Would any experienced 6max/HUNL coach/stable or Staker be interested in this proposition?
TLDR is included at the bottom :)
But if there are any coaches or stable owners/Stakers looking for a serious horse, you might be interested in my story.
So,
I really want to improve my 6 max NLHE game as well as my HUNL game. But I am a losing player. Sometimes I am +EV but that is when I am on my A game and not making dumb mistakes by defending too much, not making correct cbets and not effectively utilizing double/triple barrel bluffs.
My mental game was a huge problem and i ordered a copy of Jared Tendlers book; The Mental Game of Poker, This is helping me a bit (haven't finished it yet just bought it a few days ago) but so far has helped me turn a free $15 bonus into $180 (but I lost a bit of it due to tilt since I broke up with my gf just yesterday.....damn it, I knew i shouldn't have played poker for at least a week to get past the emotional phase!!) but did anyways I grinded it back slightly by moving down in stakes so I do have discipline. (also i made a rule that if i tilt, i move down to HUNL at the $0.02/$0.05 level and $1 sit n gos)
I used to make multiple $20 deposits. Sometimes 2 a day when I would tilt but usually once a week. But, after going through a heater then losing a good chunk of the profits from the heat and utilizing the readings from Jared's book I have not made a single deposit. I've garnered the discipline needed to move down if i go on tilt/downswing. This I am very proud of.
Anyways,
I've been watching a few of the NLHE and some PLO videos here on RIO and they're awesome but I really want a coaching experience as I feel this will be much better as the 1on1 coaching will really get the tips implemented in my brain.
So, I was hoping if any experienced and talented HUNL or 6max NLHE cash game pro can offer me his coaching service and whatever money I do make I can use that to pay for the fees or we treat it as a Staking contract and do an 80/20 or even a 90/10 deal (me getting the low end obviously. I'm sure its obvious just want to make it clear lol) and maybe once we make progress the coach can be forgiving and we can adjust that deal.
I'm basically begging for this opportunity.
I'm broke, have no job, and still live with my parents. Its that bad :( I really want to succeed in this and my motivation to do so is more than anyone else. I'm sure many want the same; they want to be a one of those "rich high rollers" but not me. I just want to be able to make a career out of this and be able to actually afford even a halfway decently running car (it can even be a 2006 Toyota, so long as it runs lol), and have my own apartment (Even a single studio would be awesome!) and be able to pay for its bills 3-6 months in advance, and buy groceries with coupons! lol. BUT for my coaches sake, lets say hypothetically i do achieve this by sake making 1-2k/mo. I wont say, okay coach we're done, i can finally make 2k a month. I'm good for life, I don't need you anymore. NO. I want my to keep improving. I want to be able to tell you, Coach I made 4k this month and then maybe 2-4 months later say, Coach lets take a shot at X/X! I want us to try and make X,xxx steady month after month. I want to continually (yet gradually) keep getting better and make us both money.
But seeing as how I have no job and do not pay rent, I can pretty much dedicate ALL my time to this. From dusk to dawn! I think that is something a coach/staker would really appreciate, at least I would think so!
To add just another reason to try and convince why this is so different from the others looking to get coached/staked. I would not mind moving out of the country to play on Pokerstars/FullTilt. I live in a boarder city in Texas, USA meaning Mexico is just 5 minutes away from my house! If we can get enough profit to get us to afford a studio apartment and 3 months of bills I can move to over there and really get on the grind!!
Details:
Site - Bovada (can do merge and ACR if needed since im sure PokerTracker and HEM are probably a must but since I am poor I would need to purchase them and it might take a week or so to do it)
Stakes:
HUNL - $0.02/0.05 - at this stake i feel I have a slight edge over the player pool and am +EV although barely since I do not have the full grasp of HUNL cash/SNG yet
6max NLHE - $0.5/$0.10 & $0.10/$0.25 (usually I play 2 tables of NL5 and 2 tables of NL25. This seems be a good mix for me during my grinding sessions)
HUSNGs and 6max SNGs (Turbo)
I was a breakeven player at the $1.50 Hyper Turbo HUSNGs. Occasionally I took shots the $3.50 and did well. (I know Merge has issues with payments lately (they are paying, just takes a while) So if the coach wants me to play on WPN (ACR/BCP), I will do that. I think their lowest HU Hyper levels are $2.40 though and then they have the normal $1.50 6 max hyper/turbo SNGs.
I've played a lot of SnGs and for HU, Hypers seem to be my bread and butter. I'm not too great at 6max Hypers though. If I play a 6/9 max SnG I feel much more comfortable playing turbos.
TLDR (Long version):
-Losing/soemtimes breakeven/sometimes winning (during the first 1-2 hours of play, and when im playing my A game) player looking for a coach/Stakee to help him improve his game
-Preferred games looking to improve on 6max NLHE Cash & HUNL(cash or SNGs) Mostly 6 max cash games though. But I do well at low stakes HUNL Cash and I am breakeven at HUSNG Hypers. But if the coach wants me to just focus on 6 max NLHE that is fine.
-My Motivation in making sure we both make this a profitable venture is the fact that I am basically broke (except for my BR on my site) have no job and I'm still living with my parents. So to be able to afford even a halfway decent car, a cheap single studio and pay the bills for it 3-6 months in advance is what is driving me to succeed. I will also not stop if i do achieve this level. I want us both to keep making money by getting better each and very month and moving up in a well planned manner.
-Willing to move to mexico (I live in a boarder city in Texas; meaning my house is literally 5 minutes away from Mexico. So if we make enough maybe we can afford a grinding studio apt in the Mexican city close to my USA city and really get on the pokerstars/FullTilt grind!)
-Since I am poor I was hoping to pay you each month from the earnings I make from your coaching. We can do it as a contract so it will be worth your time. Like a 6-12 month contract and I am willing to do an 80/20 or even 90/10 deal so it is worth your time.
TLDR (short version)
-Losing/slight breakeven/sometimes winning player (during the first 2 hours or when im on my A game) player looking for a coach/stakee to help improve his preferred games of 6max NLHE cash & HUNL cash/HUSNGs. Mostly 6 max NLHE though.
-very motivated since I am broke (except for my br on my poker site) still living at home, and jobless ..meaning i can dedicated basically every day to this venture!!
-Since im poor, I will pay with my winnings. Im sure this gets asked a lot but whats different about this proposal is that we can do it as like a 6-12m contract so it will be worth the coaches time. And Im willing to do an 80/20 or even 90/10 deal so its really worth it. I just want to get better so much. I want to make this a career!
