Faraz Jaka, a longtime poker pro and founder of JAKAcoaching, is running a monthly strategy series called Pros in the Hot Seat. Jaka steps out of his usual coaching role and invites other experts to review hands from his own play.
Each month, Jaka works with a different expert on hands from high-stakes tournaments or from his online game. Members of JAKAcoaching can watch Jaka explain his thinking and see the coaches challenge his reasoning. The sessions are interactive, with quizzes, questions, and live discussion. Each one is recorded and added to the JAKAcoaching library.
The report names several featured sessions: - Faraz Jaka's Tough Spots from WSOP 2026, with Thomas Boivin reviewing difficult decisions Jaka faced against strong competition. - A session with four-time World Series of Poker bracelet winner Michael Gathy, who reviews Jaka's online tournament hands. - Heads-Up Strategy with Kevin Rabichow, focused on adjustments needed when battling for a tournament title. - Scott Baumstein, who reviews Jaka's low- and mid-stakes tournament hands from Hard Rock events.
