What's up?

Any plans to introduce program for HUsngs or spins?

We only do things when we can offer a world class product or have a superb partner.
Currently that is not the case with HUsngs and Spins. We have other priorities to take care of first at this moment or time, but it is on our list (albeit further down )

Okay, thanks for quick response.

Hello!
I would like to join either the sng or the hu nl program, but first i want to ask a couple of questions:

I have read the FAQ on your site, where you explained 4 programs very well, but i could not find a question like "How much Coaching will I get in the NL HU program and how does it look like?" If there is one, could you give me a link to that? And if there isn't one, could you give me some info about it similarly to the other programs mentioned in the FAQ, please? (1)

If i join one of the programs, do i get access to the poker courses (i.e. no bs 6max, hu masterminds, 3bet pots, etc) on your site, or do i have to still pay for them? (2)

What do you think about the state of HU games in 2016? I dont know about other sites, but on ps, it seems like there are almost only reg battles with a ridiculosly high rake. (3)

Lets say, i join one of the programs, but i also want to play some other formats (that i have an edge in) once in a while with the permisson of my coach. Is it possible to do it without a seperate bankroll? (4)

Thanks!

I am interested for the micro 6 max. Most of my poker experience is micro/low stakes mtt and sng where I broke even after months of playing.

I want to give cash games a real shot, starting from the bottom. As of right now, I would probably lose slightly or break even at the lowest level so I definitely need help.

Bankroll is really small so would probably need some sort of coaching before putting volume so I don't lose it all. Do you guys deal with total (motivated) newbies? (1)

Also, I built my bankroll by playing micro Double or nothing (the only game I can beat consistently right now) and I want to know if I would be allowed to still play some of those if things are going wrong with cash game at first and bankroll is getting too low. (2)

Thanks!

Also, I know it is group coaching for micro, and I'd like to know what is the size of a group. No need to be exact, but just an approximation. Is it 5 to 15 students? Or more like 100 to 200?

Thanks again

Hi, thanks for the interest!

1) In short, you will get more coaching than you can probably handle. How much exactly, will depend on you. Starters get less (2-3 times per week, mostly in a group setting), advanced students get more (5-8 times per week, some of it 1-on-1, some of it group), intermediates get something in between. How fast you progress from starter to advanced is totally up to you, how much time you will put in and how closely you will follow the instructions, do the exercises, homework, and so on.

In reality, you will get all the coaching+materials+peer support you need to get to $10k+ per month playing HU. You should not be concerned with the hours that much. We can give you 10 hours per week, if you can handle it, and if it would make a difference. Many guys think before joining that the number of coaching hours directly increases the amount of profits. It's about the quality of work, from your side and from the coach.

If you are advanced HU student, you can join any coaching you want, there will be about 10-15 sessions weekly in the HU program. But you don't need that much coaching all the time, as you will realize inside.

2) All programs have extensive libraries that go FAR beyond anything that we sell. Again, I would bet anything that there has not been a single HU student that watched all the materials in the library, and there will never be - because we have so many video materials, and are growing it constantly. You will get access to the HU Mastermind, when the time is right for you. If you join the HU course, you of course don't get 6-max or PLO or SNG materials.

3) It's awesome! You need to know what you are doing, though.

4) That depends totally on the specific situation. If you are a winning 10bb/100 6-max player, we can maybe arrange something. If you're closer to "I binked this MTT last month, I definitively have an edge there", then no. As a rule, though, any profits made while inside the program count towards the 50% share.

We take total newbies in the Micro program, anybody can join and start at the bottom. That is the idea of the Micro program.

As soon as you improve, you move up to the Intermediate groups, and get different materials and attention, but also bigger requirements.


You will beat the Micros after joining, there's no reason why you would not. It will not go wrong, the BR will grow and you will move into the next level. That's how you should be thinking.

If you want to play some other stuff on the side - while you are in the Micro, we have different requirements to other programs, so if you play once in a while something else it would not be the end of the world. Keep in mind, though, all profits made during the program count towards the 50% as a rule.

As far as your next question regarding the size of the groups, without getting specific - depends on the day, the session in question, and how many guys are at what stage currently. It also depends on how many join the session.

A better question to ask is, how much time will I have to ask my questions - and the answer is, as much as you need. If you will prepare 3 hours worth of questions, we will be there for the 3 hours and answer every question you have until it's all clear.

Trying to make the decision between a couple of different coaching programs....
Couple questions , if you will....

1. in the t&c it states that the coach will decide which site the player plays on. in other contexts, bpc states , player can play where they want. obv t&c is binding, why the contradiction? Why not change t&c to reflect the latter?

2.you state that players must play under bpc affiliates, and for americans the only choices are bovada or black chip poker. I already have account on both, how would we proceed? I can move to true poker under ur affiliate, but bodog only has one skin, does that mean I wont be able to play on bovada?

thx for ur help

The player can play wherever he wants. We do recommend certain deals with the affiliates we work with, mostly due to safety and good deals.

In your case, you can definitely continue playing on Bovada. If it's possible to move to another skin under our affiliate, we recommend that, but we do not force anybody.

A little about myself:

I have about 1400$ and no job. I play play money poker on a well known site and sell the chips. I bought the no bs+vids course (recent bonus vids were appreciated, fwiw). I need to buy a new (buy parts and assemble) computer for about $400 because my **** is old and outdated and probably can't run HM2 anymore. I live in the U.S., with my parents. (obviously a baller )

I want in the micro 6 max program, and perhaps upgrade later.

I was thinking about signing up for some sites and grinding some cash so I could pay the security deposit comfortably, and was looking at rakeback deals a little today...(as the play money action is sometimes dead)

Is it possible for me to f my sign ups up, in terms of my future at BPC? Or, as long as I get rakeback, I'm cool? Would getting prop player rakeback be even better or recommended? Are there special BPC signup codes, or preferred rakeback affiliates?

I guess I'm a little concerned about the possibility of new students being cutoff soon, and my financial situation is a little tight to be able to pull this off. Can I like...pay half now just to get on the list, and maybe come up with the other half in about a week or so to get started? Like how far away are you guys from saying no more?

I do make some money...so if everything will be there in two weeks, then no need for special financing moves, but it would be nice to maybe sign up for one of the few accepted U.S. sites in the most suitable way in the meantime.

For the affiliate and rakeback deals, we have you covered - we offer deals to our students during the sign up process, so you do not have to look around by yourself, we already have a great package of good deals for the CFP students.

Of course, being from the US, the choice of rooms will be limited.

If you have 1.4k there is no reason not to sign up right away, and start grinding - in the program, and already doing the steps to progress as soon as possible.

Contact our support, and we will arrange something.

Hi BPC,

Does he still playing? If not, then on what limits are your better 6max players are playing? Thanks!

how good is Gordon at chess?

Not professionally, no, he is too busy with coaching and managing the company these days to grind full-time.

For a good overview of the students and what games they play in, I suggest you hop on over to our site, and check out some of their blogs. We have a wide range of players, all the way from the very bottom up.

In my youth i was champion in the biggest state in Germany. Still love the game and follow the top tournies.

Also worked as a coach for the state team when i was 21yo and in my first year got students on top3 places in germany and then coached them at the youth world championship. They were huge underdogs, just like many of BPC students. We beat teams with full time grandmaster coaches.

Not saying this to brag, but to show you the passion i had back then and have today.

Fwiw, i got paid nothing. Kind of a "give back", because my parents couldn't afford a coach back then for me and there were volunteers who helped me.

I say this because it reflects the spirit of BPC where many former students are coaches. We're of course a business (chess really isn't, unless you're top50 in the world...and even then u don't earn "real" money). Either way, the spirit and energy is something you can't pay for. You can still be thankful for something, even if you paid a fair price for it.

In my highschool yearbook you will read (amont other stuff) that i taught people math topics of 1 school year in 2 days... and that i was always looking & reading for ways to make money LOL.

That's more than you asked, but you should know that this is the type of person & business you're dealing with.

I quitted the CFP program (and poker) today. It didn't work for me, the system just doesn't work.

I was almost convinced that there's no way to win at poker, and I joined CFP to be proven otherwise. But it didn't happen. Probably there's no system that works and there's no point in trying to win a game of pure luck, or maybe there IS a way to win, but you didn't teach it to me.

In any case, I think it's better to quit. Poker is just a big waste of time and money.

Good luck.

You certainly picked the worst program for a quitter. I'd say take a break and re evaluate.
