Testimonial from Zachary:
In December 2024, I won $1,162,350 during the Wynn WPT championship. In August 2024, I won a WSOP poker bracelet. For both of these tournaments and final tables, Amit Katyayan was the last person I spoke to in preparation; this alone should speak volumes to the trust I put in Amit’s abilities. These tournament wins can be seen here:

I started working with Amit in October 2022. The goal was to build consistency into my poker game and I wanted to learn from his game theory background. Amit’s ability to understand poker software is second to none. He also has an uncanny understanding of player pool analysis. I have always considered myself a strong poker player, but Amit’s performance psychology has taken this to a new level. Before working with Amit, I had cashed for $260,000 in poker tournaments. Since then, that number stands at over $1.7 million.
Over the last few years, I have had an unbelievable experience training my analytical abilities and mental focus to grow my health business and poker career. I recognize Amit’s hand in my success as a coach and poker player. He is a born leader and has made me into both a better student and teacher to those that I coach. He has opened my eyes to new styles of performance analytics that I have eagerly added to my own holistic coaching toolbelt.
I have had the pleasure of going to Amit’s house for dinner and can attest to his ability to cook up a delicious meal from scratch. He is a fantastic person and a true friend.
Sincerely,
ZVK
