With the elimination of Amanda Musumeci, Erika Moutinho is officially the last woman standing and is currently playing on the feature table. Interestingly, Moutinho is the girlfriend of poker pro David "Doc" Sands, who just so happens to alive and well in this very tournament.

What's more, Sands' table recently broke and he has been moved to the feature table. This has set up a little lovebird rivalry that'll no doubt have some serious bragging rights on the line.

After giving it significant consideration for the past few months, I have decided to take on a limited number of students for private coaching. While I have immensely enjoyed some time away from poker, I realized that I do miss being involved with the game of poker in some capacity. So I have decided to dedicate 2 days a week to coaching poker.

I have also decided to drop my coaching rates to a level that is more affordable for the small and mid stakes players looking to take their game to the next level. In the past I have charged anywhere from $750-$1,000 an hour. But now that I am not playing online right now due to Black Friday, I no longer have a huge opportunity cost associated with me coaching. As a result, I will offer my coaching services at the following rates:

No Limit Holdem Cash Games Coaching Rates:

One-on-one coaching Hourly rate: $300

Group Coaching (parties of 5 or less) hourly rate: $500

Day Fee: $2,000. My day fee includes 8 hours of one-on-one poker coaching (4 hours of coaching, then a 1 hour break, followed by 4 more hours of coaching).

Packages: 1. One-on-one packages of 10 hours - $2,750
2. Group coaching packages (parties of 5 or less) of 10 hours - $4,500

Create your own coaching package: If you have any ideas on how I can assist you in a way not already mentioned, don't hesitate to write me. In the past I have given live coaching seminars, speaking engagements and even instructed folks who have purchased golf/poker packages because they were looking to get better at both golf and poker. However, please do not contact me about any revenue sharing based coaching as I will not give those types of arrangements any consideration.
