There are some strings that need to be pulled here:
1) Doesn't seem like Doug would agree to give coaching on NL and THEN have the discussion about your PLO info agreements where it's told to him that you may or may not be able to reciprocate coaching. I'm not sure if you intended it to seem that was as written above, but the sequential order of things does not seem probable.
However if it was known to Doug that there is a chance that you may NOT be able to give PLO coaching but would still continue on a coaching/shared action agreement, well that seems reasonable. I just can't deduce what occurred based on what you wrote.
2) If the agreement was straight up NL for PLO coaching and no other complexities, does selling him the NL piece after the coaching and doing really well justify not having to hold up your end of the agreement with Doug?
3) If the guy you needed permission from is leaving poker, why does it matter? Seems like either he's not really leaving poker or there's something else going on that's not been disclosed.
