I'd play Scout, nit it up and let him butt rape me for 100bb/hour taking my time to play my hands and pocket the 46k left. Then quit poker. Problem solved.

So you think every single person in the world would benefit more from coaching in poker than what is essentially free money?

But hey, at least I know from reading your first line that you're not serious in writing something so silly or else you'd be making yourself cringe; which would make no sense quite frankly.

agree with raszi
if you are good enough to think that you'll walk over scout hu then the 100 hours has to be way more valuable =

It's free money?

Everyone not taking coaching is either an idiot or not thinking this through...unless one is already accomplished at poker and never plans on playing it again...ever

What if you already played poker and realized you are not that good and since then you have a good carreer and just play a bit of poker aside but just for fun ?
Why would you take those 100 hours from which you would obvisouly benefit but not that much ?

I chose playing scout, because I never played those stakes, I don't want to get "very far" at this game. I don't know his level, but even if he is a bit better than I am, I still have a good chance. For the thrill of those stakes.

Obvisouly for the majority of lpers, this is a "no brainer", especially if you play midstakes+ but not for everyone.

i've never played with scout, but based on the replies from those who have it seems like some (including myself) were confused about the actual level of his play.

for example, i remember watching him play one time when i was thinking about taking a (very under-rolled) shot at a 5/10 full ring table where he open-limped Q9o, someone iso-raised, the button 3-bet the iso, scout flatted the 3-bet oop and open-shoved some flop where he hit a pair (i forget the exact flop, maybe J95r or something). button called with KK. i remember other hands that were similarly bad but that one stuck out for some reason. i don't remember how long ago it was, but at least 1year+.

obviously based on the comments from people who've played him, scout has improved a lot from those days. or maybe i just happened to watch him on an unusually fishy day, or he was just feeling bored because it was 5/10 or whatever.

for someone like me, i mean who knows what i'll feel like in the future, but i'd be surprised if i play more than 20k hands of poker from now til the end of 2012 and i don't really expect to get back into it. if scout is actually capable of beating, or even being only a slight loser at 100nl these days i would still take the coaching just because it would be cool to learn from the best of the best, even though it's questionable whether the EV of what i learn would get a chance to materialize. but if he was routinely making plays such as in the hand i mentioned above, i think just it becomes a no-brainer money-grab sort of spot for someone in my position.

i guess the only caveat to that is that if i got 100 hours of coaching from one of those guys i'd probably have to reconsider the amount of poker i planned to play :o

unless your a micro /recreational player with $1000 or less bankroll who may never realize the EV of the coaching

yes, but i doubt a micro player would have a huge edge over scout in hu, cause if he did, he could just bumhunt heads up nlhe and get out of micros.

You guys are trolling wrong. If you're trying to look badass u go:

"LOL, a free 50-80k in 4 hours time or waste 100 hours of my life w/ the so-called top 20? How is this even a question?"

could always take the 80k and buy 100000 hours of coaching

or you could run like shit and lose to scout lol
