Finding a great mentor is invaluable. As I pursue my poker goal of competing in the WSOP, I wanted to find a poker mentor to learn from.

Unfortunately, private lessons with a well-known poker mentor can be ridiculously pricey… often upwards of $100 to $150 an hour. Fortunately, there are ways to achieve substantial learning without spending substantial money. Here is how I learn from poker pros Jonathan Little and Daniel Negreanu.

Poker Mentor: Jonathan Little

One of my good friends, Tave, who was the one pushing me to play with him in the 2017 WSOP, had recommended I read Jonathan Little’s poker book: Secrets of Professional Tournament Poker to prepare.

I’ve met many skilled amateur poker players who have read these books. Furthermore, quite a few of them view the series as a fantastic resource.

This book is quite up to date with the current dynamics of tournament poker. Other poker books I’ve read sometimes give advice that has become outdated due to changes in the poker scene.

However, in this series, JLittle gives advice that is a bit more timeless, helping you establish the foundation and thinking of a great poker player. I’ve since finished reading this series, but every now and then I like to re-read specific sections to review.

Daniel Negreanu is probably my favorite poker player. He has a great presence on the poker table. He’s Canadian (like me). But what I find most impressive is his ability to read poker hands.

Watch one of my favorite poker videos to see what I mean.

I don’t think Daniel Negreanu provides private coaching. (KidPoker, if you happen to be reading this and are open to coaching someone new, send me a message!) However, you can learn plenty by watching videos of his live play on Youtube and backtracking to determine how he came up with his reads.

Watching videos of professional poker players is very helpful. Look to learn from their betting patterns and the lines they take. Furthermore analyze how they make their reads and ultimately make decisions to fold, call and raise.
