Every day, the actions we perform condition our mind and body to perform in a particular way. Actions become habits and habits become our day-to-day reality.

 

BUT the brain is a muscle and can be reprogrammed. You just need the right strategy, FOR YOU.

​

Together, we'll realign and recenter, assess and future plan, remove blocks and barriers, and teach you how to tap in to the Limitless Version of Yourself anytime, anywhere.

 

Mike Maddocks is a certified NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming) and Intuitive Coach. He works with clients to help them discover their passions, reconnect with their core, conquer their goals, and step into their true self.

Every player has a tell. What to look for and how to interpret them.

DR JANET WYVILL

#1 Female Australian Player of Year 2022
Owner and CEO JDub Poker
$100,000+ live earnings in 2021/2022

Janet is a trained and registered teacher with 30+ years of teaching experience. Janet has been playing poker casually for over 20 years.  Poker became a series option in 2021 and Janet started studying and learning from coaches to go onto some great success in both local and international tournaments and regularly plays cash games. 

​

JDub Poker was formed in 2021 when Janet was looking for live poker coaching in Australia and discovered that there was no coaching scene available.  Hence she opened the company and started with classes, master classes and bootcamps so she could attend and get coaching herself.

​

This lead to a significant increase in success including winning the MGM Grand Ladies event in Las Vegas in 2022 as well as cashing in two WSOP events and the MGM Tournament of Champions.

​

Teaching people who have never played before the “Learn to Play” classes is a passion for Janet, and you will discover the easy and exciting way to learn poker.  She is a patient and fun teacher who will give you the confidence to play in any game.
