A calling station folds too little, so bluffs need more folds than he gives and value bets get paid by worse. The break-even maths, a solver node locked as Calling Station L, and what changes in your sizing.

C-bet frequency and size from two flop reports, each solved with a single sizing menu: button vs big blind at 20bb (25 flops) and small blind vs big blind at 50bb (184 flops). High card, paired and monotone boards, and why range and nut advantage explain the numbers.

Pot odds, MDF and bluff share against a maniac’s bets, how the button defends a 3-bet and the big blind calls a jam at 50bb, and what the solver does against a locked Bully: it leads into him instead of calling more.

From December 6 to 17, 2024, the European Poker Tour (EPT) returns to the vibrant city of Prague for an unmissable poker festival.

Collapsing a solver’s mixed strategy costs under 0.001bb a hand: the solver only mixes between actions it prices the same. What does cost is carrying one chart into the wrong spot (0.04bb a hand) and forcing one bet size on every flop (up to 0.79bb). Measured on Poker Academy solutions.

A nit folds too much and bets only strong hands. Solver steal ranges at 30bb, the price of calling a nit’s 4-bet jam with JJ, and what the Nit profile does to a range facing a flop bet in the postflop solver.

From November 7th to November 10th, Poker Academy team will be in Bratislava, Slovakia.

Every pocket pair in the big blind at 25bb, chipEV with a big-blind ante: when to call, 3-bet or jam against EP, HJ, button and small blind, plus the set-mining maths and why implied odds are thin at this depth.

Poker hand rankings from royal flush to high card, with example cards, exact odds out of 2,598,960 five-card hands, tie-breaks, split pots and the best starting hands by solver EV.

What VPIP, PFR, 3-bet, fold to 3-bet, c-bet and WTSD measure, the solver baselines to compare them with (6-max cash, 100bb), and the maths of sample size: after 20 opportunities a 64% stat is really anything from 43% to 85%.

New update: From now on, users can upload their own HRC simulations to the Preflop Charts tool.

A seeded variance model for MTTs: how deep downswings go at 100, 500 and 2,000 runners, why 30 buy-ins is not a tournament bankroll, how long a winner can run breakeven, and how to get through it.

Fast and slow actions are weak evidence, online and live. How to use a timing read as a small tiebreaker, why it cannot pay for a bluff on its own, and how a decision timer in training makes your own timing consistent.

How to defend the big blind: the price you get against different open sizes, how blind vs blind works when the small blind raises or limps, and how the big-blind ante changes it. Solver charts from a 40bb tournament and a 100bb cash game.

I’ve been in poker for 22 years now, which makes me an old man dinosaur in this game.

There’s very little difference in poker knowledge between say, the number one player and the number thirty player in the world.

There are a million different ways, but all good routines have one thing in common: they help you feel connected inside and out.

I was one of the first people to hire a mindset coach 15+ years ago, and I went from a total crusher making $400+ an hour and enjoying the game to feeling completely burned out.

We are thrilled to share with you our freshly published Poker Academy roadmap!
