Common questions
I'm a complete beginner — is this for me?
Absolutely. We start from first principles — what hands play well, why position matters, how to think about pots — and build from there. No jargon firehose, no judgement.
Cash games or tournaments?
Both. The fundamentals overlap more than people think, and Fred coaches each format on its own terms — the maths is the same, the pressure is not.
How do sessions work?
One-on-one over video with hand history reviews, drills tailored to where you actually leak chips, and a follow-up summary you can study between sessions.
Can I join the community without booking coaching?
Yes — the newsletter is free, friendly, and full of bite-sized strategy. Sign up below and you're in.
