Poker Coaches face unique challenges: GTO solver subscription is $250+/mo before any client pays. Hand-history privacy — some clients won't share past hands. Per-stake pricing — $25/hr microstakes vs $300/hr high-stakes. "Live results" volatility — clients lose, blame the coach. Time-zone span — US + Europe + Asia students all want evenings. On top of all that, HoneyBook charges $36/month ($432/year) — money that comes directly from your revenue. The median poker coach earns $42,000/year. Software at $432/year is a meaningful percentage of that income, every year, forever. And you do not own anything.

At 10 I'm on a video call with a $200NL student in Europe doing hand history review, going street by street through the hands he flagged from last week, his preflop sizing from the button and a river bluff-catch where he folded too often. At 11:30 I take one of those spots into the solver and walk him through the equilibrium strategy, the range morphology on a wet board, and why a small check-raise frequency matters more than the hand he held. At 1 I prep for a $500NL client on the East Coast, pulling his database stats and marking leaks in 3-bet pots out of position. At 2 we do the session, ninety minutes, half theory and half a sweat session with me watching him play live tables and asking him to say his reasoning before each decision. At 4 I write up a theory document on turn barreling for my students, with sample hands and a simplified strategy they can use at the table. At 6 I have a short session with a tournament student in Asia on ICM spots near the bubble and push-fold ranges at fifteen big blinds. Two clients won't share their full histories, so I work from the hands they choose and say plainly what that limits. At 9 I log what each student worked on, note the next session topic for the $200NL package, answer a student who wants to talk about a downswing, and chase the invoice I sent on Tuesday.
