Want to be a BrainLab Challenger?

If you want to participate in the BrainLab Challenge, consider the following points:

• I am not a poker professional, I am not beating zillion and trillion high stakes, but I also find this completely irrelevant, since you will have an idea of my streams, whether I am good and improving or not. However, I have a professional background of 10+ years of experience in management, business analytics and consulting (SAP, process management, lean six sigma if you are interested what exactly), this helps me to model and solve problems in very logical ways. Also, my approach will get you to a point in your life, where you will be able to decide your future poker career by yourself. I am not someone that will babysit you for years and then try to make you my profit horse. Believe it or not, I am just trying to help people get better at the beginning.

• There is no cost in starting a challenge, you will also receive free consulting and training from time to time. For the question why would this be good for me? is a simple answer: I am trying to grow a community and help people. I will invest time, and if you come across the barriers set by poker, I am also sure we can work together in other topics if they emerge, like helping me grow this community. I am not seeking financial income here, I believe if we do something good, it will eventually come to us anyway. Only thing I hate is when somebody is wasting my time though (like you promise everything, do nothing).

• You must be mature enough to accept constructive criticism. If I tell you, you are not ready for something, or should revise something, I do this for your help, not for other reasons.

• You must learn to admit failures and flaws and must provide a transparent run, for everyone.

• Prepare yourself for a long-term professional approach to poker. I am not interested in people, who think they can become professionals by winning an MTT. I believe in smart work, discipline, and continuous improvement. This will also help you in various other areas in your life.

• Forget about paying for content at the beginning for any stupid site, it is just not needed. Follow the steps I will provide you, in a couple of months you will understand poker basics and see, how many people are selling shit and free information for money.

• I only train Cash 6-max now. This might expand in the future, but if you are an MTT player, this challenge is not for you.

• You can only start this challenge once and give it a restart once. There is no 3rd possibility.

If you feel yourself still a good candidate, here are your steps:

1. You need to join our Discord Community. For the link, please whisper me on Twitch (since it can change from time to time on the webpage).

2. Contact me in a private message, saying you would like to participate.

3. You must answer the Starting Questions Excel file. This will help me get a grip of your initial status with poker and your vision (Be ready to accept my opinion also).

4. After filling out the Excel file, we will plan a discussion between us, should last 1 hour. In this 1 hour we will set the goals you want to achieve for the long run.

5. After that, you will have a week of grind, without any help. After that we will revise your file. We will correct any flaws, and revise if the progression is monitored well. If you still feel like doing the challenge, you will get status of Novice (visible on Discord).

6. After 1 month of progress, we will have a talk, about your study routines, progression, we can revise all your hands in a bigger coaching session, where you can reach the next level. If I see your commitment is good enough, you get to be an Apprentice (visible on Discord).

7. Now, you will get an own channel on Discord, which is dedicated to you only. Here you can update your status of the challenge and share everything you experience. I will be in contact with how to set this up.

8. Once you reach NL5, you can get the title of Adept (visible on Discord). Here you should be writing a longer article on your feelings, how and what did you or you did not learn from the challenge so far. We will also have another session, where we will discuss how to improve, what to focus on. We will consider, if you need an investment into anything that would help you (Something like GTO Wizard or PIO Solver).

9. There will be more ranks coming up, but now, this is irrelevant. We will update this post whenever needed.

For you to improve, I will provide you with training material from time to time, mostly in source of videos and personal consultation, all free of course. I want to make a continuously growing video library throughout the challenge, that will help you beat NL2 and later also higher stakes.

I will still refer to many other videos, books, e-books, streams, podcasts, etc. where you can learn, maybe there is something which you need to pay for. Once again, it is none of my interest to make you buy anything and I really want to keep it free.
