Great idea willy, if there is interest I am happy to offer myself as a coach (dunk's idea sounds good, $25min for 1 hour + i will match the donations)

And he's not a half bad coach, so someone should probably snap this up.

Nice idea Dunk, I made a $100 matching donation to the Red Cross.

Great to see so many legends offering their time.

BTW, to be as safe as possible, I recommend going directly to the giving organization's Web site rather than linking to it.

wow willyo, you really are the man.

This should defs be linked to the Willyoman appreciation thread. If I was any good I would offer my coaching services. Unfortunately I'm not, so shall make a personal donation instead

Unless someone wants help with low stakes 45s

I am offering coaching lessons in exchange for Haiti Relief Donations

Donations will be given to American Red Cross (www.redcross.org). Donations can be given by clicking on the "Donate Now" button on their website, by phone 1-800-733-2767, or by texting "Haiti" to 90999 to send a $10 donation to the Red Cross.
- If you dont want the information I can give you, please visit redcross.org on how you can help. A quick $10 donation using your text ms service on your phone would be fantastic. Please post a reply and make yourself known for making a donation in helping our world community.

For your donation to the Haiti Relief Fund I am going to offer you the following:
1) a list of online resources that will cover every aspect of online poker. From HUD's to calculators, video tutorials, recording your stats, and forums. These resources will teach you everything of poker from basic to advanced and are must-haves if you want to make a good living with online poker.
2) my strategy and assistance. Give me a pm if you have a question about a hand you played, or a question in general. I've been playing online poker for over 4 years, small and high stakes, all different areas of NL Holdem, have had many ups and downs, have lived and played in Vegas, written many strategies and experimented on the best possible ways to make money from this game, and am currently working on a poker mentor program that wont be finished til months from now.
3) some quick advice that is very important to put you in the right direction!

My goal: I want to raise $500 for Haiti Relief. If anybody can make a donation, please give me a pm (and post) with confirmation of the amount you donated. Thanks to all ===

For those looking to do stars theres a thread in BBV with a guy accepting donations, Im sure that will be acceptable, it at least will be for my offer

Cool man! And yeah, of course everyone should work out whatever works best for them and whatever makes them most comfortable.

I can teach people how to play blackjack

This is a genius idea and am also prepared to offer mentoring or whatever for the going rate of $25 per hour and will also match donations to the tune of $100. PM if you want to talk poker with an unqualified 2p2 poster and are happy to donate to the cause.

Nice idea willy, I'll offer some coaching for this. $100 for an hour, $50 for a half hour. PM me if interested.

Hey, i want to give something, but i have no opportunity to cash out from my account. Sooo basically i want to give money to somebodys account...ssync, can you please accept 100 dollars and process it from there?

Maybe check this out:

Oops nm, 2p2 removed the thread to avoid any issues.

im on fulltilt, but i am kiiiiinda skeptical giving it out to sombody else than a mod or a frequent poster. So if YOU, willyman, could give me a hint, i would be pleased.

Sorry man, I can't help with that one as I don't do any transfers. I just gave directly myself. Maybe 2p2 will bring that post back or someone else you can trust will help.

yeah, then forget about the PM i just sent you :P

Just gave $100 directly to unicef!

You guys better do the same or better! im just a poor student

GOOGOGOGOG

A+ work

Update:

We're up to $700 in donations and commitments made directly to organizations. Great work!

At least nine coaches have generously offered their time.

From my end, the first coaching sessions went well, and I'm looking forward to more tomorrow.

It's great to see so many all-star MTT'ers offering their time to coach and a willingness to match contributions as far as they are able.

Do your own research, but in my opinion, so many coaches giving their time ITT are offering substantial bargains on their coaching. This has turned into a really unique opportunity to get one-on-one time with strong players while also helping a good cause. Keep up the good work!

well, if any of the coaches have any time, i wont say no.

if there is a list, put me on the bottom

Hey man, there's no list; each coach is running their own thing separately, and you'll have to follow instructions in their posts.

Most have asked you to PM them if you would like to work with them.

So if you want coaching, go ahead and send that PM! They posted here to help.

Like most things in life, you don't get what you don't ask for

haha, true but im lazy as $$$$

Life coaching, anyone?

Fwiw I already donated 100$ and pledge 1% of the rest of my profit in january(lol if I actually profit fml)....
