Online mtt coaching from HERSCHELW

[herschelw]

There have been a bunch of requests for me to do a video and that's not really something I'm interested in doing so. I've offered this at another forum and many members decided to take me up on the offer. In the past I have done private mtt, sng, and mixed game coaching for a fee for players looking to improve thier game. I typically charge $50/hr with a 4 hr minimum. I have been thinking for a long time now on a way to offer this same coaching in a slightly more affordable manner to players who dont feel comfortable or are unable to spend this kind of money on coaching. Below is what I have come up with and am currently offering to members of online forums I am a part of.

Coaching package:
I am offering a coaching package that will include a 1hr private lesson with me discussing any issues or concerns you may have about your game. I will answer any and all questions you may have which can range from bankroll management issues to what your options are with 15 players left in the tournament and 15BB's in your stack. During this hour we will probably spend most of the time walking through a HH I have posted on pokerxfactor's HH viewer and teaching you new "moves" and equiping you with new weapons.
Secondly I will review and give you a written critique of one complete mtt HH of your choice. I will address your overall mtt strategy as well as identifying hands of interest and showing you different ways to play them. I will also identify situational plays you should understand. Additionally I will be available throughout the next 30 days(after your lesson) to look at individual hands and critique them as well as address any questions you may have on mtt play.

Group lessons
I am planning to offer stud and stud h/l group lessons. During these group lessons we will be covering cash game and tournament stud strategies as well as the differences between stud and stud h/l starting hand values. These will be $15 per person for a one hour lesson. Groups will be limited to a maximum of 6 students per lesson.
If you are interested in group lessons post here or pm me and I will get back to you with available dates.


References
Two players that I have coached that can attest to the quality of coaching provided and the value you will receive are chomper4(cakepoker and AP) and pokeracer(stars). I think they would both be happy to share with you some of the things they learned from receiving coaching.

What's the cost of the package?
The cost of this coaching package is $100


Skype or AIM
The best way for us to conduct the lesson is over a microphone($10 at walmart). I normally use skype(a free program you can download) for this purpose. I'm also willing to conduct lessons over AIM or a similar program if you dont have access to a microphone.


My mtt experience


Moneymaker Million
I finished 2nd in the moneymaker million final for $300,000 in Jan 2007. There were 840,000+ unique players that entered this tournament online and then 27 players in the live final. This tournament is currently being aired on TSN in Canada and various stations in Europe. Pokerstars informed the participants during the tournament that they anticipated it being aired in the U.S. on ESPN in June or July.


I have recently joined the team at donkit.com as one of thier teaching professional poker players and my seven card stud videos are now available on thier site for purchase.
