Frequently asked questions

What the trainer covers, how a decision is graded, and exactly how much you can play without paying anything. Nothing here is behind a sign-up.

The basics

What is GTO, in one sentence?

Game Theory Optimal play is the mathematically unexploitable strategy: play it and no opponent can beat you long-term, whatever they do. We break it down fully on the “What is GTO?” page.

Do I need to be an advanced player?

No. Look up any range for free, solve any flop for free, then train it hand by hand with instant feedback. Beginners learn fundamentals; regulars close specific leaks.

Which formats are covered?

Cash games, tournaments (MTT) and Sit & Gos - from full-ring down to heads-up, deep-stacked through push/fold, each with its own solved ranges.

How the training works

How does grading work?

Preflop, your action is checked against the solver’s mixed strategy for that exact hand. Postflop, every decision is scored by its EV loss in big blinds against a deep solve.

How does the analysis screen work?

Every graded hand is saved to your account, then read back four ways: a 13×13 heatmap of your accuracy per starting hand, a ranking of your positions, your spots ordered by EV lost in big blinds, and a curve of the big blinds your training has won — measured against the rate you were giving away when the window opened, as a running total or per hand. Preflop and postflop are tracked separately, and you can view any window from the last 7 days to all time.

Free hands and Pro

How much can I play for free?

Chapters 1 and 2 in full, for the price of a free account and no card - same solver, same instant grading, no hand limit on either. Both are real chapters of a real guided path: pick tournaments, cash or sit & go, and chapter 1 deals you opening decisions on that game's table until you have cleared 40 spots at 78%; chapter 2 then does the same for blind-versus-blind, where the table folds to the small and big blind and the two of you play it out. Take as many hands as that needs. Preflop charts are browsable for free too, and the solver gives you five walkthroughs. Pro is what opens the fifteen chapters above those, and building your own spot to train.

Is there a free trial?

There is no timed trial, because there is something better: the free tier does not expire. Chapters 1 and 2 of every path with a free account and no cap on the hands, every hold’em preflop chart and the solver stay free for as long as you want them - that is your trial, and it runs on the real trainer with the real grading. Pro is billed from day one and you can cancel it at any time, keeping access until the period you paid for ends. No real-money play is involved.

How do I cancel or manage my subscription?

Two ways, both of them one click. While signed in, click "Manage subscription" in the header - it opens the Stripe customer portal, where you cancel, change your payment method or download invoices. Without signing in, use the "Cancel subscription" page linked in the footer of every page. Your subscription stays active until the end of the period you have already paid for, then the account drops back to the free tier - it is not deleted, and neither is your history: every hand you have played stays in your analysis, and the free chapters keep grading new ones.

Still deciding?

The two things worth an answer are both free and neither needs an account: play a hand and see it graded, or solve a spot of your own and read the strategy back.
