After MDU podcast it is quite clear for many guys (esp. from Poland) that I was his backer. Imo its not a topic for public discussion, but I felt a bit disappointed with how our deal was shown and about comments that its unfair etc. So few words of clarification.
MDU approached me few months ago, he was nearly busted and had slightly negative/breakeven winrate at large sample at low stakes. He asked for staking + coaching deal. We agreed on long term 1 year deal with intensive coaching/mentoring included. The primary version of our contract didn't allow him to terminate it within next year. Otherwise he could just benefit from complimentary coaching and I would not be rewarded for my time. Then, after MDU request, I have agreed to end our agreement at 200k profit, receiving just 10% of his winnings until the deadline of our deal, instead of 35%.
During our deal MDU received very fair share of profit that he made (up to 65-70% for the most part) and I obviously participated in his potential lossess at every point, so it's not like I invested only 2k as he claims.
I feel that I had some impact on his progress, especially at the beginning of our deal, when he played low stakes. Obv 95% of his developement as a player is owed to his hard work.

But he was bit lasey with coaching and later i decided to give up with coaching part so we had only few h.
That's a bit classless. We both know, that at some point you just decided to work on your own, but I still invested way more than "few h" into coaching/talking hands etc.
I feel that whining publicly about it is in bad taste . We agreed on every detail before signing it and it drove him to HS in few months. I also voluntarily agreed to diminish my share from 10 to 8% after reaching 200k of profit as he hadn't used many hours of coaching (it was his decision).
Obviously none of us could expect that breakeven low stakes player would make such a progress and will run so good, but that's not a reason to give up on terms that we both settled.
No hard feelings MDU, but Skype is much better place to talk than podcast or 2+2, GL!
