Teaching poker

I believe that I can turn any player into a solid winner (more than 1k a week) after one week of tutoring. Does anyone believe that this possible? Or am I insane, foolish, naive, etc?

You are insane, foolish, and naive.

Well, there's just one condition then I would agree with you. They have to want to learn.

not insane, just foolish and naive

Well, I shall attempt it in the near future. I'll let you know if you're right... [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]

Thinkings you can produce results like that in a week is insane. It takes most players months to learn the game enough that they can even break even.

It might be possible with "a" player, but not "any" player.

Are you one of those players?

I agree. The player must possess average intelligence - at the very least, IMO.

Intelligence aside, some people don't have the psychological makeup to play winning poker. That is very difficult to change, though not impossible, but not possible in a week IMHO.
