*An easier way to learn* Poker has evolved to have an overwhelming amount of material to study, which makes it a not-so-straight-forward task to learn in-depth poker theory, especially if you have a busy lifestyle. That's why tournament pro Faraz Jaka created Jaka Coaching, in which he simplifies heavy poker theory into digestible lessons that are easy to follow. The interactive, live lessons pose a unique opportunity for students to ask questions in real-time, interacting like you do in an actual classroom. *Weekly Live Lessons * Join our community to study poker at your own pace, with learning paths curated by Faraz Jaka, or study in a group setting with our weekly live coaching sessions. The lessons are extremely interactive (20-40) students show up to each, while many watch the recording available within 24hrs after each lesson). Faraz Jaka encourages you to ask questions and gets to know his students during these lessons. Faraz teaches 2-3 lessons per month and invites other top-tier guest coaches to host other couple lessons per month. *Formats & Learning Paths* There are three different lesson formats: > Specific Topic, where you will learn different poker theories with real-life scenarios and where to adapt solvers’ outputs. > Coaches or Students deep run hand history reviews > Watch, Ask & Learn live streams of coaches playing a 4-hour session with hole cards shown while you ask them questions in the chat. Recordings are placed into specific learning paths to know the optimal order to watch. Faraz recommends everyone start with the MTT Crash Course learning path. He will also email you some more recommendations after you sign up. *About Faraz Jaka* Faraz Jaka has been a professional poker player for over 18 years, playing all over the world and online. Once crowned WPT Player of the Year, Jaka has reached 6 WSOP final tables and has accumulated over $12 million in tournament winnings. --- ▷ Already a Member?
