024: Pandora’s Box
Nick Howard has been a professional poker coach. He became known for teaching practical simplifications of well-balanced play on RunItOnce.com as a coach. Nick is one of the most prominent coaches in the poker world for going on 10 years now. After experiencing extreme suffering and considering giving up the game forever, Nick surrendered to a larger purpose and made it his life’s mission to develop more simplified strategies than the GTO based ones so that other folks wouldn’t have to go through what he did. Nick Howard founded Poker Detox, an NLHE training company in May 2016. Poker Detox now functions as one of the most elite application-based staking companies in the industry, containing a crew of mind coaches and language-optimization experts that work to provide a full support system for students. The result is a powerful combination of training exercises that highlight the necessary concepts while empowering the learner to choose their path toward integration. Applications for new team members are accepted several times per year, and in 2018 Poker Detox became the first training organization to offer guaranteed salaries to its players. Today, Nick speaks about the real difference between high stakes crushers and the rest of the industry. Specifically, how a high stakes crusher thinks his way through a difficult spot in a hand. Key Takeaways What do you do when you don’t know what to do? What do you do in an uncharted territory? What is the real difference between the real crusher and the guy who chose to stay complacent? What is the shit that most people don’t want to face? What is the 3 years vision that Nick talks about?
