Poker Training
We have completed the initial training with the group of 9 players and I have been very impressed with their play. My wife Keli sat in on the training as well for a total of 10. I went around and watched each of them play for a half hour and they must have paid attention because the play was very good. They played for a full day for the first time yesterday.
I told them to email me all their results. I have not gotten emails from all of them yet, so I sharkscoped them and amazingly enough all 10 had winning days on their first day! Each of them started at different buyin levels based on experience and ability. They made $4187.40 as a group, not including rakeback and bounties from some of them that haven't emailed me yet. This includes one player (changethief8) who made $2283.15 playing the high stakes multi-table sngs.
I have already been contacted by others who want me to do another poker training group. This is a strong possibility, but I want to see how the group does as a whole over the course of the final 5 weeks these guys are here.
I will post updates on the group as the training goes on.

Hi Pimpindonks,
1) Do you think is it possible to learn a lot of poker stuff in one week class?
2) Do you have any interest to give a one week class if we pay you an amount,like 1000$ each student + 40% earning?
3) If yes on both, how many student would you like for one week to execute this plan?
Thanks,
Have a nice day!

Oh, and how have I been doing? I have had time to play 241 games. With a profit of $6,553 and an ROI of 29%. Not bad for the professor!
I had the opportunity to watch your video's element of a winning poker player and sit n goes vs tournaments vs cash games. These two videos were very well written, produced and contained lots of good useful and relevant information. Well done sir! However, the quest to improve my poker playing skill leaves me with a desire for more knowledge and some questions.
1. What poker authors/book titles do you read and what material do you consider must reads.
2. As a producer of quality poker video training who's videos do you watch to improve your game.
3. In your video sit n goes vs tournaments vs cash games what is your selection criteria to play a table, a tournament, or a sit n go?
#3 could be another video subject for you.
dwoods3089, thanks for the positive feedback on my videos I appreciate it!
I am a big fan of the Harrington on Holdem books. They contain his thoughts on various poker topics and sample hands to show the concepts in practice.
When I watch videos now I usually watch high stakes cash game players or heads up high stakes matches. If they are a solid winning player I will watch their videos. I don't have one specific person I watch.
In my new sng video series one of the videos I will make will cover the topic of game selection. So I don't want to go into to much depth here in the forum because I will be talking about my thoughts on the subject in the near future in video format.
Nice work sir, will you be coaching virtually?
