a couple of days of coaching will probably just mess up airbeasts game. the only thing he has got going for him is the deep spew bluffs

it's more of a matter of how you loose and what that journey looks like.

Unless you’re referencing some sort of meme of which I’m unaware, loose ≠ lose

Lose is the opposite of win.

Loose is the opposite of tight.

Pretty sure English isn’t your first language, but I just wanted to point it out in case it matters to you

Anyone thinking that "hey my friend needs to be there too" is reasonable at these stakes is incredibly naive.

Nick airball is a pussy btw, he went back to sitting pretty quickly.

Berkey isn’t a fighter either so it looks like he wants no part of match so he’s trying to make it not happen, if he hates him so much take 2 million off him and be able to gloat on podcast, airball said he lost 100k, Berkey mental game seems shot so he likely will lose.

Literally everyone has a coach.

Both Dneg and Polk had teams of coaches helping them between sessions.

I'd be shocked if almost anyone playing at that level of stakes doesn't have at least one coach. Only the sickest of dgaf rich guys are just playing those stakes regularly without lerning/coaching.

I would have put the odds at about Berkey -250, but with Doug coaching Airball (assuming he is coachable, which is in doubt as someone pointed out), I think that about evens it up. Doug is simply the best in the game at heads-up, his strategy tips will be invaluable.

I cant afford $4,000 poker camp better get on the internet and attack the owner so I can feel good about myself. The idea that and of you mentally disabled care about consumers getting value is laughable. Where's your hate for housing market prices? How about gas? Homelessness? Corporations buying regulators?????? The country is burning down and you dopes are butt hurt over poker coaching prices.

How do you know hes just not asking a honest question? He is probably a dumb dick but people who assume things annoy me more. I remember doug had a team of the best headsup players while Daniel used some not top hu coaches.

berkey already +400k only like 5 hours in. airball busted visiting his jerkoff buddy in the bathroom. spectacular
fyi 400k is 1000 bb's ROFL They are playing antes but still its only been a couple hundred hands

Seen some funny memes but what's the actual issue with Nik giving Balla a quick update or is it just a joke because he talking him in the bathroom.
I mean if he was talking Polk or an actual good player I could see it being something but wtf is a losing player like Balla going to help with.
Berkey apparently constantly on his phone wouldn't it seem more likely he's getting help in between hands

Its a huge lead tho and if airball is down 1 million does he keep going? two million? hes already half way there we dont really know how rich this guy is other then hes full of ****. 1000 bb's is not an insignificant amount. Also just because airball is going to "cover him" doesn't mean berky cant sit down with 40k-100 at the start of sessions. which is what he did today and now hes up 500k. He better get at it because Berkey wont have 500k infront of him very often.

But I think the most important thing is nik is not a pro and probably gonna start punting even more

So much **** online so no idea what's true but 700k pot Nik,which if true is exactly what I just said about only taking 1 hand if Nik going to keep covering him
