Hi Guys,

I get quite a few requests for coaching for PLO, however I chose never to do it because I dont believe I can offer value at the money I'd want to charge (if that makes sense) however I am going to do a one time offer, over the next two months for the benefit of a charity Smiley

The Offer

I am going to sell an unspecified amount of sessions (75+15mins total roughly) I will start with a chat about what you want, if its me to sweat you, you to sweat me, us to look over a ton of hands, look at the stats or for me to show you my hands etc whatever you would prefer and we think will be most beneficial, interesting and enjoyable for you.

SO we might decide to just rail me play for an hour and I'll explain my thought processes as I go, or I'll open my poker tracker (I know dirty words !!! Wink ) and show you hands I think are interesting and explain why I did what I did when I did it, we can do anything (within reason, god knows what some of you will have me do!)

IMPORTANT

This really is suitable for anyone of any experience, if you are very new to plo, even if you dont have any of your own hands saved, if you are very new to poker even any level of poker knowledge is abso fine, if you just wanna learn a bit more about PLO (or the way I view PLO at least :p ) I'd actually really enjoy talking to some people are un-involved but interested in PLO right now as hopefully will get a few people into enjoying the game I love Wink

The cost of this will be £100, and it will be donated to a charity (will explain further in a second)

Why I feel qualified to offer this

Firstly, I get asked for coaching on a regular basis by people, I refuse always for mainly the reason I stated (I don't believe that a price exists where it's value for both parties - the amount I think is value to the customer is an amount below what I would like to charge - after all as a poker player all i have is what I know, and I spent a long time and lost a decent amount of money learning what I now know so I'm precious over sharing it.)

I have been playing online PLO for 4 years now, and it took me a long time to get to grips with it (I was a bad player for a long time prolly despite early successes) but in the last 12 months I think my game has rocketed and I am confident describing myself as one of the best regular players on ipoker (where I play) at stakes between 1/2 and 10/20. I've been a consistent winner at these stakes for 2 years, boasting 3-4bb/100 win rate over big samples across the stakes.

The Charity

A very close friend of mine has been working with the charity "Cure Rett" for the last year and it's a fantastic charity which was founded by parents of children with Rett Syndrome which can be a paralyzing and life damaging syndrome for children, this group from whitby raised £10,000 earlier this year doing the London Triatholon and are targeting £3,000 for their next crazy assault course attempts, the last one being in early september. It's a lot of work and my friend has worked so hard trying to organise it all that I would like to help her/them reach their targets.

Here is the link:
https://www.justgiving.com/ToughMudderforCureRett/

How to get involved

If you would like to do this then donate £100 using the above link, put X(your blonde screen name)blondepoker in the donation bit so I know its you, and then post here ITT and i'll be in touch to set it up Smiley

Hopefully this will be fun, and we will raise some money.

Look forward to PLO'ing with some of you Wink

I don't even play PLO much anymore, I find it a bit too confusing when playing PLO8 at the same time, but will give it a go. 

Great that you are doing this.

Most of the bets placed so far seem more like hopeful punts rather than value spots

Really nice idea and as silly as it sounds... I'm proud of you for doing it!

Might get myself a beginners PLO session!
Imagine the kind of carnage I can cause with 2x as many hole cards!
