Performance psychology for poker

Your edge isn't only technical.

I'm Alan Longo. I work with professional poker players to close the gap between what they know and what they execute — and build a more consistent level of play.

Players I work with

"Alan has improved my performance on and off the table. The most valuable part is that he helps me plan each individual trip — morning, day and evening routines for the days I'm playing — so I stay focused and in a good mindset through these tiring stops, and perform at my best consistently. I'd highly recommend him to anyone looking to improve their performance in poker."

"Alan has been a game-changer for my career and well-being. Working with him I've improved my relationship with myself and others. I'm grateful and proud to have him in my corner, and consider him a friend and an ally."

Who this is for

If any of this sounds familiar, you're in the right place.

This is the part of the game most players know is costing them, and almost no one trains on purpose.

  • One bad session quietly undoes three good weeks.
  • You study a ton, but it doesn't show up when you're tired or under pressure.
  • Tilt makes the call before you've even noticed it's happening.
  • You know the leaks are mental — you just don't have a system to work on them.
  • Negative variance doesn't just cost money — it eats your confidence.

About me

I'm Alan Longo.

I came up coaching some of the best esports players in Latin America, then moved fully into poker in 2020. I'm not a poker player — I'm the person who works on the part of the game that has nothing to do with cards: the long sessions, the variance, the after-midnight rumination, the way results mess with your head. Over the years I've worked with some of the best players in poker, using performance-psychology tools, in plain language, backed by science.

"Working with Alan has been one of the most eye-opening and transformative experiences I've had. From the very beginning he had a way of seeing straight through me — patterns, beliefs and blocks I hadn't realized were there — and helped me bring them into the light. What sets him apart is his intuition, presence and genuine investment in growth. If you're looking for someone who won't let you hide from your own potential, I can't recommend him enough."

"I've been working with Alan for more than four years. When we met I was already a skilled player, moving from mid to high-stakes online — but being 'good' simply wasn't enough for me. The biggest transformation has been how I've structured my life outside the tables: optimizing my routines to consistently deliver my best in the sessions. For me, Alan is the ultimate reference when it comes to peak performance."
