The Training plan
Learn GTO poker from real solver maths
A daily plan, a course and drills built on equilibrium strategies computed by real solvers, not canned answers. Reviews rank your leaks by what they cost, and a table of bots lets you put it all together.
£10 a month or £100 a year. Includes everything in Member. Works on web and mobile.
GTO in plain words
What GTO actually means
GTO stands for game theory optimal. A GTO strategy is an equilibrium: a way of playing that an opponent can’t beat by changing how they play. You don’t need to memorise it. The point is to learn why the best ranges look the way they do, so your own decisions get sounder and other players’ mistakes stand out.
Equity
How often a hand wins against a range. Preflop equities are precomputed by Monte Carlo simulation. After the flop they are exact: every remaining runout is counted.
CFR
Counterfactual regret minimisation. The solver plays a spot against itself over and over, shifting toward the actions it regrets not taking, until both sides settle on an equilibrium.
ICM and Nash
In a tournament, chips aren’t money: losing your stack costs more than doubling it gains. The Independent Chip Model prices that, and a Nash solve finds push and call ranges neither player can profit by changing.
Inside the Training plan
One loop: today, learn, drill, play, review
Training is organised the way you improve. The plan tells you what to do, the course explains it, the drills make it automatic, the table tests it and the review shows what it cost.
Today
What to do now
A daily plan
Each day has a shape: charts, then math, then the solver drills, then hands at the table, then a review. Targets are modest on purpose, so you finish them.
A daily review
What today cost you, whether it was better or worse than usual, and what to do next. It tells you when a day is too small a sample to judge.
The AI coach’s note
A short daily note written by an AI model from your aggregated results only, never your hand histories. If it can’t run, you get a plain written summary instead.
Learn
The idea, in words
The course
Written lessons that build from foundations (position, ranges, the math you actually use) to tournament play, each linked to the drill that practises it.
Stage videos
A curated library of coaching videos sorted by tournament stage: early game, middle game, bubble and ICM, and final table. Each comes with our own notes.
Drill
Repeat it until it’s automatic
Preflop charts and quiz
Browse opening and defending ranges by stack depth and seat, then take a quiz that focuses on the boundary hands, the ones that change between neighbouring charts.
ICM push/fold
Shove or fold, call or fold, against a live ICM Nash solve for your exact stacks and payouts. See the full answer on 13×13 range grids for both players.
Postflop spots
Flop and turn decisions from spots solved range against range with CFR. You choose, then see how the solution plays every hand.
MTT preflop solver
Solve a preflop spot live: open, 3-bet, 4-bet or jam, at the stack depth and payouts you choose, in chip EV or ICM. Then drill it: answer first, and see what your choice cost.
Hand reading
Read an opponent’s range from the betting line, then see the exact range the solved strategy arrives at.
Math gym
Pot odds, break-even bluffs and the other sums you need at a live table, scored on speed and accuracy, plus an exact calculator for your own spots.
Play
Put it together in real hands
Eight bot personalities
A full table any time. Eight bots with their own styles, from tight and patient to loose and aggressive, at four levels from Beginner to Shark.
The coach panel
Turn the coach on for every decision: your chance of winning, the price you’re being offered, and a suggested action with the reason. Undo a move and try again.
Review
What it cost, and what to fix
Leak finder
Your mistakes ranked by what they cost, not how often you made them, with the direction to fix: calling too wide is a different fix from calling too tight.
Coach
Your leaks, the lessons and drills that target them, and whether each one is improving. It won’t call a leak until there are enough hands to tell.
ICM leverage map
Who at your table has to fold to a shove, how wide they can call, and how often everyone folds. Pressure as numbers you can act on.
Placement
A short starting assessment across the main preflop spots, so the coach has a baseline from day one.
Record
Everything you’ve drilled and played, in one place.
Straight talk
What the solvers cover, and what they don’t
Solver output is only useful if you know its limits, so the app tells you, and so do we.
- Push/fold covers one player shoving and one player deciding whether to call, at 25 big blinds or less. Deeper spots are logged but never scored as leaks.
- Postflop spots are a library of solved flop and turn decisions with simplified bet sizes and one raise per street. It isn’t a full-game solver.
- When the MTT solver has to simplify a big tree to fit, it says so on screen and names the model it used. Early-position opening ranges come from solves run in advance.
- The preflop charts are a fixed reference set for tournament play, not live solves.
- The coach at the bot table uses fast equity estimates against random hands and the pot odds, not a full solve.
- Training helps you understand the game. It can’t promise results: poker has variance, and real opponents don’t play like solvers.
Fair play
Training stays in training
The coach, the solvers and the AI note never appear at real tables. Training hands don’t count toward your crew, your points or the League.
Web and mobile
The whole Training section runs in the browser on a phone, tablet or computer, and it’s built into the Homeroom Poker apps that are on the way. Your record follows your account.
