Also most of the videos comes along with homeworks.
Homeworks are a nice idea to try what Gordon said and to think about spots in poker.
...Most homeworks ask to record a small vid and explain why you are doing a line, this forces you to think... obv a good thing.
Thanks.

Its good that you state your opinion and i can understand that it can be frustrating if you don´t find what you want (i would be as well).
Most students definitely see this as something very positive though.
I typically teach one concept / statistic in particular and then show how this applies to many different aspects and draw the BIG PICTURE.
This way, we´re not just throwing around abstract numbers and go on theoretical discussion. I like to keep things practical and easy to implement.
After all, i want that my students play better and not talk smarter.

You´re a high stakes Sng player, very rational and smart. You probably enjoy theoretical discussion with friends (like myself).
If anybody is looking for 1 hour powerpoint presentations about deep game theoretical concepts, Do Not BUY HU MASTERMIND.
You point out exactly what i do. I give numbers ("cheating") and tell people exactly how to adjust if opponent does y. You said it better then i could ever have.
This is the biggest value in the course. Straight, effective, precise information that produce results.
HU Mastermind teaches you how to make money and is not a PHD dissertation.
I instantly refunded you, because people like you learn in a different way and this was for somebody like you a mis-buy.
From your point of view it is hard to understand how valuable precise advice can really be. Actually my good friend and former student Scipio said similar lines before his big breakthrough.

A beginner hearing that could misunderstood a part of the game and this isn't good.
It sounds a bit condescending, although i´m sure this was not your intention. But a course for NL50- Nl400 is certainly not beginners.
I see motivated, smart and young people and not "beginners". Although, even beginners *could* start here.
I don´t like to brag, unless forced to. But i have a very long history of proven success when it comes to coaching. Not only in poker, where i´ve helped over 100 students and turned complete beginners into high-stakes winners.
I could tell you have many struggling class mates i´ve helped at the age of 12 to become straight A-students and learn a year long material in 3 days.
(Those are not my own words btw)
I don´t know what your coaching history is in order to make such a blunt statement like "this is harmful to beginners".
Phew, I probably take this to serious. But yeah, you found my weak point
I wasn´t able to help you. And trust me, this is a scratch on my pride !
But i live and thrive to constantly improve. And if anybody helps me to improve, even better!
