About 6 Max CG Coaches and Hand Evaluations

Hi IvicaIliev77,

thx for the post and your explanation about how you gear up in No Limit nowadays!
For your questions:

1) lnternet developed decided to pursue his own business that does not allow us to keep him as a coach. For others: we have a somewhat natural fluctuation, meaning guys like w34z3l come, others go. If you have any particular question - please ask. In general whilst we are happy to build names and work closely with a steady team, the most important thing are new ideas and great content - even if it sometimes takes fresh blood.

2) Short: no.
Long: In the end of January we announced the end of our hand evaluation service and instead promoted user driven discussions with a reward system & highlighted hands specifically chosen by coaches for discussions. You can read more in the announcement news and have a look how the leaderboard is developing here.
You probably want a bit more insight on why this 'cut' ?
(Please apologise if this is very rough outlined, of course there are some more details)
2-3 years ago the poker industry was a very different one. Poker rooms were focussing on rake generation and with our big focus on VIPs and allowing anyone to reach the high end, that worked together pretty well.
Nowadays poker rooms see that rake is not everything if that only ends up in cashouts while new players are not coming and thus not adding money anymore. That is why also poker rooms now change their rewards for affiliates towards generating new and depositing players.
Well, we are still a poker school, we might focus more on beginners course, on buzzfeed like news and quizzes. But we still do awesome content - but unlike in the past at a scalable level. A video and coaching can be watched by many - thus you will find rather these. Hand Evaluations in the past acted as a little private, subsidized coaching. On top we made an analysis of our players who used this service: the players who used it in the past in general developed worse on a strategy points level than players posting in other areas of the board. This does not mean that they start to loose, but they could also simply once they improve return to their untracked poker room, thus requiring us to not have an immediate loss with every hand evaluation. Please make some estimations - a player rarely needs more than 20$ generated rake in one of our rooms to be silver on PokerStrategy with the daily bonus points (which does not mean our income).
But before I start more what-if-scenarios, I think this change logically and of course also sadly had to be made. Wish I could have made it above 1k micro stakes hand evaluations during the years.

CU,
SvenBe
