Absolutely great lesson 2day and fantastic (and very instructive) experience with this new format of coaching.
Thank you very much Coach and thanks to Pokerstrategy for employing some great people like the Coach TheNose
I really loved it
Good coaching. The coach explained the situations before I could even ask. Go on like that.
good coaching.. when no asking.. he ask of there a questions... he answers any question.. stupid or not..
first time... not the last
go on!
Back yesterday to joing this coaching after long time (due my business in private life) just to enjoy a great lesson from our coach.
Thanks TheNose for coaching.
I have really enjoy the coaching tonight where I found extremely smooth and istructive what the Coach has teaching in his HU Strategy. I hope more then wish that can be much more HU Poker coaching in future.
Thank Coach for it!
well, so I'm gonna throw my 2 cents in right away before i forget
to say it in a nice and simple way: yay for Heads-up SnG Coaching
out of several weaknesses I know about (guess there are way more that i still don't recognise ♦ ), my heads-up performance in FR SNGs certainly sucks the most
not when I or the other guy is really short (SAGE is helpful) - but when both have same stacksize left and blinds are relative small I'm often lost
in a normal coaching these situations don't happen that often, and when they do there are 3 other tables that interfere - so I liked this one, though the game was at times a bit deep to be a good sample - therefore I really liked the turbos that got mixed in
anyway ... kind of developing into a fanboy here,:rolleyes:
thanks, and for another go at heads-up: anytime
Coaching was great made me realise I was indeed a little too passive. So i went and played just one little match before dinner.
Got these two I guess they're standard after one of your coachings... ♦

Very nice session, including special and general topics suggested by the users.
Suggestion: Would it be possible to have coachings about specific topics in the form of a theory discussion or review of selected hands rather than commented live play?
I would be interested in -EV pushes, calling All-Ins, deviating from Nash in HU and loosening up vs fish in the early stages.
Some brainlag due to the cold, but nevertheless explaines all the situations and questions well. Good!
Oh and thanks for dedication even when being sick.
For today's coaching you'll need the two Hand Histories TheNose will be talking about. You can find them here:(right click->save)

You will also need the universal replayer, here is a small guide on how to install & use:
[Guide] Universal Replayer - Session Review in our live coaching
Thanks a lot for reviewing my hand histories!
I got some pointers that will be useful in many spots like open raising sizes at high blind levels and how to adapt preflop iso-ranges when there are pot-committed shorites in the blinds.
But most importantly: Thanks for telling me that I don't have to be afraid to play 55$ SNGs. That helps a lot. :-)
Thx for this nice Coaching! Good explanations to the questions.
Will there be a "Private coaching with public viewing" in the near future and are there some possibilities to apply? I really would like to have some comments about my game.
Good time and a bunch of luck!
please allow me to introduce myself,
i am from the german community and my english is very limited and bad. so its better to express it with a pic

Hey TheNose,
Will pop in for your session on Thursday! Always good to work on my HU game, especially when the feedback on here is so good about your coaching sessions
Looking forward to it! Keep up the good work!
