"I also think that you would be better served finding a friend, an eqaul with whom to talk about poker."

I agree. I could never pay for lessons considering I can get free advice at will from legendary limit holdem expert Jesse Martin. . . .

Seriously, you're both reasonable and smart. You should be able to work out a push if it's obvious it's a waste of both parties time.

I think any time with Tommy is probably well spent no matter how your game is right now!

ive learned more poker skillz from tommy than anyone. he changed me from tilted spazzy small winner to still spazzy but relatively way more stable and solid decent winner. (second best teacher has been gabe. third and very fundamental of course mason/sklansky.)

hopefully that will count as a recommendation, and not serve to scare you away.

Who makes more $$ playing poker? You I'm sure. You don't take business advice from people who are less successful than yourself.. common sense... You should charge him if you had a trade...

Yeah but Tommy makes way more than BK does in a live setting, which would be a big reason for him to take lessons.

unless you plan on trying to win a significant portion of your income from NL i say no. I learned a lot of what i know about poker from tommy. But that was 4 years or so. If i were in your shoes i would ask myself this question. Have I agreed with and or learned from anything tommy has written on these boards in the last year. For me the answer is no. Since we are similar in ability and the games we play i can only imagine that your limit holdem game would also not be improved by his help. if you were tilty and spazzy like mike l. i believe it could help. and while alost all players have problems with tilt i'm sure you are like me in that you don't, having developed good mechanisms for dealing with it.
