1-1 Coaching · 6 Month Program · 50–200NL

You’re not stuck because
you’re not working
hard enough.

Most players at 50–200NL are putting in the hours. Studying, reviewing hands, grinding volume. And still not moving. The problem usually isn’t effort. It’s that what’s holding you back is counterintuitive — and nobody’s told you what it actually is.

See if this is for you ↓

If this sounds familiar

Your redline is tanking and when you’ve tried being more aggressive you made your game much worse

You have access to a solver but don’t know how to get the best out of it

You know you have C-game leaks but you don’t know where they’re coming from

You feel stuck at your current stake and don’t have a pathway for improvement

You’re not missing talent. You’re missing the right diagnosis.

Who I am

I’m pkrELMO. I’ve played professionally for over 6 years and currently play 500NL–1KNL online. I’ve made every mistake that you can see above and only truly progressed up the stakes when I fixed them. I work with a small number of students at a time because the work is specific, and specificity is what makes it stick.

What we do together

Six months, structured deliberately. Not hand reviews for the sake of it. Each phase builds on the last.

Month 1–2

Diagnosis

We find what’s actually costing you — not what you think is costing you. These are usually different things.

Month 3–4

Rebuild

Specific spots, specific streets, specific mental patterns. You’re not learning new theory — you’re fixing broken thinking.

Month 5–6

Integrate

Most students’ biggest breakthroughs happen here. The work compounds. You start understanding why you’re playing better.

Who this is for

For you if —

Playing 50–200NL online seriously

Felt “stuck” after playing lots of volume at your current stake

Committed to 6 months of genuine work

Ready to have your assumptions challenged

Not for you if —

You’re playing below 50NL

You’re looking for shortcuts or quick fixes

Your ego stops you from taking on new and uncomfortable information

You’re unwilling to invest seriously in your game

What students say

“Went into Simon’s coaching mainly because I knew my redline was falling and that I simply needed to become more aggressive. My thinking at the time was basically: ‘ok, he’ll show me a few spots, explain some range stuff, I’ll find more aggression and then just move up the stakes.’ What I actually found was a new world of poker. Before the coaching I thought I understood the game pretty well, but with every session I realized I’m basically still at the big bang stage of understanding poker. Every coaching had at least one huge aha moment that completely changed how I look at spots and opened up new possibilities I didn’t even know existed before.”

“As someone who is very self driven and consumes all the content I can get my hands on, Simon’s coaching has been easily the most important investment I have made in my game. The 1:1s have helped me organize everything into a coherent framework and given me insights that I couldn’t have found on my own. The group discord has been a constant stream of learning and support, including in-depth hand reviews and play-and-explains. The group sessions have provided deep dives into various critical spots, as well as data review and discussions of high level concepts. Simon is extremely knowledgeable and kind, and always goes out of his way to answer our questions. The value for the money is a no-brainer and I’d fully recommend him to any player — experienced or beginner, online or live — looking to meaningfully improve their game.”
