I had in mind is the following: trainee makes a 45-60 minute video of him 2-4 tabling his usual stakes. We set up a time and discuss his play over using Mikogo and Skype. That'd usually take about 1.5 hours. A week (or two) later we repeat the process, perhaps ending with a few general pointers that will help your specific game.
I don't really like the HH review method, it seems like the trainee already knows there is something wrong with the hands he choses, and the reads are always somewhat lost analyzing hands in a vacuum. This method is good for forums, but not that great for mano a mano coaching.
If you wish we can do only one session, and I'll give a 6th applicant your second session. Let me know!

Thanks, Joe!
Just wanted to let everyone know I'm also going to accept applications from 50plo players.
