I'm also interested in read-only access, but only if it's priced at what it's actually worth in value, which is absurdly high!

It's $200/hour for people not in the program and $100 for HH reviews but I'm not taking anybody on at the moment because I want to make sure I don't bite off more than I can chew and I've already booked a lot of hours.

Hi all,



I'm playing live donkaments in June, so I'll be taking a reduced number of students (about 15), and I'm giving my current and past FastTrack students the first shot at them. If I had to guess, we'll likely fill up or close to it, but if you are interested, feel free to send me a PM. The price is still $325, and I'm also adding the option of substituting the group coaching session for a 30 minute HH review or a 30 minute live sweat. No promises about the price (or even the continuance of the program) in July, though.

I'm also introducing read-only access for the month of June. There are now tons of resources in the forum - over 2000 posts, a dozen top quality articles, 30 personalized student HH threads, and the kind of advanced material you can't find anywhere else (as the image above suggests). The cost for this is $140 (I'm also giving a discount to previous people in the program). I would like to make it very clear that you need to decide for yourself whether this is right for you - there are a lot of people who would be appalled at paying $140 just to read a forum, and others who would benefit drastically from reading hours and hours of top quality coaching material for the price of less than one hour. In order to keep my students comfortable in the community environment that we've got going, I'll only be taking a very limited number of read-only students, so you may get declined because of this if there is a lot of interest, just fair warning. I have no idea what the interest for this will be, if any, but let me know if you think it's right for you.

Additionally, tonight on HUSNG.com, a video will be released consisting of excerpts from a group coaching session from this month, on raise/calling vs. raise/folding decisions around 20bb deep from the small blind against different opponent types. If you're a premium subscriber there, you can get a peek into the kind of advanced analysis the program offers and just get some value out of it, even if you aren't able to get into the June session due to space restrictions.

Look also in June for an advanced strategy thread in this forum as part of the "Tip of the Week" series that's being started to keep it thriving with good, free strategy posts.

Articles so far:

1. How and when to 3-bet light 30-75bb deep
2. Reacting to People who 3-bet wide 30-75bb deep
3. How and when to check/raise light
4. Endgame Strategy Interview
5. Correctly Applying "Shove or Fold" Endgame Strategy
6. Some hands taking advantage of a nitty image against riyyc225, h2olga, and livb112
7. Errors by Erik Seidel, Chris Moneymaker, and Vanessa Rousso in NBC HU
8. Leak Plugging: Do you call too tight OOP?
9. 11-14bb with marginal hands from the Small Blind: Raise, Openshove, Fold, or Limp? (Advanced ROFL Theory)
10. Chubokov: What it is, what it isn't, and how to separate its useful information from the useless dead ends of Sklanskyland
11. Readless Ranges: Evidence for what to do 20bb deep from the big blind against an unknown opponent.

Still figuring out interest and payment methods, keep the PMs coming, I'll be sending out an update on Wednesday. So far 9 May students have re-subbed for June so it looks like we may fill up in terms of full access slots.

So the $140 is for 1 month readonly access? So I'd have to print it out to be able to read it again later? Or is it just access to the content that has been posted till June, forever?

Also, will there be more read-only opportunities in the future? With the price obv increasing when the amount of articles increases.

For the month, yeah, print out is cool, some full students like to do that with their personalized HH thread. Can't make any promises about future, it could be opened up to greater or lesser access.

Mersenneary is an amazing coach, both in the advice he gives and the way he conducts himself. I strongly reccomend this to anyone who is unsure about it. (As if mers needs a vouch on 2p2)

I was in this in April and May and just renewed for June and will definitely do the same again in July. This is just such a great experience and my game has already improved significantly since I joined this.

Can you show a graph ?

What stakes would benefit the most from this you think ? (open question to everyone including Mers)

Well, one great thing about the program is the community part of it, so yeah I'll post a graph somewhere in June, but for the other students, not here.

It looks like we'll have a couple full access slots left for those interested, priority will probably go to 2+2 folks I already have some experience with but that's by no means exclusive, let me know if you're interested. There should be a couple more read-only slots available, as well.

Probably the biggest student success stories of the month are a couple of students with ~15k months who that's a very new feeling to My apologies to the student who is running 100BI under EV and still managing to break even, you win the Sklansky title of best success story .

We have $10 students and students who play 100 times higher. I wouldn't pay more than 10% of your bankroll for it but different people have different preferences. There hasn't been much of a relationship between stake level and student satisfaction.

I'll sign up for this as soon as i can but since this is ~75% of my current BR i can't really manage it yet.

Is the program still in progress in august? I would very much like to participate. If the read only format is the only option that would be fine too.

FastTrack details should come tonight. It'll be Hokie's first month at the helm, with me just posting a few articles and participating a little on the weekend. All of the old content will be present except for any posts from previous subscribers who don't want certain information public. I think Hokie will do a phenomenal job.
