+1 The session with Punch Dance went really well. He made me really think why I was doing certain things on every street and just helped me break down my thought process which was really interesting to hear.

Sounds like a good idea!

Had my session today with ibavly.
Was a very good session. That helped further my understanding of what kind of hands should go into witch part of my range and why. Along with a couple other gems of knowledge.

I had my session with taikogod yesterday.

We found some leaks in my game specially in the region of 13 to 18bb and talked about some basics where I had problems and some easy to make game adjustments that will make me a better player.

I'm interested. I play 10' and 20' Turbo on Ipoker(OnlyValue, it's blocked on Shark to generate some action from weak regs. I can unblock it for a while or send my results from Holdem Manager). I had played on FTP before Black Friday as FCDplayer 33' and 55' Turbo and it isn't blocked on Shark Scope. I'd be glad if I can join to the tree.

Not sure if this still applies or not. Playing 15s and 30s at the minute and would be interested in whatever you may be able to slot me into.

Thanks, bd

Im sorry i havent organized my time well to be able to complete the sessions (either coaching, and getting coached), to both my students (that i have on skype) the sessions will go on but for the time being im unable to do both because i will have close to ZERO time in the next 2 weeks (due to last-year-of-college practical activities), as a bonus and for not bieng able to complete the sessions in the time given ill throw a hh review (of any hyper match you send me) for both my students, just upload the hh in .txt somewhere and PM me the link, ill try and go over that as soon as possible (not counting this 2 weeks obv).

and for meatpies will work something out mate, i have you on skype so no biggie (at least from my side)

Done my sessions with ibavly. Got some great ideas to improve my game. I think we actually talked through a couple of spots that could currently be the biggest leaks in my game.

Big thanks to ibavly, palinca and HokieGreg!

p.s. I hope coaching tree becomes a vital tradition. One can only imagine the amount of positive energy this undertaking has generated.

Hey guys, sorry for late answer. There are no slots open for players other than micros at the moment...

There might be an opening though if some of the students don't show up, or if any 100$ reg is willing to donate an hour... do you play STs or turbos btw bdaewn?

Done today my session with mrbambocha, initially I had planned reviewing a video of me playing but after reading his awesome blog:

Mrbambocha's blog

And seeing how he is working on the mental game, we decided to focus on that part of the game and the results were much better than I could expect.

Thanks a lot mrbambocha and palinca!
