I am considering getting into a CFP with a friend of a friend, right now I play live poker predominantly but want to be able to move abroad to Asia or Eastern Europe. I don't know the profitability of 6max Hold em games online, as I have mostly played in casinos for 2 years.

Is online hold 'em truly unprofitable now? People are whining about games are dead, I was going to make the switch to Omaha but don't have the bankroll.

I am rambling now, I wanted you guys to chime in with your answers on what makes a great coach. I don't think i can make it to the level of poker I want to make it, on my own. So I am considering a CFP program but want to know what makes a good coach.

The weakest part of my game is mental game, and improving off the table. I would need a lot of direction and constant supervision if I were to get a coach.

What are your guys experiences with coaches? What were the biggest positives and negatives from your experience?
