New Poker Life podcast tomorrow at 2pm EST w/ John Duthie

John plays high stakes cash games, created the European Poker Tour and turned it into something amazing and is now president of Partypoker LIVE events.

John said NOTHING is off limits in our conversation

Thanks, Garrett, I really appreciate that. Was an honor to work with you and incredibly gratifying to hear that our conversations continue to pay dividends.

From your impressive level of output, it appears you're doing quite well already! Having a personal interest in podcasting, I would love to hear more about your behind-curtain process and share some productivity optimizations that seem to universally translate pretty well across similar pursuits. Feel free to hit me up anytime.

Agreed, all coaching is a matter of utilizing leverage to teleport rightward on the learning curve. The potential value is proportional to the value of a marginal hour which is individual and subjective. The best coaches can charge high prices because they summarize years of experience in a few words, immediately revealing blind spots that once perceived, make all necessary actions obvious.

I took down the thread as my current focus is accelerating the growth of startup founders so it is rare for me to work with poker players these days.

However, I recently resumed playing for 20 hours/wk and would be interested in working with 1-2 HSNL players (current winner at 10/20NL+ online) in a trade format where I help optimize productivity in exchange for discussing strategy. If this sounds of interest, you can message me through my website (in my location) or send me a PM.

I'm happy to offer a similar service to any1 for $25/hour.

And I feel I'm more qualified than gomukyaself AND understand the related material to a higher level.

But... feel free to pay $375/hour, this guy USED to beat poker!!!

Joey, you might think this is a troll but what about having your mom on the pod?

... i could just imagine the intro lol

That's a good, succinct way to phrase it, thanks

Party regs know more about this than me but there are many concerns about botting in the SSNL cash games that haven't been seriously addressed, at least not on twoplustwo.

Please ask him what they plan on doing about the rampant botting in their 3-Handed Jackpot Sit & Go's as well and their lack of a poker integrity team to solve the issue. If they were to get this sorted out they'd be the GOAT but they way things stand now it's an absolute disgrace.

Can people please get in touch with me and tell me more about this stuff.

Fantastic. Improving productivity is such a low-hanging fruit opportunity for all players (low stakes included) so I welcome anyone else who has relevant experience to help meet the market need. I would love to work with more clients but only have the capacity for 1 maybe 2 players.

Just for clarification:
1) Offered productivity help as a direct trade. Just my time for their time.
2) I currently beat 5/10+ for ~ 10bb/100. The site is untracked with no HH so you'll just have to take my word for it. I still have a ton of room for improvement in updating my game from pre-BF levels, thus the interest.
3) Ability in poker is a nice bonus (makes strategy discussion more fruitful) but isn't all that relevant to improving productivity. Everyone repeats the same few mistakes pretty much.

Ask John about the change to phase satellites and whether there's room for traditional sats for both live and online.

Also please ask if Party is at all concerned about the churn rate of depositors as all sats lead to players playing in 100+ tourneys and no rakeback for rec players.

Yeah to be fair to Chris/gomukyaself I have reviewed his blog posts on medium.com and his material is a lot better written down than when he's a guest on a podcast.

I do still think he's really overpriced tho

I'm interested in sports psych, I'm interested in podcasts, I'm interested in poker so just as a bit friendly of banter as I am a potential customer- whether it's with your book (which I would love you to be successful with and could see you've made a promising start) or in podcast interviews (where my review is you could do MUCH BETTER (i) the better material you release the more ideas I get ii) I find a lot of similar coaches all seem to have v similar ideas and as a result it's really difficult to distinguish between any of the coaches)) can you improve/can you develop your material to the next level? (You seem to want to with poker STILL, my challenge to you is to do the same with the productivity ideas.)

Hey Joey I really liked the John Duthie podcast. He comes across as a poker player 1st and foremost. That mindset is what the business needs in an era of margin hunters that make most of the decisions in this industry.

Loved the John Duthie pod as well. Its too bad though that we didn't get to end up hearing any stories of how he went broke 3 times.

Those are the most tilting games on any client, imo.

I actually kinda forgot about them... The format would be very alluring for botters.

They're tilting that's for sure but fish love them and there are a lot of pros grinding them at all levels. Bots love them too and it's so frustrating that sites other than Pokerstars aren't taking the integrity of the games seriously and just allowing the cheaters to literally take millions out of the poker community.

On Winamax and Party at the $100+ levels for HU hypers and 3-handed Spin and Go's it's basically who has the best bot that's making all the money and screwing all the honest players.

Sam Trickett would be a great guest at the moment

i just listened to like an hour and a half of the first barry greenstein podcast. why did people like this podcast so much? its just barry stroking his own ego, trying to make himself to sound like the greatest poker of all time. he seemed focused on only sharing stories of other poker players that centered around the player worshiping barry and barry being right. i respect the guy in that he is a legend of the game and has seen a lot through poker, but this podcast was cringey to listen to. not sure where all the "wisdom" was tbh.

Matt Kirk podcast surely has to happen?

The quality of Joey's podcasts is fantastic and the podcasts remain one of the best things in the poker world by far.

yeah i actually had the exact same impression, but probably around 30seconds after you turned off it gets much better in that regard and stays that way for the rest of the first podcast and pretty much all of the second.

Impromptu Sunday night podcast w/ PokerSasha aka Sasha Liu aka probably my future wife to talk about how she can win so much all the time at live PLO games, the out of line things guys say to her at the table, and more
