boring

Lol..sigh. All these comments regarding my contract is quite comical. How short sighted can you guys be? I feel sorry for you guys quite frankly.

In sports, there is a term called "treadmill team". Where one team is constantly hovering around poor to barley average. Not going anywhere. They don't suck bad enough that they can accumulate high draft picks, develop talent, and build for the future. But at the same, they're not good enough to make the playoffs and compete for a championship. They are just constantly stuck in a zone of nowhere.

The 180man regulars field, are littered with treadmill guys.

When are you guys going to get off the "treadmill"? You pay 50-30% to your backers for staking and maybe some coaching. With the coaching you get, its probably more obligation coaching - they deal with their obligations to you and finish with you as soon as they can. Not only are you not receiving quality attention, you're also receiving information from unqualified sources. And that's IF you get any coaching at all.

Your game is going nowhere. Progressing at a snail's pace. Whatever little money you make, you split it with your backer. You scrape by and are not good enough to make any real money - constantly required being staked. Just repeating the same cycle. Staying the same. Not going anywhere. And you're happy to pay 50-30% for THIS?

Alternatively, you can come work with me. Pay your dues for 1 year, get staked+coached by me for 50%. In 1 year, you will have all the skills necessary to earn a 100k+/year income. Get quality coaching. Learn the game from the ground up, the right way - taught by someone who actually knows what he is doing.

Do you guys realize that even after paying me this supposed "ridiculous" cut, you will still probably make more money each month than you guys are now in your respective deals?

Go ahead and sharkscope my 1st student - srollins44. The only student that has done extensive training with me (unfortunately he couldn't continue due to black Friday). He started June '10. Look at his progress. Now look at your current progress. Matter of fact, there is a solid chance he actually has made more money in his time with me then you have in your entire playing career.

But hey, lets say you pay the same in a deal with me vs your current backer. You guys are essentially paying rent. Lining up the pockets of your backers (landlord) and have more or less nothing to show for after your arrangement ends.

With me, you're paying a mortgage. Pay the same amount of money but you're now building equity through your home (yourself). You actually have something to show for after our arrangement ends - the essential knowledge and skills to be a top-level 180 player.

The 180s are a straightforward game to teach. Anyone can become a top-level player. You just need the right instructions. By completing my training program, you WILL succeed. You are literally 1year away from making six figures.

But of course you have to pay your dues 1st. Nothing comes free. Nothing comes easy. You have to work your ass off. My program is rigorous and certainly not for majority of people out there.

So when are you guys going to look at your situation and realize its not going anywhere? When are you guys going to get off the treadmill? So please, have a laugh at the "suckers" that decided to train with me. How you gonna feel when 1 year later they are making quality incomes and you're still stuck in the same old cycle? Maybe it's time to re-assess your situation and make some changes.

you talk about us being short sighted and to get off the 'treadmill'. But you've grinded 65k sngs when you could have just grinded sngs until you had a sufficient bankroll to grind midstakes mtts and make way more $, THAT is short-sighted. Seems like you need to get off the 180 treadmill and re-assess your situation.

thats one treadmill i wouldnt mind being on

[ProdigyXII]

like I said, he obv crushes 180s but still. Not gradually moving to playing more and more mtts seems like he's sacrificing a tonne of potential earnings

[Dickface]

Do you call forcing people to 5 table so that they break there contract so that you get 5k fair?
Do you call making % deals game based that you can make sure they cant put in a decent volume for 6-9 months of there deal?
Do you call not giving people no coaching for over a month a reason to pay your %?

How about charging someone $750 for 0 coaching and the privilege to view your forum for a few weeks that has 5 registered members?

How about showing up to coaching session that people pay ridic amounts for (and sure you are one of the best coachs even if you are a complete scumbag) and then spending most of the time either talking about how you are drunk or making the session a ghosting session because its a lot easier on you then a HH review?

Your practices are a absolute disgrace and you are by far the worst person I have come across in poker and anyone that is dumb enough to do business with you after reading this deserves what they'll receive

You seem to think that you are gods gift to poker but as ProdigyXII said all good 180 players end up moving into the real games of mtts. I might not be the worlds best or even a great 180s player but at least I know whats a fair deal for people and dont look to rip them off non stop like you do.

Nearly every reg has me on skype, feel free to message me if you want to hear anymore and GL to all on the tables

It would have been kind of you to tell me that the $ 450 was to be wasted and that if I wanted to learn what "the guy knows" I should have gone mortgaging a year of my life on that, because reading your post it kinda actually even makes borderline sense, as did paying $ 450 in advance 20 days earlier and needing to be sure that my family´s health issues where taken care off or I lose the 450 bucks in case an emergency came up @ the session date and time. But 20 minutes before the session you come online on skype asking a reschedule because of "car problems" (those are irony "" , just in case).

I wont copy/paste our several conversations over skype because those where private, but I´m still waiting you to grow a pair and ask apologies for your behavior.

Regards, take care.

José.


PS: my post has nothing to do with the discussion of whether or not your contract is a good or bad investment, I´m just leaving my personal impression on you as a human been (as far as I got to know of you), and not as a 180man grinder, the former of the two being the one you excel in.

This Shen888 guy seems like quite a douche.
