Which poker training site aided you the most in your advancments?

[oroochimaru]

Poker training sites helped me take my game to a new level. I am currently doing "Raise your edges: RYE X GRND | xflixx & Bencb.
I can already see some good improvements and results in my Mtt games.

Raise Your Edge may not have been around as long as some of the other poker instruction sites, but its owner, Bencb789, has been playing for nearly a decade and is one of the most successful online tournament players in the last couple of years.

So which poker training site aided you the most in your advancments? :smile:

Might sound a bit cheesy, but for me it is cardschat.com for sure

I've learned a lot through the 30 Day course, the forum threads, the freerolls, the team leagues, the individual leagues and so on

I second the 30 day cardschat course.. however, I subscribe to a book reading site (scribd) and plan on reading a few poker books there, also I just recently subscribed too pokergo streaming as well (even tho I doubt I will ever play live poker) and I have purchased drivehud 2 for the year to help spot the loose players in games (Vpip- hands played etc) hopefully the combination of three help improve my game this year and I don't have to subscribe too a poker school site..

Twitch. You can't get a more authentic tutoring experience than from a pro who non-stop faces real, unpredictable questions which arise on the table and demand a quick solution.

I have read a lot of the sessions in poker stars Pokerschool, but like an earlier poster has said I think that I have learned the most from the comments posted by players who post here on Cards Chat

Totally agree mate! I watch from time to time Lex Velhuis, Jordan Banfield and Vivi Salibas twitch streams, to observe their mtt play.
But it is very difficult to remember all the plays/situations. They are also high stacks player and usually stay very close to GTO.
Its hard to copy their playstyle for our micro/low stacke games. I think you guys know how chaotic those games can be.

Don't they play you vs bots and rate you're play.. bot's wouldn't be donks like real life players playing 8 6 off vs AA preflop all in and catching.. you could also buy drive hud 2 and purchase leak buster for the year..Leak Buster 2 - Database Analysis

​

If you want to save a lot of time and money, training sites are quite useful for beginners. Of course you can try to learn everything by trial and error, but thats can be a long and painful path. Especially without the use of AI/Solvers.

Those coaches spend probably 10-100k hours, till they reached that top peak level. I personaly dont want to spend that much time to reach a certan level. I rather spend some money and take a shortcut. No need to reinvent the wheel.

I have never read a poker book or watched any learning videos. I have read a lot of CC posts and had discussions with CC members but that's it!!!!

Then your one of the lucky ones. I found/joined cardschat pretty late in my poker journey.
With CC, I could have improved considerably faster and saved a lot of time and money. But hey thats life.
I m just grateful I didn't have to learn how to play poker by just reading dull book pages.
Thank god we have nowadays youtube and twitch.

What topics did you miss on the cardschat 30 day course? I finished around 30%, gonna finish it in the coming weeks. Got busy with my other courses. So far everything looked nicely structured and explained. The 30 day course seems to be super beginner friendly.
How is your subscribtion with scribd going? Did you find some good poker books, you would recommend? Let us know. :smile:

Its a good course I found that value betting to be the best and took it to heart the most, I was running deep for few tourney after reading that part but I have to find a book about end game strategy to make it past ITM to final table or maybe I should just loosen up more well in ITM.. Katie Dozier and Colin Moshman recommended Harrington on Hold em (in the course vids) his second book is on end game but I haven't yet too finish the first one yet..
