Lol what is going in here lately :P
You are right, I'm not going to deny it; I cannot prove I beat 200z and I do need to pick up the volume. Hopefully, in time, I'll be able to correct upon them both
And I don't think I am delusional about my "own skills". If you knew me, you'd know how hard I berate myself when I do stupid **** at the tables!
Hope things are going well with you mate
Thank you for the kind words mate!
Like I said, time will tell.
Also, a Poker coach doesn't need to be a world class player, they just need to have a good understanding about the game, and a good etiquette/methodology of imparting it. This is proven pretty much anywhere outside of Poker.
Let's hope they can 
(No offence) I agree with Fayth on this, I pretty much said it for verbatim in a Skype convo before it was posted.
I am not sure if you're taking shots at me or being massively pretentious
Yup lol. Not in yours, though, just crushing like always

Nothing here proves OP being winning 200nlz player (long term). Anyone can play anything but it doenst make them being winners there.
If you want to go pro / are already you should improve with volume. With such volume your downswings will last pretty long when you hit them. Obviously it gives good vibes to post graphs while upswinging and take shots playing very minimal tables and volume but when the downswing hits it lasts quite long, take my word!
Nothing wrong with being delusional of own skills I did it plenty of times aswell.

I dont think he is and its completely fine not to be. And my first post wasnt a blame to OP I would say same to anyone if I feel they are delusional.
This community just alot of times gets very friendly cause most people posting here want to see some hands played at higher than their usual limit is, (5nl or 10nl 25nl max). When they see some fancy hands they start to admire someone and thats the point people get delusional. Most people need some "authority" to determine themselves how good they are. If the authority is these people here you easily get carried away. I thought Im awesome and even started couching some guy when I was like 5bb winner at 200z after like 70k hands sample. The truth was that I was likely worse than breakeven that time.
.. But to be fair I think OP is better than average 100z reg and thats an accomplishment already, but to make consistently money need to play hands.

Same with things like teaching (as well as most things). The best teacher isn't the one who came first in their class in their chosen topic at university. It's not just about how good you are at the topic but how good you are at passing down and explaining the given piece of information.
I mean from my experience of going to a public school there was a weighting on getting teachers who went to Oxbridge etc. In fact one of the worst teachers (in many peoples eyes) was someone who got a first class degree in Chemistry but they were terrible at explaining concepts and didn't have any relatability to who they were teaching.
Anyway gl with the coaching and gl with poker
Any further idea as to where you will live soon?

Coaching is going really well, although it is early days!
Still not sure where I would like to move to. I am yet find out which countries don't tax poker like the UK. Does anyone know of any links that let me know which countries do and do not?

will be streaming some ZOOOOOM @ www.twitch.tv/NhsRS in a bit

. I'm surprised you get that vibe off me, as I feel that I can be too quiet and not give smooth commentary when streaming.I'm still undecided on if I will, a buddy of mine gave me an offer recently to move away with him and a friend next month. Problem is that my Nan isn't too well (I live with her), and I would feel guilty moving away to "live the life" whilst she suffers.
