I had my first session with Mlagoo and my first experience was more than positive. I won a tournament a week before the session, so I thought why not send him the hand history for review? He started reviewing the hand history before our session started and sent me all the comments so that I know what he pointed out. The analysis was very thorough and immediately pointed out many weaknesses that I had because of my cash game background. Half way through the session I had a strong suspicion that Mlagoo could actually reproduce my thought process very well and interpreted some less obvious spots that could look like major spew plays as self-explainatory moves against specific opponents (saying: "With the history you have, I would do the same"). He also showed me some creative lines I had never thought about before. I managed to understand why a play I thought was spewy and looked dangerous actually went for fat value given my opponent's stats and history. Unlike some other coaches, Mlagoo made sure that every single spot he pointed out was covered during the session and he also made sure I understood everything correctly and answered all my questions. We managed to communicate in the fast pace that I am used to, without skipping anything important. Thought processes were perfectly clear, there were no fallacies, generalizations and useless mantras. In fact I got positive feedback that looking for some creative lines that goes beyond common knowledge is an advantage. One of the most useful and thorough sessions I have ever had.
Would just like to say Matt is great coach for many reasons.He spots your leaks very quick and is great at highlighting them over and over again until they are fixed.He has a great understanding of the game and knows how to get that across to the his students,so in next to no time there game will move to the next level
He has a great teaching style with lots of patience to.Which is a must for a coach imo.
Matt LaGarde, mlagoo on Stars and FTP. My "current results" don't exist apart from completely unverifiable (and arguably irrelevant) live cash-game play -- as I've said in this thread, I have a job and am returning to law school.
I have two coaching sessions with mlagoo. Haven't hit a big score yet but i think im on my way. Have lots of deep runs after the coaching so i guess i improved a lot. ty
If you are still offering coaching I would be very interested in having some lessons. My email address is daniel.richer@hotmail.co.uk. If you are looking for students drop me and email so we can sort something out
recently had my first coaching session with mlagoo, simply put his take on the game is extremely insightful and spot on in every situation, i came away from the session reminded to never take a hand off and consider all my options in every hand i play_ also have had a spike in success since our session due to my newly awakened poker brain...looking forward to another session in near future.
hey,
I am a german midstakes grinder (5$-320$) and I am struggling a bit with my deepstacked play in MTTs (especially vs other good regulars)
I'd be very interested in taking a couple of lessons. If you still have a spot available, please pm me at davidw1@web.de

I've had one session with Matt, he is a good guy and pointed out a few spots I have been missing which was very helpful. His re-shove strategy versus different ranges/positions also gave me confidence to take some +EV shoves I may have missed before.
He has also helped with my run-good as I finally won an MTT on Stars for $12k! I thought I was never going to come 1st on that site!
hey, do you provide more customised coachings ?
im especially interested in just a few concepts of mtt
which are controlling gameflow between regs, building aggresive approach with bluff 4bets, pulling the trigged while widening r/cai range from bu/co/sb, different ranges against aggresive and passive villains oop, re-restealing, etc
I would be interested in getting some coaching to take my game to the next level. Judging by the excellent responses from your previous customers, you are the man I need to speak to! You can reach me at jthegarty@hotmail.co.uk
