What type of HH would be best to use for coaching?

Hi!I am wondering if i should choose to buy a HH, what type of sample should i look for?Have a few tournies in HEM to choose from.I also wonder how accurate the the coaching information is, price wise etc. (since i am a low stakes player with probably a couple of leaks)

I would look to find one with a lot of action in it. A lot of situations where you are presented with a decision, that's usually best for getting the most value out of a review.Don't get sidetracked by "sexy" spots, look for common situations you're not entirely sure on, adjustments (especially against aggros) that you're not 100% positive about, things that you can really apply quickly and often to your game once you get valuable feedback and clarity from a coach.As far as coaching and price for a low stakes player, I would recommend starting slow. A single HH review from a coach, (or multiple coaches if you like a few), then just taking it like that for awhile. A pattern of "HH review, grind for a week or two, HH review, grind for a week or two" can be very effective, in both cost and value.The students that have the most success are the ones that play the most focused games, not the ones that buy the most coaching (though it's not rare for the hardest working players to both play a lot and receive a good bit of coaching). Bulk packages can be fine, but I'd recommend doing that once you know you have the right coach fit for you, and you also know that you're going to put forth a solid effort into becoming a better player.
