The free live workshop where I show you how to handle the 4 hardest parts of poker, find the one mindset leak costing you the most winrate, and train it out the way an athlete trains. Even if you've read the mental game books and nothing stuck.
You know the spots. You've done the solver work. Then you review the session and see a player making decisions you would never make in the lab: autopiloting, folding too tight after a cooler, getting stubborn in a marginal spot, playing two hours longer than you should. "I know what I should do. I just don't always do it at the table." That gap between your A-game and your average game is not a strategy problem, and more study won't close it.
Why "I just need to control my emotions" makes tilt worse. Emotion you clamp down on comes back at the worst possible moment. The loss is never the real problem. The problem is the story your mind attaches to it. I'll show you the three-step tool for feeling the frustration without letting it play your next hand.
Why the downswing costs you more than the variance does. You start folding spots you'd normally take, or chasing to win it back, and your A-game disappears just when you need it. I'll show you how resilience is built in advance, like a savings account, and why it's too late to start once you're in the storm.
Why "being hard on myself keeps me sharp" is the belief that turns one punt into three. I'll show you how to sort every mistake into strategic or execution in under a minute, take the lesson, and be fully back for the next hand.
Why more study won't move you up when the ceiling is a belief and not a skill gap. You play like the player you believe you are. I'll give you the one question that finds the belief keeping you at your current stake, and show you how to build your 2.0 identity in its place.
Then you score yourself on all four, live. You play at the level of your lowest score, and most players guess theirs wrong.
Not theory. Not another book for the shelf. You do the work live and you leave with your own numbers.
Four numbers, scored live: losing, downswings, mistakes and the need to improve. You play at the level of your lowest number, and most players guess theirs wrong.
One tool for each challenge, built for the table and not the classroom. What to do in the moment after the cooler, in week three of a downswing, and in the minute after the punt. Usable in your next session.
Not ten things to fix. The one leak costing you the most winrate, and the order to train the rest in. Fix the constraint first and the other numbers move with it.
Each challenge has one skill that answers it. I teach the skill, give you the tool, and you score yourself from 1 to 10. Four scores in, the lowest one is where your winrate is going. That is the leak we name before you leave.
"You will learn things about yourself that you wouldn't learn anywhere else."
Alan Finn Jr$1kNL"It's not just information. You're forced to dig into who you are, and actually do something about it."
Tom Jeffery$1k/$2k NL"Even if you master just one of the eight topics, it's worth it."
Einars Muhajevs$2k PLO"My emotional regulation and awareness have improved massively."
"I finally put a finger on the things that were holding me back for so long."
"The skills come together like a jigsaw to create a complete package."

Founder, The Poker Athlete
For years I've been obsessed with one question: how do you turn a struggling poker player into a high performer? Having been a professional poker player myself for 6 years and working with 1000+ players over the last decade, I know the unique challenges players face.
I can confidently say what separates the best players from the rest is a set of skills that anyone can learn. On 29 September I'll take you through the four mindset skills, live, and you'll leave knowing exactly where your own game is leaking.
Seventy-five minutes. Your real scores. A mindset that holds when the cards don't. This is the workshop I wish someone had run for me when I was grinding.
