Gambler before age 21 was a painfully shy introvert with terrible social skills, who got called ugly by girls and had low self-esteem. He stayed awake at night and wondered if he'd ever be able to find a girlfriend. He has spent the past 5 years working on every aspect of his character, including skills with women. People from his youth no longer recognise him and people that meet him can't believe he wasn't always a natural - both socially and with women.
Any success or ability that he possesses, he has had to work for. Because he has gone from zero to hero, he knows the steps necessary and this is what makes his teaching so effective.
The nickname: At 18 years old, Gambler took his life savings of £2000 and put them to work in the stock market. Over the next 6 years, he earned his nickname The God of Gamblers – from the Hong Kong film character who never loses a gamble. The nickname was later shortened to Gambler. Now, he lives in Leicester Sq. London and his full-time job is teaching guys how to get success with women.
Gambler is versed in all methods of pickup and he never does two "sets" the same way. He has trained with some of the world's best PUAs and now has his own style that is uniquely his.
He will normally approach a girl very directly, escalate quickly, and create an intense connection. When he is on form, he projects an energy that women find irresistible.
Over the years, Gambler has used the Pickup Knowledge of other MPUAs, and combined them with his own skills to grant himself a vast array of powers.
As a trainer, he is able to analyze a person's strengths and deliver training that fits your character, morals, and natural talents. Ideally he’d like to make you into a natural, and will give you the skills you need to get there.
Gambler is an NLP Master Practitioner, an expert in many areas including Psychology, Linguistics, Acting, Hypnosis, Fashion, Success, Motivation, and has qualifications in teaching and training. He draws on this wide knowledge base in his teaching.
Gambler is a trainer on our Bootcamps and is available for 1on1s.
