Coaching
Over the past few years, I’ve dedicated my career to mastering one game — 6-Card Pot-Limit Omaha.
I first made the switch from Spin & Gos to PLO6 in 2022. From day one, my focus was on building a deep, theoretical understanding of the game rather than relying on surface-level intuition. I worked closely with Corey Mikesell to establish a strong foundation and have since spent thousands of hours studying, playing, and refining my approach.
Today, I regularly play between $2/$5 and $10/$20 on GG Poker, and occasionally higher in private app games.

Along the way, I noticed that PLO6 players lacked the kind of tools and structure that exist in other formats — so we built one: the Grinders Vault PLO6 Calculator. It’s designed to handle the true complexity of 6-card Omaha and give players the clarity they need to study effectively.
In addition to developing the calculator, I also work directly with players who want to improve their results. We help players who want personal support, structure, and a clear path toward reaching their goals.
It’s a small, selective program where we work closely on your individual game — identifying the key areas that will have the biggest impact on your results.
Right now, I’m working with two players:
- One started at $0.50/$1 and now plays $2/$5 on GG Poker with one of the top win rates at that stake.

- Another climbed from $0.50/$1 to $25/$50 in just six months, playing mostly heads-up on app games.

These kinds of jumps require focus, discipline, and the right guidance — and that’s exactly what this program provides.
If you’re serious about improving your game, I’d love to hear from you.
You can answer a short questionnaire to tell us about:
- Your current limits
- Your goals as a player
- The type of support that would help you most
