I have found a bunch of poker guys offering tutoring services on a bunch of websites including youtube, 2+2. has anyone tried getting lessons before? are they return on investment?

Yep. I am a disciple of Jennifear. She is not currently active as she lives in the USA. Best thing I ever did for my poker game. This was for SNGs and later MTTs, not ring games.

Of course, I was very lucky to forge a strong personal friendship in the deal so I'm going to be quite biased. However, even before that came to be I was shown a lot of things I didn't even realized existed in this game. Just about everything I talk about in regards to poker comes from what I learned from Jen, either directly or by associated ideas.

Now, you need to see how much these guys are charging and try to get a feel for how much time they are willing to invest with followup questions and discussion. I literally sent Jen hundreds of emails with no problem. Other guys might not be so willing to do that for free. Also, consider their price compared to the limits you are playing. Some guys are going to base their rates on the games they would be taking time away from to play, which could be mid-to-high stake games. Make sure they are offering low-stakes help and price it accordingly.

I've never had a coach myself, but over the past few months I've spent many hours producing videos with Lou Krieger. These will be published on the site in a few months time. We've focused a lot on FLHE and Omaha/8, which are games I'm wasn't too experienced with. I know that I've learnt a huge amount from the time spent listening to Lou, particularly when we've played forum games other than NLHE.
