ok, gonna make a post here. im hoping this is the best step going forward.
A bit about me: I have played professional poker since 05'. i made a lot of money from 05 - 09 mostly in tournies and sng, with a nice 45% rake back deal with FTP, on top of every other incentive they offered, had a sweet affiliate i can only be thankful for that
I've played in some big cash games during that time. ive played 25/50(very limited) but during those years without a doubt i made a fair chunk in cash. i have had 10 buyins on a 10/20 table pry a handful of times
poker was so easy back then and i took it for granted
I know i spewed hard at times in cash though to. I can suffer from fancy play syndrome, where it really dont make sense to do so. slow playing at wrong times, or more so just not betting properly in regard to pot size, over betting pots by huge amounts at times to, simply hoping it will work. "O lets try betting 4x the pot to fold out 80% of his range, that makes sense." that kind of thinking.
I want to start learning good, solid, fundamental poker and sticking it to donks, in tournies, sngs, cash, every one. I want to get my poker brain on track.
there was a period pry around 2010 where games started getting harder and i noticed my SNG roi dropping and I never adjusted. I was merely making a small fraction of what I had in previous years(like 2010ish to 2012ish were pretty weak results wise for me). That was when i started buckling down a bit and at least studying(ICM calcs, books, forums, videos, whatever, but a lot of ICM calc which help immensely when u grind SNGS)
So that certainly helped. I got better but still need a lot of improvement. My "leak"(perhaps) has always been i focused more on table count than I did quality of play. It has lead to a lot of bonuses, rakeback etc but I need a transition to become a true beast on the felt. I dont want to break even any longer and rely on bonuses, I want to beat the games, I want to out play my opponents.
To bring whoever reads this up to speed, I am still making money in sngs(mostly sngs) and some mtt, still making it as a pro, but again, im ready for that next step. What i really want to get better at is post flop. preflop ranges are certainly important but post flop is where the money is made.
I don't know precisely what kind of coach I am seeking whether it is cash, sng, or tournies. Again, my play right now is mostly sng but i want to become more rounded and perhaps cash play is more suitable to find that roundedness. Cash play can transition into tourney play and sng play better than SNG/mtt can transition into cash play(perhaps debatable but thats how i feel, especially tourneys with good structure where a lot of postflop things happen)
At this point i am looking for someone who is going to fix my postflop fundamentals. im not sure I should shout out an hourly price, perhaps it will be better to hear some ppl out/look at their results/do a trial session and see how i feel.
I will be eager to learn and listen, if you feel you are that coach please PM me. one last thing i forgot to mention is that I certainly want to be able to review each coaching session, so however that would work. I for sure want a "hard copy" of each lesson so i can always fall back on it
thanks
