Hey guys,
It is half month when we started it and we havent even done basic things (just skype chat and some sessions), cause i just cant reach u guys. If you want to continue this then lets finally talk and arrange coachings (and lets make it like iam not the only one online while the coaching should be). I really dont have much time to just through away. I expect that u come and ask from me, when could we do the session, or lets look some interesting hands or sth. With this attitude i can not continue. It isn't what i expected from these sessions.

Come on, you weren't even there last time we agreed.

What I expect from coachings is not analysing separate hands together but something more general like theory and math in common spots, showing how to study efficiently, using HEM, etc. You've been through it all so I guess you should know.

So I still have those questions and gonna try to catch on skype and rearrange. After that if you still feel like wasting time then we can let go of this.

I know Kevvu a long time and when he starts to do something he tries to give it his best, would it be cycling, school, poker or even parties(he fcking bugges me all the time at parties, to go to his favourite bar/club in town).

1) So when he offered free coaching he wanted somebody who wants to study and evolve, with the same kinda motivation he had. When we were studying 180 men he bugged me my every free minute, in the beginning of our 6max SNG time he had the same motivation.

2) Communication, he has been whining to me alot that he cant reach you guys. (Maybe it has been Skypes fault since it has fcked me personally over quite few times, but I doubt it.) For instance if for some reason LT3 or faaracyde would offer me free coachings I would bug them every fcking free minute I have.

3) Be punctual, one day I wanted to join session with Kev and 1 of you, it was supposed to be at 5 PM and at then Kev was waiting, later he told me that you were 1,5 h late. That for me would be unacceptable, if you cant be on time then let the other guy know since then he can also rearrange his plans for the day.(Did you all check your time zones, since that might cause these kinda problems.)

4) Maybe you guys do not have the drive for studying so much because you both are playing at the same time different staking deals, which often puts a lot of strain on person. (I lost my drive for poker for a period of time in the end of last year, when I was grinding under a coaching deal and I had to grind certain amount every month)

These are just my remarks as spectator. Since I understand the guy's motivation to offer free coachings, I have already suggested to him few times that he should find someone who are willing to commit and have the drive. (It's littlebit wrong, when he calls me and wants to know if I know somebody who wants to have free session, since 1 of you didnt show up for yours)

PS! I have nothing personal against you dydukas and axl, these are my opinions, take them how you want, as suggestions or as criticism.

Such a long post and all for nothing. None of that is true. At least for me, I study a lot - at least 2-3 hours a day. If I don't wanna bother him with hands that I can study myself, that doesn't mean I don't want to learn. Always great to get anything for free. And communication wasn't a problem at any time. That time we agreed 5-6pm, not 5 exactly. Anyway I was a bit late nonetheless.

We didnt had many sessions, but we had some skype conversations. They both were in staking deals, so they didnt had really much time like i understood. + my time flexibility were rly small this month, cause i had and still have a lot of uni related things to do (projects, exams...) and ofc poker too. I hope u guys learned something at least, cause i dont think i taught u a lot ♦.

Next month i think i try this thing again. I will take one player, with who i would like to make sessions pretty much every day. Lets see how does that will work out. That player is one estonian. He seems really motivated to learn poker. I think we are going to do some blog again, lets see.

I actually learned a few things but mostly from eval forums. Meh... hypers are a different game and I see many ways how I could improve on my own for now. And time was a bit of a problem too this month. Anyway thanks for the effort and gl next month.

because of you started to learn some 6 max because i wanted to do this for some time.i learned something in our sweat session and the opportunity you gave us was great unfortunately because of stake and school couldn't take advantage of it.

anyway i appreciate the offer and good luck becoming a coach.
