In the end you play against yourself. Beyond layers of mathy strategy, poker is an inside job. Across countless hands and hard spots, ideally you master how to quiet the mind, find your optimal rhythm, and nurture a consistent A-game.
We can work together in one of three ways:
One: Targeted mindset training
Based on years of study with mindset legend Tommy Angelo, I take inspiration from Buddhist principles which can deliver less pain and more focus. Beyond "stay calm and do the best you can," actionable mental-game strategies are not just for elite players. Should you want to move beyond casual play, we can fine tune how you strengthened awareness in areas that include:
- Detachment and patience
- Session length and quitting
- Bankroll and VPIP
- Tilt and table talk
- ROI and downswings
- Mum poker and info wars
- Devices and paying close attention
Two: Executive prep
Vegas cash games are tougher than ever. I routinely see confident visitors with ample bankroll make predictable errors as they struggle against local pros. If you're a business person who loves the game, playing in your local card room or when you travel, I deliver actionable mental-game guardrails you can easily integrate to fix leaks and protect profit.
Three: Poker for business
Just like deal-making in the corporate world, every poker hand is a complex negotiation. Executives, business owners, and entrepreneurs don’t always think through a poker lens, yet the skill sets overlap in other vital ways—risk/reward, capital allocation, aggression, bluffing, tilt, decision-making, and more. To help business people use poker strategy to heighten performance, I facilitate group Zoom networking calls where participants tell their stories, describe challenges, and share insights.
Custom approach
Like snowflakes, no two players are the same. I investigate and respond to a client's unique pain points. I've studied the game daily for over a decade and can suggest materials including books, videos, articles, podcasts, and streams. As a start, you might explore "Zen and the Art of Poker," a masterwork in advanced mental-game training.
Fees
Sessions are one hour and can be in person, on the phone, or via Zoom (recorded on request). I charge a competitive $100 hourly rate for individual training as plug-and-play, meaning no contracts. As a bonus, if you're in Vegas, we can share a game. Group-training Zoom calls are complimentary.
Credentials
I teach live-cash strategies for live NLHE. Privately and in major Strip casinos, I’ve played 1/2, 1/3, 2/5, and 5/5/25 games. I also play online. I remain a passionate advocate especially for women curious about poker, and invite you to explore my journey under "Cards."
Let's connect
If you have questions, please shoot me an email. First consults are complimentary, and I will provide a payment link if you have interest. I look forward to meeting you and sharing ideas about your poker ambitions!
