Poker Academy’s newest feature – the Strategy Grid – is a brand-new way to explore preflop strategy from a broader perspective. 
With the Strategy Grid, you can view all preflop charts for a specific action across every position on one screen. It helps you better understand the overall framework of preflop strategy and compare how ranges change by position. 

👉 Watch this video to see how Pawel, Co-founder of Poker Academy, uses it in action! 

Strategy Grid is activated when you select RFI (Raise First In), vs RFI, or Multiway charts in the Preflop Charts tool. You’ll find a new button at the top right of the Tournament section. 
Let’s say you open the RFI chart for the Hijack and turn on Strategy Grid — you’ll instantly see all relevant charts for the Hijack and later positions side by side, just like in the view below:

When You’ll Benefit Most from Using Strategy Grid 

Strategy Grid shines when you want to see how preflop strategies shift by position — especially in common but nuanced spots like RFI, defending vs opens, or multiway situations. 
It’s particularly useful when: 

  • You’re looking for an efficient way to learn fundamental strategies for all positions 
  • You’re studying how open-raising ranges change across positions 
  • You want to compare flatting or 3-betting ranges from different seats 
  • You’re analyzing how ranges shift in ICM spots depending on stack sizes 
  • You’re coaching and want to explain position-based differences at a glance 

Instead of clicking through each chart individually, Strategy Grid gives you the full picture in one place. 

Who Gets the Most Out of Strategy Grid 

Strategy Grid helps players at every level, but certain groups may get even more value: 

  • Beginner Players – It simplifies the complexity of position-based strategy, helping you develop strong preflop fundamentals faster. Start learning GTO strategy in a clear and accessible way! 
  • Coaches and Content Creators – Perfect for presentations or screen sharing during lessons. Strategy Grid makes it easy to walk through positional differences clearly. 
  • Advanced Players – Great for comparing population tendencies to optimal strategy, making it easier to spot where the field deviates — and where exploits can be found. Strategy Grid helps you quickly scan for patterns that might otherwise go unnoticed when reviewing one chart at a time.
