How players buy $10k seats for $300
A four-part masterclass on building a live tournament schedule almost entirely out of satellites and mega-satellites.
A two-session programme for your first big buy-in
Two live coaching sessions built around your first $1,000+ live tournament: preparation, in-event support and a review.
The document that decides how you should play
Most players never read the structure sheet. This masterclass shows what it tells you before a card is dealt.
Monthly review for regulars
A monthly coaching review for mid-stakes live regulars: schedule, results, leaks and travel cost against ROI.
When a late entry is correct, and when it is lazy
A breakdown of late registration equity: field size, average stack, and the level after which entering is a mistake.
Short, medium and big stack plans
Three separate plans for the money bubble, because the correct play depends entirely on which of three stacks you hold.
What actually repeats, and what is noise
A short list of live tells that hold up over volume, and a longer list of the ones that do not.
Buy-in caps, downswing depth and travel costs
Bankroll guidance built for live tournaments, where variance is deep, fields are large and travel is a real cost line.

A short reset you can run on a tournament break
A ten-minute guided meditation built for the 20-minute break — reset attention, drop the last hand, return clean.
The four-count pattern, taught properly
Learn box breathing in five minutes and use it in the 30 seconds after a bad beat, before you act again.
For the night after a deep run
