this is brilliant.

1. free drinks at casinos
2. save pan-handled money that would've been spent on booze
3. lessons from OP
4. ??????????
5. insta-bankroll
(here comes the part that people just can't figure out)
6. ??????????
7. sleeping on the street under a pizza box


now if you could just get rid of 6 and 7 you'd be golden.

OP, please tell me this is part of a large prop bet. If so, awesome.

Otherwise, you have to be kidding me. This is like the worst idea ever. If you want to help the less fortunate (which is a great thing) donate to poor kids in Africa or China or something. Your idea is a total waste.

You will fail.

" That would be soooo easy to teach someone with half a brain how to make a grand or two a month. You could make that playing the penny stakes."

lol I wish that were true. I think like less then 20% of players are winning players, I have been playing many years small stakes.. I wish I could make that kind of money. It's not as easy as you say. Your plan is flawed and these homeless people will not become winning players.

Can I ask what your lesson plan might be?

pop quiz -
1. .25/.50 NLH 6max 100bb Stacks
you raise 3.5bb on button w/ A9s big blind calls, flop K74 rainbow. big blind checks what do you do?

A.Check
B.Continuation Bet
C.Smoke Crack Rock
D.All-In

You could weed out alot of the bad students if they answer A or C
So you narrowed it down to B or D, did you flip a coin to decide?

I posted in ssnl but thought it'd get more responses here

I thought of doing this a while ago, and maybe after summer I will put this plan into action. I'm going to put together a team of homeless dudes and show them my playbook i put together off my own beats. Not the homeless people who could be working but aren't, but the guys who seriously have had some bad luck/could use a break.

One time last year I just got done meeting someone for lunch. I walked out to my car and was getting in and someone rode up to me on their bike as I was closing my door. I rolled down my window and he asked if I could share any money at all. There was something real convincing about this guy for some reason. Like he really did need it. He told me he'd been riding around all day trying to be able to afford a room for him and his wife to stay for the night. You could tell he had like $20 in quarters in his pockets cause dude was jingling like crazy. We talked for a minute, and he asked if I could even just spare a little change, he'd appreciate it. I asked how close he had gotten so far on the day for the room. He said he was $8 away. I grabbed $8 and gave it to him. This guy was ecstatic! He couldn't believe I had given him $8. It was like the lottery to him. I've never met someone more grateful in my life for something. For some reason I just really believed this guy could use a break, and I felt great that day that I was able to help him out.

That was just one day though. Who knows, the next day maybe he had to ride his bike all around town again trying to afford food/shelter. If tomorrow it's same [censored] different day, I didn't really help him, I just prolonged his situation.

Give a man a fish, he'll eat for a day. Teach a man to fish, he'll eat for a liftime. But what if I took a bunch of guys like that and showed them how to provide for themselves. Poker is so easy that there's still soooooo much free money at the lower levels that I think some smart homeless dudes could be tearin [censored] up. I mean, think about it. A lot of people need like $3,000/month to live. Homeless people don't need anything near that. If they could learn to make even just $1,000/month playing poker it would change their lives forever. That would be soooo easy to teach someone with half a brain how to make a grand or two a month. You could make that playing the penny stakes. It would seriously change their lives. I would get a bunch of guys seriously in bad situations, and try and change their life.

So.................

thoughts on this idea?
teach me then
