Hello 2+2!

Some info about me
I have been playing poker for about 6 years. I turned pro in mid 2020 and climbed the stakes from micros to 500NL+.
I am currently playing 500NL and 1000NL on apps, with occasional action up to 5000NL if the tables are really good.
I have experience as a poker coach since October 2022 with more than 40 different students.

I am offering 1-on-1 coaching to aspiring poker players who are looking to improve their game.
My coaching is focused on population exploits (MDA strategy) mixed with GTO knowledge, which is the approach I am using in my own game.

I am also offering a spot in my CFP program for people I have previously coached who I believe are a good fit and we communicate well.

Here is my graph, a mixture of 100NL and 200NL:

Most of my volume on 500nl+ is untracked because I mainly play on the apps these days, where the games seem to be the highest EV.

Who is this coaching aimed at?
Aspiring poker players who want to climb through the stakes, or just improve their game. I have worked with both professional and part time players in the past.
I am mainly interested in coaching players who have at least some basic knowledge (Ideally if you already play at 25NL or higher, but it is not a requirement). I have coached some microstakes players in the past, but usually I found it very inefficient for the student and recommended learning basics first.
I can also offer population tendency information for higher stakes players who are looking to implement more exploitative strategies into their game.

What does my coaching look like? What is my approach as a coach?
I like to focus on specific needs of the student. Coaching usually starts by analyzing where the player is currently at, and then focusing on spots that require most attention. However, I can also coach the exploitative approach from scratch.
I have a library of presentations and materials for various topics that cover the majority of the game tree. Based on the specific needs of the player, we can pick any topic.
I am always available over text to answer questions from my students.

How does the coaching layout look like?
First class is always focused on getting to know each other, to find out where the student is currently at. This is usually done by a quick database review to identify the major leaks and see some hand histories to get a grasp on the student's though process.
Future classes always revolve around specific spots in the game tree, based on the needs of the player, but the first sessions usually focus on population exploits and how to apply them in game.
After each session the student receives written notes in form of a PDF document with the pivotal points from the class.
The coaching layout can always be adjusted or changed in accordance to the player's specific desires or needs.

What do I offer:
- Elite MDA coaching based on up-to-date population information, with detailed exploitative lines and principles mixed with GTO knowledge and explanations
- How to exploit according to GTO (How does a solver exploit a specific leak)
- Long time mentoring
- Teach you general approach to the game and understanding of poker's "hows and whys"
- Specific player pool exploits and adjustments for the major poker rooms
- Specific player pool exploits for your current stakes
- Specific adjustments and "hardcore exploits" for anonymous player pools, but also adaptations for non-anonymous player pools and how to exploit specific individuals
- How to exploit based on simple River HUD stats
- Database reviews, mainly revolving around River stats
- Hand reviews / Session reviews / Live rail sessions
- Identifying leaks in your own game and showing you why these usually happen (and how you can fix them)

FAQ
How long are the coaching sessions?
- Typically 60 minutes

Do I have to have a database of hands before we start the coaching?
- No, you don't. If you have one we will look through your stats to know where we should start, but the strategy I will be teaching you will be very different from what most players are used to, which means your stats will likely change anyway.

Can I book a few sessions or do I have to book a bigger package?
- You can book any amount of hours you please. I highly advise new students to first book a small amount of hours before booking larger amounts, to see if they like me as a coach and if they like my approach and style of coaching.

Does your MDA work for my stakes/pools/site?
- Yes, it does. There are of course differences between pools and stakes, but this is covered in my MDA teaching.

I am interested in your coaching, but not 100% sure yet. Can you provide a short intro for free?
- Definitely yes! Reach out to me via Discord and we can arrange something.

If you are interested or have any questions, feel free to contact me here in the thread, via DM or shoot me a friend request on Discord!
Please note my response time is much better on Discord, as I don't visit 2+2 every day.

GL at the tables!

I've been coached by him for two sessions so far (4 hours) and I have eight hours to go. I'm playing 100nl and I decided to learn MDA stuffs because I wanted to raise my red line. Just after 2 hours session with him, I felt more confident to play vs both reg and fish. I learned that pool is usually nitty and we can make a lot of profit by attacking them with effective line and bet sizing. The best thing of his MDA strategy is it's easy to follow and effective. We don't have to memorize solver results or take too much time to count combos. We can just take the most profitable line and take pots

+ he is friendly easy to talk to. energetic and has a passion for coaching. I really enjoy talking to him.

I decided to start the recruitment for a CFP.

If you are interested or want to know more details, contact me via discord or DM!

I purchased (2) 90 min coaching sessions and just finished both of them. I would recommend him to players trying to learn MDA to increase their winrate. On our last session we exclusively went over how to exploit fish and whales, this session alone will increase my WR by a 1/2bbb. I've never heard any other coach go into detail on fish exploit lines, even though it seems to be the single most important part of a poker player's game. I wish I was able to see the actual data (he doesn't show you the data he tells you what it says) but I understand it's too valuable to show people since it's a 250 million hand DB.

MDAcoaching is a bright guy and cut's through a lot of the fog of playing poker. There's a ton of misinformation out there (especially on forums like these) so having your plays backed up by data provides some certainty in an otherwise uncertain climate. MDA is the fastest and most effective path to go from micro stakes to mid stakes. I'd recommend him to anyone that plays 2nl to 200nl. He will definitely make you a better player.

Thanks for the feedback, I appreciate it and I am glad you liked our sessions!

We just scratched the surface of MDA and I am sure there will be a lot more to learn for you in our future sessions

NOVEMBER PROMOTION

During November, I will be giving away free 30 minute consultations to the first 10 people to contact me here or on Discord.

The consultation will consist of a quick database review (if you have a database) and a quick general introduction to MDA!

Feel free to reach out!

I have been getting a lot of messages and new friend requests on Discord from people asking for my coaching. While most people usually introduce themselves pretty well, there are still some persons who do not write any info about them and it is very hard for me to communicate then.

Please, if you are interested in my coaching, introduce yourself and provide some basic info (name, where are you from, time zone, what stakes do you play, what experience you have, what are you looking for, etc.), because then it is so much easier for us both to communicate from that point onward.

I still have one free consultation left if anyone is interested.

Messaged you already!

I've been coached by him for more than 10 hours. The content of coaching is very practical and can be used immediately in practice. Most of his coaching focuses on bluffing, which will be of great help to players struggling with the red line. Based on the data, he shows how out of balance we can overbluff (mainly on river), and you'll often be surprised at the results that data shows. Making a profit with a simple strategy without having to memorize complex solver results is a big advantage of this lecture.

Thanks mate, I appreciate the feedback and I am glad you liked our coaching. It was nice working with you, you are very intelligent and always asked very interesting questions.

Good luck

I have been coached by him for more than 15 hours total in the past half a year.
My review on this coach is that he can provide very valuable up to date information on population tendencies and detailed but straightforward explanations on how to exploit them. I am very happy with the results of the coaching. My red line has improved tremendously and I am much more confident in bluffcatching scenarios. What surprised me the most was the strategy he uses versus fish/whales, which is very different from other players I am in touch with. I look forward to our future coaching sessions and I can 100% recommend this coach to anyone who is serious about their game. He is very communicative and responds to a lot of my questions outside of our coaching sessions.

Hey bro, thank you for the review. I am looking forward to doing more sessions together
