@Biggerboots:
I'm sorry to hear that you don't like the course.
It is also ok that you voice your thoughts and feelings here although i strongly disagree. It's an open place so you are free to say what you think.
My promise for Heads Up Mastermind still stands:
Somebody does the homework, shows them to me and if they are not improving their game/results, i will either refund them and/or give them a lot of free coaching.
Complaining like you did is your right. You are entitled to your own opinion but not your own facts.
Let me explain in more detail and help you to get on the right track:
If the videos would say what you thought was right, then what would be the whole point of it? Unfortunately most people look for self-confirmation when learning.
They watch the conservative tv channel when they are conservative and the liberal version when they are liberal. And then they get confirmation how much "dog sh*t" and how "stupid" the others are.
I know this better than anyone because i am guilty of this myself
. It humbled me a lot when realizing this about myself some time ago.
If a coach says something they disagree with, the coach is "wrong". The coach could have made millions and the student could be broke, but i had NL10 players upright judge a high stakes players (not me in specific, but generally speaking) with the certainty as if they (the NL10 guys!) were the best players out there and KNEW what is right.
Explanation of your critique:
This doesn't mean the coach is perfect and does everything right. There are many different layers to learning and different skills that make a player/coach great. The layer I excell at is to teach UNDERSTANDING and PSYCHOLOGY and ATTITUDE. I am super math based, but i teach and make a lot of exploitative plays which look "wrong" from a pure mathematical perspective, but are hugely +++++ EV because of the other factors involved.
You don't have to take my word for that. Other's have spoken.
I do think that it helps to be humble as a student and give a coach the benefit of the doubt. You have to fully emerge yourself into the thinking of the coach and realize that:
- This coach has repeatedly turned complete losing players into big winners and does this publicly (no other coach does this)
(some of which game select stronger than others...we always adjust this based on the players skill... however you can't have a 10bb winrate on 6max over a huge sample and make like 30k a month on small stakes playing super high volume...

- Has tons of positive and glowing reviews (like 99%) for the course
- Follow the course, do the homeworks as instructed even if you disagree because everybody* who has done it turned out to be a success
- Realize that good things are not easy and that the harder it is for you, the higher the rewards will be
Give it a full try and THEN you can really judge.
*Actually there were 2 people who were not...one of them had awesome results. Let's just say they were super special cases.
Does that mean it is always "your fault" ?
No. I wouldn't go so far. While i get so much positive feedback, i will still not go so far and say my coaching/courses are the solution for "everybody in the universe".
Indeed there are different ways to learn and you might as well be among the 1% of people who just don't connect with the way of learning i propose.
That's why i am willing to help somebody like you either way. And if we realize it's not "meant to be", you will get a refund.
For that to happen, i expect to see a different attitude from you. Do the homeworks, get in contact with me and we'll make you a huge HU success.
If you want to continue to call things dogsh*t that have helped people to make **** tons of money, go and do that. You can curse and use this as an excuse to not become the best version of yourself. You can blame whatever you want. But unless you give it a try, you will get 0,0 sympathy from me.
You know mate, that is not the nicest way, but i really wanna fight for and with you.
I could slime-ball you and give a "no questions asked refund" just to avoid a discussion. That's what most "marketing people" actually suggest. You can read it in every book. When i started to coach a few years ago, i offered refunds to anybody who wanted them.
Very very few asked for it, but i realized after a time that this is not in line with the attitude and philosophy i teach and live.
While the other way would be more "profitable" , my way is more fulfilling for me and gives a lot more value to those students who go that way.
Like mentioned above, i do things differently. I'm not afraid of any feedback because i have the confidence and results to back things up.
What i hope from you is that you have the "**** you Gordon, i'm gonna own you" attitude. Do the homeworks, work hard on your game and you can be assured that if you contact me in a respectful way, you will always be helped.
Always. I never let people down unless they let themselves down. You will be no exception.
