I would like to bring out a tribute to Nate:
Years ago I've had a 5-package deal with him. Playing 50nl (with a small win rate) and struggling with the one the very most important concepts of poker to master....
After our first session, and at first instance I didn't really 'get what he exactly meant', but I did understood it was something about how to 'start being a pro'. After that he focused on exactly this huge leak. I understood what he meant, but I did not follow the right habit to master that leak to get myself beyond 100nl.
After that period I've had great ups, but also huge downs (life and poker = your mental state, so to speak
) But after all these years (there is a review from me from years ago on this page) I now understand so much more of how far this man was, and most likely is so far further into his personal growth at this moment.
Many things he said (I don't have the video's anymore, but gladly enough still the summaries I've made out of these) were SO impressive:
-He told me 'coaching is something for you in the future' which I've done with a former coach ('fooz' 2+2) just a little time after my first connection with Nate. And I'm back 'into business' due to following this path, which had me at rock bottom too due to me not mastering the power of a habit
but got me back on track. Never give up on yourself...
-He told me exactly on what I should focus on, but I didn't create the right habit into 'my system'. But following this --> he will fix your leaks without a doubt;
-BUT the very most important thing was that HE showed me a path to go to through life; he is not just a poker boss, but a mental boss and he will help you to get you started with this. Regarding the spiritiual and mental aspect of life. And this man brought me (outside of other sources; the stuff schools won't teach you, enough said
) to a level that brought me back, back 'home' after a lot of struggles.
I saw his name popping up here in the 'Coaching & Schools) and all I can say: man I remember your sessions with even having a lifted table, and you were totally in the zone listening to me, and so confident and intelligent reacting to everything.
I have much more positive to say about Nate, but I will bring it to you:
Both side of the coints, Nate has got it.
Thanks Nate, we've had great session and I am confident enough to say that you remember me.
No doubt, don't speak; Nate shows
Much love,
