Phil Galfond's poker coaching site Run It Once has been🎉 up
and running since 2012 and describes itself as "the world's leading poker strategy
community."
Those curious to check it out🎉 can do so for free just by getting an account
that provides full access to the site's strategy forum where🎉 members post hand
histories, discuss concepts and theories, and talk about anything else poker.
On top of
that, all members can🎉 check out three free 'Elite Videos'.
But it is the site's huge
and constantly expanding library of video content geared toward🎉 players of all stakes
and games that distinguishes "RIO" from other instructional sites.
Those willing to
invest can choose between two🎉 tiers of membership:
" Essential " (low stakes)
" (low

Galfond
describes "Essential" as geared toward🎉 games with stakes under 500NL, with "Elite"
directed toward 500NL and up.
The line-up of professional players forming the "Run It
🎉 Once Pro Roster" who have made instructional videos for the site is impressive.
It
comprises more than 100 different players including🎉 Galfond, Ben Sulsky, Jason Koon,
James Obst, Daniel Dvoress, Christopher Kruk, George Danzer, Sam Grafton, Jennifer
Shahade, Brian Rast, Fedor🎉 Holz, Stephen Chidwick, Tommy Angelo, and Ola Amundsgard,
and more.
3. Upswing Poker
One of the new poker training sites getting a🎉 lot of
attention during the past few years thanks in part to the high profile of founder Doug
Polk, is🎉 Upswing Poker.
Launched in 2024, Polk and Ryan Fee head a list of pros
contributing to the site's numerous poker coaching🎉 products.
Upswing Poker provides at
no cost a few handy resources that include:
eight "preflop raise charts" designed to
improve starting hand🎉 selection and strategy (and win rates)

to categorize🎉 poker hands profitably.
Those offerings are both designed to encourage
players to join the "Poker Training Lab," a.k.a. the "Upswing Poker🎉 Lab," which allows

charts, as well as🎉 access to the site's Facebook group.
To join the Upswing Poker Lab
requires aR$49/month subscription plus an initialR$99 sign-up fee, or🎉 users can get a
discount by subscribing for six months ($299) or one year ($499).
Those willing to

heading.
These include the following courses:
"Advanced Heads-Up Mastery" by Doug
Polk
"Tournament Master Class"🎉 by Doug Polk and Pratyush Buddiga
"Mixed Game Mastery"

Cash Game Ranges
Tournament Ranges
Multiway Ranges
5
Card PLO Ranges
In addition, the site boasts advanced poker tournament training for
higher stakes🎉 players led by one of the biggest names in the game Nick Petrangelo, who
has two poker courses dubbed “Winning🎉 Poker Tournaments” and “Advanced High Stakes MTT
Sessions”.
The courses aren't cheap with most requiring a one-time fee ranging
fromR$299 up🎉 toR$999.
However, this could be a small price to pay, especially for
higher-stakes players, when considering how the poker training courses🎉 can advance your
game.
4. Pokercode
Pokercode is one of the newest poker training sites and has taken
the poker world by🎉 storm after it was founded by high-stakes poker phenoms Fedor Holz
and Matthias Eibinger in 2024.
The training site focuses not🎉 only on tournaments with
MTT Coaches Holz, Eibinger, and Simon Rønnow, but also on cash game players looking to
improve🎉 under the guidance of Steffen Sontheimer, acting as the Pokercode Cash Game
Author & Coach.
Hiring any of these coaches in🎉 the past could cost thousands of dollars
an hour. A Pokercode subscription will cost much less with three different plans
🎉 available. Pokercode stands by its product offering new customers a 14-day money-back
guarantee with no questions asked.
Plan Price Monthly €99🎉 Quarterly €214 (€71.33 per
month) Annual €699 (€58.25 per month)
There is also a free follower plan which gives
you access🎉 to one live coaching per month, 11 poker video lectures, and limited access
to the Pokercode community.
Pokercode not only provides🎉 world-class training videos but

This also is
the case for the exclusive live training sessions🎉 provided Pokercode where the

a look🎉 at just some of what is available for Pokercode community members:
8+ exclusive
Live Coachings per month in Cash Game &🎉 Tournaments

Sontheimer
Best Poker Tools, including Pokercode🎉 Rangeviewer
Ever-growing content
library, new lessons every week
Access to exclusive Pokercode Community
Pokercode is
more than just a training site as they🎉 have developed a tight poker community. This is
not only evidenced in the dedicated Slack group with more than 1,000🎉 members but also
with its Grindhouse now on its second version where a group of eight poker players live
together🎉 in the Austrian Alps for what is described as a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity
to learn from the best of the game.
In🎉 addition, Pokercode launched its live Pokercode
Festival in September 2024 with its first festival taking place at Banco Casino
Bratislava.🎉 Pokercode members got to meet for the first time while competing in
high-quality live tournaments. In addition, there were many🎉 community activities
planned including a live coaching session, a party, a pub quiz, and much more.
5.
Advanced Poker Training
First launched🎉 by brothers Allen and Steve Blay in 2007,
Advanced Poker Training has evolved into a well-established poker training site that
🎉 offers users a somewhat different and potentially more immersive experience than do
most sites.
At the heart of APT is its🎉 "Poker Training Game" that allows players to
play online against sophisticated "virtual" opponents in cash games (full ring,
six-max., or🎉 heads-up) and tournaments (SNGs, MTTs, and "final table"-only).
The
multi-table tournaments are the most popular among users and can be customized🎉 in a
variety of ways — you can even play an MTT against 8,000 opponents.
The site also
features interesting "Beat🎉 the Pro" challenges that involve watching a video concerning
a particular topic, playing "challenge hands" against computerized opponents, then
watching🎉 a replay of the hands you played with audio commentary by pros like Scott
Clements, Jonathan Little, Mike Caro, Scotty🎉 Nguyen, David Williams, and Lauren Kling
and others explaining how they would have played the same hands.
There's also the
"Combat🎉 Trainer" providing repeated drills of common scenarios.
There's a lot more on
APT as well — instructional videos (including ones featuring🎉 former WSOP Main Event
champs Qui Nguyen and Scott Blumstein), various tools, games for mobile devices
designed to improve poker🎉 knowledge, a blog, a poker forum, and more.
There are even
periodic "live" tournaments in which APT members can play against🎉 one another on the
site. Also useful, every hand played on APT is saved and thus available for later
review🎉 and to be used to produce weekly reports and other data.
Creating an account on
APT is free, and allows access🎉 to some of the beginning level Poker Training Games.
Full membership isR$39.97/month, or you can get 6-month ($180) and yearly🎉 subscriptions
($300) which work out cheaper per month. However, the latter two options are billed as
one payment.
If you know🎉 Advanced Poker Training is for you for the long haul, then a
four-year membership is available forR$599.
6. Tournament Poker Edge
Created🎉 in 2010,
Tournament Poker Edge is a little different from other sites in that it focuses
exclusively on multi-table tournaments.
The🎉 site features over 1,000 training videos,
with at least four new videos produced each week.
Members additionally have access to
pro🎉 blogs and strategy articles and forums. There is also "Tournament Poker Edge
University," a full "curriculum" of videos, articles, podcasts,🎉 and quizzes designed to
help players find trouble spots in their games and improve.
For the last seven-plus
years, the site🎉 has also hosted a popular MTT strategy podcast available for free to
anyone, which, combined with other free content on🎉 the site, provides players with a
way to sample what TPE has to offer before subscribing.
More than 30 pros are🎉 currently
listed as contributors on the site, among them Casey Jarzabek, Andrew Brokos, Daryl
Jace, Collin Moshman, Justin Ouimette, Mike🎉 Leah, Jamie Kerstetter, and Alexander
Fitzgerald.
The site has no signup fee and offers a free trial to newcomers.

7. Red Chip Poker
Started in 2013 by
poker pros/coaches James Sweeney, Doug Hull, Ed Miller,🎉 and Christian Soto, Red Chip

poker🎉 tournament strategy.
The full PRO membership ($50/month) offers a 7-day free
trial and provides access to hundreds of training videos made🎉 by a variety of coaches,
with new content created every week.
PRO membership also includes unlimited access to
the site's "Crash🎉 Courses" and "CORE" poker course, with those also available as
options for players looking to spend a little less to🎉 get started.
There's a
"LiveR$1/$2 NL Crash Course" focusing on low-stakes cash games and another "MTT Crash
Course" devoted to MTT🎉 poker tournaments, each of which costR$39.95.
Purchasers get
unlimited access to training videos, podcasts, and articles on the chosen format (cash
🎉 or tourneys), plus the ability to participate in the site's forum.
The site also
launched its CORE 2.0 bundle, which is🎉 an update from the previous CORE membership.
This is a unique and inexpensive way for players to try out the🎉 site without spending
much at all ($5/month).
CORE 2.0 includes over 200 lessons covering everything from
"basic building blocks" like poker🎉 tells, value betting and pot odds to "advanced
concepts" like triple-barreling, how to calculate equity in poker, and multi-street
planning.
Also🎉 among the updated content are the new cash and MTT courses from the
aforementioned Miller and WSOP bracelet winner Chris🎉 "Fox" Wallace. Brand new preflop
range charts are also available on theR$5 price tier along with more than 75 hand
🎉 analysis lessons.
CORE lessons vary in length, often containing a video plus exercises
and quizzes with users able to earn "achievement🎉 badges" to mark their progress.
As is
the case with the other sites on this list, there is a lot of🎉 free content available
over at Red Chip Poker as well, including videos, podcasts, and articles.
Players are
encouraged to check out🎉 each site and sample what it has to offer first before signing
up.
8. Raise Your Edge
Raise Your Edge has firmly🎉 established itself as one of the best
poker training platforms out there.
The site was founded by high-stakes crusher
Benjamin "bencb789"🎉 Rolle, who along with other instructors share their knowledge in
some of the most comprehensive no-limit Texas hold'em courses out🎉 there.
There is a
free poker course you can take to get your appetite wet but the real goodies come in
🎉 the paid courses which although aren't cheap are perhaps the most authoritative guide
to help you crush online poker tournaments.
There🎉 are 8 poker courses which are
comprised of 500 video lessons and more than 100 hours of content. The courses🎉 have
different price points, with the more expensive options providing greater access to the
platform's resources. People can have a🎉 taste of the free content available, however,
it is worth noting that some of the expert tiers are priced aboveR$1,000.

9.
PokerNerve
PokerNerve is another video poker training site that🎉 offers some free poker
training as an appetizer to join their site for their paid courses.
That being said, it
would🎉 be wrong for you not to take advantage of the free material even if you don't
sign-up for a paid🎉 membership.
If you are looking for poker tournament training this
might be the right spot for you as Kelvin "Acesup" Beattie,🎉 who has more thanR$5
million in online tournament cashes, is the face of the site.
The three main poker
training courses🎉 range in price fromR$139 toR$690 for lifetime access.
Meaning you
won't have to spend money each month to keep your subscription🎉 up to date and can
absorb course material at your own pace without feeling rushed to complete before time
runs🎉 out on your access.
Unlike some of the other training sites that are suitable to
either beginner or advanced levels, PokerNerve🎉 has something for everyone. Here is a
look at the three main courses at PokerNerve:
Course Lessons Price Advanced PKO 40🎉 +
lessonsR$499 Premium MTT Training 90 + lessonsR$690 Starter MTT Training 20 +
lessonsR$139
10. SplitSuit Poker
SplitSuit Poker is a great🎉 place to head to for plenty
of free poker resources. Of course, the bulk of the more advanced training comes🎉 from
the site's found James "SplitSuit" Sweeney.
The site is designed for cash game players,
so if you are looking for🎉 poker tournament training you should head elsewhere.
If Texas
hold'em cash games are what you are looking to improve on, this🎉 course could be the
best option for you.
The two main poker courses you can learn from at SplitSuit Poker
are🎉 The One Percent and The Step-By-Step Hand Reading System.
The One Percent course is
based off the popular poker book by🎉 poker author Ed Miller. While the book is certainly
worth a read as there is plenty to learn from, Sweeney🎉 takes the book to the next level
in this course.
The course boasts a Basic Edition atR$199 and a Pure Edition🎉 atR$399.
Meanwhile, The Hand Reading Lab is priced a bit higher atR$497, which isn't too
expensive considering the course is🎉 designed to improve your win rate in cash games.
Just one big pot going your way will pay for the🎉 course itself.
11. PLO QuickPro
Most
online poker training sites focus solely on no-limit Texas hold'em. After all, this is
what most🎉 poker players play and it is the easiest game for new players to get their
heads around.
This doesn't mean that🎉 you can't get poker training in other poker
variants.
PLO QuickPro is such an example it is dedicated to bringing your🎉 pot-limit
Omaha (PLO) game to the next level.
The Omaha poker training is led by WSOP gold
bracelet winner John Beauprez.
The🎉 site has plenty of free material for you to learn
from but the most valuable information is in the paid🎉 courses that start atR$297. Here
is a look at what's on offer:
Course Monthly Payment Plan One Time Payment PLO QuickPro
🎉 Win$1k 6 XR$97R$499 PLO QuickPro Out Of Position Mastery 6 XR$97R$499 PLO QuickPro
Manual 6 XR$67R$299 PLO QuickPro Postflop Power🎉 3 XR$166R$399 3Bet Pots Game Theory &
PracticeR$1,497 toR$1,797
As you can see, most of the training courses offer a monthly
🎉 plan.
We recommend if choosing QuickPro for your poker training needs to consider
saving up for the One Time Payment as🎉 this will cost you less over time.
12. Daniel
Negreanu Masterclass
If you want to learn from the best, why not consider🎉 the Daniel
Negreanu Masterclass.
Negreanu is open about his life in his vlogs, which are more
prevalent during the World Series🎉 of Poker but rarely does he open up about his
strategy that has led to six WSOP gold bracelets and🎉 more thanR$42 million in live
poker tournament earnings.
The Masterclass is cheaper than some of the other options at
just €200🎉 for lifetime access. This also includes a 30-day money-back
guarantee.
Negreanu's goal in the masterclass is to help you think like🎉 a poker
pro.
There are 38 courses and nearly eight hours of video content. Of course, if taking
the course it🎉 will take far more than eight hours as there will be oftentimes to
reflect as well as rewatch content to🎉 make sure you are getting the most out of what
one of the best poker players has to offer.
13. Phil🎉 Ivey Masterclass
Phil Ivey needs
no introduction to the poker world as he is one of the most recognizable faces in
🎉 poker.
At one point, Ivey had his own training site dubbed 'Ivey League' but this has
disbanded.
Now the only place to🎉 get inside the 10-time WSOP bracelet winner's head is
in the Phil Ivey Masterclass.
The online poker training course features 12🎉 lessons and
nearly 3 ½ hours of content. While this is less than what is available in the Daniel
Negreanu🎉 Masterclass you don't have to choose between the two.
If you purchase a
Masterclass subscription you will have access to both🎉 courses and much more.
14. BBZ
Poker
BBZ Poker, founded by high-stakes poker professional Jordan “bigbluffzinc”
Drummond, has emerged as a prominent🎉 name in the poker training sphere. Renowned for
its innovative strategies and comprehensive approach, BBZ Poker offers a range of

🎉 an eye on their promotional activities, newsletters, and social media might grant
occasional access to valuable free training materials and🎉 insights, making it an
excellent gateway for poker enthusiasts seeking to enhance their skills.
Poker
Training
For many years, players who were🎉 serious about learning the best poker
strategies and increasing their likelihood for success relied on experience alone to
better their🎉 games.
The poker rules, they knew. It was 'trial and error' one hand at a
time, with the lessons potentially being🎉 costly depending on just how many errors were
made during those trials.
The rise of poker strategy books and magazines eventually
🎉 provided another means for players to learn about the game in between their time at the
tables.
These enabled players to🎉 learn not only which were the better poker hands to
play and odds and probabilities to know, but to become🎉 acquainted with advanced
concepts like the importance of position in poker, table dynamics, image and player
types, and other concepts🎉 mastered by those already versed in the game.
The advent of
the internet brought about a couple of other important developments🎉 as far as learning
poker strategy was concerned.
The online poker book fuelled the growth of an impressive
number of poker🎉 coaching sites
The introduction of online poker in the late 1990s and
its quick explosion in popularity during the 2000s made🎉 it possible for many more to
play poker for real money — including in the privacy of their homes —🎉 than had been the
case before.
The rise of online poker in turn also helped fuel the growth of poker
sites🎉 designed to provide poker strategy advice online via articles, discussion forums,
and instructional videos.
Today there's a multitude of online options🎉 for players
looking to up their games, whether you're an occasional player of low buy-in
tournaments in your local casino,🎉 or a full-time grinder looking to be an online poker
pro.
Online poker training sites first emerged during the "boom" years🎉 more than a
decade ago, with some still going strong today and others have emerged to earn a place
among🎉 the best poker training sites available at present.
What follows is a list of the
most popular poker training sites available🎉 today for those looking not just to review
fundamentals or learn a few tips to help them in their home🎉 game, but those seriously
wanting to become full-time, professional poker players.
In other words, if you want to
learn how to🎉 win at poker, you'll love this guide.
These aren't reviews, but summaries
of each site's offerings. All provide introductory content for🎉 no charge to give new
visitors a sense of what they offer.
