It's just amazing to me that peole have such a profound respect for Tommy on this site and they take it so personally when anyone questions his poker ability. Frankly, I have a lot of respect for BK because he is one of the most financially successful posters on 2+2. For me that is it. I would consider paying BK $5,000 (actually would probably do it) , but wouldn't even consider giving a guy that makes less $$ than i do playing poker $$ for my time..

You make a lot of money playing poker. Good for you. You are a big douchebag though.

Wow, they really do. I don't think I would ever pay for coaching from someone with a lower winrate than me either. Although I am definately interested in getting down the nuances of live play, I would rather just befriend a high limit live pro and share things back and forth. Poker isn't like gymnastics where there's a phsyical component as well. You really can't teach past your ability. I can't give advice on 300/600, so I wouldn't expect anyone to hire me as a coach. I'm sure this gig is more for the 20/40 live pro who wants to beat 50/100.
