Default 5/10 SH coach needed

A bit of playing history on myself...

Started playing online March '04
Started playing professionally March '05
March-July - 12 tables of 3/6FH Dabbled in 3/6 and 5/10 shorthand during July.
August-November - 5/10 shorthanded exclusively.

I've put in over 100k hands of 5/10 and am somewhere around 0.3BB/100. Whats more than that, over the last 70k hands i have zero table profit to show for it. Luckily r*keback+prop pay have been good.

Anyway, I've been feeling like im in a hole and just cant get out. Any coaches who think they could get me out of this rut - please PM me with your pricing and any other information you think I should know.

Oh...and for good measure...Here is a graph of my barren wasteland of 5/10 play.

Bump

Btw - if anybody else was in this situation and was coached and got out of the rut, please leave me the name of your coach.

Your graph points to breakeven play. Why don't you learn how to beat 1/2 SH and 3/6 SH before jumping into the 5/10? Cheaper, more forgiving, and less pressure to 'succeed'. I don't think 5/10 SH is the logical next step in your climb up the limits.

Because breakeven play = upwards of 75$ an hour as a prop, and I've got a business to fund.

*edit*
And on top of that, before I know I'm beating 1/2 or 3/6, I'll have to play 50k hands of each. Even as much as I play (alot) that'd take a month each limit.

I have a 20k hand sample of 3/6 where I am winning at 4BB/100... if that matters for anything.

If this was at party and your name there at 5/10 was anything like your 2+2 name (the DCW part being what jumps out) then I played a great deal of hands with you and my basic feeling was that you are a bonified rock and I didn't hate having you at my tables because you are easy to play against and played too weak/tight.

It felt like you were playing a solid full ring game at a 6-max table.

My stats on you were something like 17/12/1.4 over 500+ hands (if you and this DCW are the same person).

Sample size i guess...

Back when i played the party skins my vpip was around 20-21 and pfr around 16-17

I'm much much more aggressive now... My current stats are 28/21, but average players is only 4.2 or so since i'm propping.

*edit*
Aggression at... 2.8 2.0 1.5 or something close to that

Joe Tall.

I have a fair number of hands against somebody with a similar name, and have a similar asssessment as the other poster. Your discipline is good, but it may be too easy to knock you off a hand.
