I disagree. In my opinion, it is always better to explain why something is bad instead of banning/deleting it. If such posts will be not present on this forum, people will find them somewhere else, where no critical replies can be found, and will get scammed as a result. We don't want that, right?


I'm sure it will help not just one, but many people in the future. It's only a matter of time when people realize how much useful info can be found on this forum. Yes, of course, not all the info here is valuable, there's a lot of spamming here, yes, but in any great library there are many sh*tty books too, right? You just have to find the right ones, ignoring all the garbage.

Perhaps giving it free to people on how to play poker well and correctly will interest them and periodically provide other lessons. If any of them benefit from the e-book, I'm sure they will try to get more interesting lessons out of it so that if he sells further lessons on poker, it can entice people to buy it. I guess it will have to do with marketing strategy if he wants to sell poker lessons, but he really needs to know how to sell them. Yes, he needed to earn people's trust before they would buy anything else from him.

Everything that can be achieved is interesting, for me it is something great that knowledge can be free, however as you say there are many ways to get providers for poker, but it would be good if you could take advantage of the help they are offering you, because I would only understand the usual theory, but also the practice and the tricks that some poker players have, in South America they say to those tricks: "tricks" is something funny but it really works on occasions, more when the public in poker It is so unpredictable, it could be that if you continue with enough dedication to being professional, the possibilities are endless in poker.

Yes, you are absolutely right, for me these things are very changeable
, now I don't know and you know that a very famous chess player is dedicating himself to the study and execution of poker, he wants to apply his knowledge in strategies to shine in chess, I don't remember his name very well, but I think that all these algorithms are designed to beat people like him who can see many moves in a short time, so I imagine that the algorithm is updated every time due to the type of strategy of very good players, for now it is very difficult to play poker when it comes to AI or very advanced programs.


For me the things that have been discussed in the thread are quite important, I would say that they have a lot of relevance according to the fact that if a novice sees all these discussions he has or could put together a mental scheme so as not to fall into scams, which is not something bad, i would say that instead of closing it, no matter what OP thinks, there is always someone who can get rich because of the thread, at one point i also thought that the best thing to do is to delete or close the thread, but it has had some relevance, and that's what matters, there are many things that I've read and that contribute, I don't see anything wrong with it, if the thread at the end helps even 1 person, I think it's fine.

Even though we do that, (which I find useful and very great as a fantastic reading resource for the community as a whole) it still remains to be said that even with our precautionary posts on this thread, there will still exist people who believe guys like OP who claim to know some secret, magic BS way of making money out of air. Its a bit sad, really. Especially for the complete newbies who have no idea what they are in for and might come to hate this forum just because they got duped by some guy like OP. It would be, in my thinking, a better forum if we actively started deleting and banning such posts.

I think most of the time we are not posting exclusively for the OP to read it. We are showing to other people that "poker courses for sale" is nonsense, and for those who still need something like that we are giving answers about how to play poker for free. Isn't it amazing that someone interested in buying poker courses can read this thread and get more useful info than form any courses in the world?


Actually, I doubt it. The thing is, the algorithm of winning in poker is changing over time. Today you can't use the same strategy Daniel Negreanu was winning with 10 years ago, let alone a strategy from decades ago.

Maybe you can make an e-book about the technique or method you have. So people can trust you a little. As for practice, you need to build people's trust in you, at least you can start by building your account on this forum, because in my opinion it can be a guarantee although not really a full guarantee.

Yes, you are right in what you say, many people search the web for any type of information about poker, and some search for more than that, then it is worth taking these courses that are free and then buying the programmatic content offered by the poker course. OP to see what new things they can offer to learn, obviously if there are better and more advanced things, it's worth it.

I say something, if there is good information, that someone who has played poker and has written his own course, it is something that should be respected and if he wants to sell it, he has every right, only that he should give some guarantees that it is good.


I agree with this, if a player has more experience it is likely that everything will be better, for me the things that have to be seen with experience are those that are not forgotten, also in poker any small bet can become a very great, so in this order of ideas, I think that many poker players with little theory, just knowing the basics of poker have become professionals, the real reason why I see a poker course as important is if those players who have a lot of experience in the way they play against really challenging scenarios, there it would also be a really good course, it's something like what Richard Wyckoff and Livermore did in their Trading books.

I really do not understand why people are entertaining this thread? Are the signature bounties really that important that you guys need to fill up every discussion thread with so many useless posts? The newbie has yet to prove himself. Is there anyone with a veteran account who can vouch for him?

Theres a bitcointalk newbie selling "courses" and he would rather do his business in private chats or by contacting him on a protonmail email... Are any of these not red flags?

Call me skeptical but is OP trying to erase any leads pointing to him?

His last posts were two months ago. Time to let the thread die.

That's right, the more games you play, the lesser role luck plays in your performance. Some professional poker players practicing sitting at several tables at once to eliminate the luck factor as much as possible.


Actually, it depends on the situation. If you are playing heads-up, 22 is a great pocket hand, and you are likely to win the pot with it, especially when you are the first who goes all-in and your opponent just folds preflop. However, with 8-9 players at the table it's obviously not that great of a hand, and it's better to fold preflop with such pocket cards.

To many platform to seek information about those courses, there are free videos which we can locate if we just use the google search engine and also with youtube so buying this so called poker courses is just a waste of money because we can learn this for free.

Doubt there are people here will get interest about this because for sure they know that there are ways to get those for free and they don't need to spend anything just to learn how to play poker.

I don't think so if this is too reliable instead there's the internet and of course, youtube that you can search different techniques it is now easy to access a lot of things because of the internet just basically search the thing you want to learn in poker there's a lot of websites, articles and videos you don't need to get a course just to play it also there's a lot of games right now you can play for casual and like the other games with multiplayer without paying just to seek fun I guess it is more ideal, also the thread is more suitable in services of OP want to pursue selling those service.

We all are various and smth that is good to me, wouldn`t be good to you. For me it is normally to play online or offline poker, but i have to play several days only one of them to remember how i have to play. And playing online poker with video brake all my rules - i`m at home, but i have to control emotions.

I just mark one moment. We have to play with overskilled players to increase our level. If we play with downskilled players - it doesn`t matter how much we are playing, we don`t study smth new.

You're right, you can play offline by applying many more strategies, but it's difficult because any gesture or something suggests that you have, but of course this is being the most observant. In the strategies that are had when it is online it is different, many apply any strategy and after the PC nobody knows the intentions of one over the other, then they are very different things, I think there should be a course for each case, both for outside line that is for me the most complicated than for online poker games or tournaments, because there must always be a very different behavior under the corresponding modality.


What you say is very true, a person should always polish their skills and take into account everything in terms of learning, also the fact of playing with people who play poker very well is a very good way to learn, and that is something called experience, in the books, in the courses everything is talked about and some techniques are given, it does not matter if they are paid courses, or if they are not free courses, thank God there is a lot of information and that it is of quality, that is very useful because at the moment Of us to apply our knowledge we have the necessary expertise to face any situation without needing to step aside thinking that we have a lower level or something, the more you play poker, the more professional it becomes


If obviously when a person is not on a streak or their games do not go well, it can also be due to the randomness that the game gives, if there is no luck in the hand, no matter how much knowledge one has, it is difficult to win, sometimes a night can leave anyone bankrupt and more so when you do not control what you have willing to lose, sometimes a good rest or that a person who plays a lot takes a vacation is not a bad thing, on the contrary, it is very good for your health mental and it does him good, sui is a person who always wins and who has money, because it doesn't hurt that half of his money goes to his enjoyment and fun.

It's true that luck affects all of us and should therefore not play a too big of a role in our decision making. But this implies that we are playing a lot of hands in poker regularly to get the randomness (positive and negative luck) out of our strategy. For someone who only plays maybe one night per month poker the aspect of luck is completely different. If we meet a recreational poker player who goes allin preflop with his 22 for example, only to hit another 2 on the river, we will lose a big pot. For him the win could mean everything and he might take a break for another 3 weeks from poker and enjoy his profit.  Swings in our profitability are part of every poker player, and the smaller the number of played hands the more will the swings affect our bankroll. That is also why tracking software for poker hands is so important. It will show me exactly how my swings are affecting my gameplay and if my strategy is still giving me an advantage over my opponents.

I sure that this is true for everything. Everybody have 2 choices to level-up and both of them are studying. As for poker - you can play with overskilled players, lose money but your skill will increase. Another way - courses, the most part of them free or it is possible to find it for free. The main problem is to find quality courses and i can`t say that the OP trying to sell such courses - he doesn`t tell us anything about it.

The game is more of practice and how you imply different strategies and bluff on the table as online you can't judge one's physical expression and you have to see how he's placing the bet on table and how well you can manage each hand.The luck is determinant factor that how good pair you get but it's more of strategy based game I would say.So going through courses can give you idea but practice will help you lot.

Well, AFAIK, the varieties of poker in which you play against the casino, such as video poker, it is not that they are difficult to win, the are simply EV-. You can't win in the long run. They are similar to other casino games where the RTP is always going to be less than 100%. In poker against other players you can make EV+ moves and get an RTP higher than 100%.

there are so many training service providers to play poker, if you really want to open the service, you should give different things to your practice, so that people will be more interested in you. In addition, the most important thing is trust, and what you have to build first is trust, the question is, how will people believe in you? while your account is still not relevant to be trusted in this forum.

Yeah, that's how you win in poker, by having more skills than others. Luck doesn't care who you are, it's distributed absolutely randomly among everyone. So, although it wouldn't be right to say that everyone has equal amount of luck, that definitely wouldn't be true, we can still say that no one can count on having more luck than others. Hence, we are all equal in this department. But we can count on having more skills. And if we are more skillful than our opponents, we have an edge over them.

I hadn't seen it that way, but you're right, I'm partly a person who learns things through books, it seems to me that books say it all, interpretations are what we give when analyzing the teachings that books give us. When there is a professional tutor, obviously the knowledge is much more rooted in the person, but what we put in context is that a course must be endorsed by at least 1 or 2 people, organizations that are trustworthy enough to take it, because there are currently Many people who like to cheat with this type of thing and cheat, I am not saying that whoever gives or offers the courses is like that, but it is necessary to have a good guarantee.


You are absolutely right my friend, a good player must always be updated, because now we have seen many players who do not leave their comfort zone and rely only on their previously acquired knowledge, and also fully trust their skills and intuition, and although they do not it is a bad perspective to think like that, we must bear in mind that the greatest teachers are the books, there in the majority of books I really like the experiences that many players have had and have trained them there, those are the books that I really teach, and this is how to trade, the more knowledge you have the better because it translates into making money.


If we make an analogy between sports betting and football, if it is closely related, it is based on the knowledge that one has in poker and in turn the knowledge that one has in football, what happens is that football is more open On the other hand, with poker on some platforms you usually face the casino and that is something that is difficult to win, usually the casino always has the advantage and that is something that we cannot ignore, but in soccer we cannot, it is against a casino in general but against the performance of a group of players and everything that has to do with a great strategy and that is something very big.
