As a coach, Brent focuses on finding the areas that will produce the largest immediate improvement in a student’s win rate and ROI. His coaching approach combines:
- PokerTracker/Holdem Manager database analysis
- Preflop and postflop strategy
- Tournament strategy and study plans
- Hand-history review
- ICM and final-table play
- Population tendencies
- Exploitative adjustments
- Game selection
- Modern theory without trying to turn students into “solver robots
- Personalized study plans
Brent believes the best coaching is practical: understand what a player is doing now, identify the leaks costing them the most EV, and build a clear study plan around the games they actually play.

I’ve been working with Brent for a short period of time but in that time, I’ve seen some of my best results online. Brent brings a little bit of everything - he brings exploitive strategy, but still has the frame work of GTO with good solver and database knowledge.

Working with Brent took my game to a new level. From my HUD stats and notes alone, he was immediately able to identify key leaks in my play and explain concepts I had been missing for years. His approach strikes a great balance between GTO fundamentals and exploitative play, but what really separates Brent is his ability to coach.
He never made me feel inferior and always treated me with respect, patience, and understanding—while still holding me accountable when I kept making the same mistakes. Sessions with him were something I looked forward to, not a chore.
Don’t just take my word for it. Check out my SharkScope graph (MGTOW715 on ACR), which I reset shortly after we started working together. I’ll let you guess where on the graph I decided I’d learned it all and stopped working with Brent.
Brent has the technical knowledge, professionalism, and teaching ability to turn you into the type of player I’d dread seeing across the table.

I’ve really enjoyed working with Brent. We did 3 sessions focused on tournament strategy including preflop ranges, theory, database review, and solver work. He was friendly, professional, and flexible, and I felt like he did a great job helping me transition from cash games into tournament poker. I’d definitely recommend him to anyone looking to improve their game.
