About this game

Poker Skill is free. Forever.

Poker Skill is a Texas Holdem poker app that teaches you to play and makes you better: short lessons, a Daily Puzzle and games against AI opponents that play to win. After every move, Coach Max shows you the best play and explains why, in plain words.

PLAY TEXAS HOLDEM AGAINST AI
- Work your way through five rooms, starting in your buddy's garage, with heads-up and 3-player Sit & Gos against AI opponents
- Each room ends heads-up against its local pro, and beating the pro opens the next room
- The AI plays real Texas Holdem: it bluffs, it folds and it makes you pay for mistakes
- Coach Max reviews every move as you play, so you know at once whether a call, fold or raise was right
- After each game, Analysis shows how often you made the best play and lists every hand
- Tap a hand to see what Coach Max said about each decision, then replay it
- No waiting for other players: AI opponents fill every seat

LEARN POKER FROM ZERO
- Lessons take a few minutes and teach one decision at a time
- Get an answer wrong and the coach explains the better play

WHAT YOU'LL LEARN
- Texas Holdem rules: hand rankings, the best five cards and who wins
- Which starting hands to play
- Position, and why the button is the best seat
- Preflop: when to raise, call or fold
- Pot odds and outs, made simple
- Bluffing, value betting and bet sizing

A NEW PUZZLE EVERY DAY
- One poker hand a day, with every option graded, so you see how close your instinct was
- Practice that takes two minutes
- Streaks, XP, leagues and Daily Missions keep the habit going

TEXAS HOLDEM FOR BEGINNERS
- Each player gets two cards, and the blinds start the betting
- Preflop, you fold, call or raise with your two cards
- The flop puts three shared cards on the table, the turn a fourth and the river a fifth, with a round of betting after each
- At the showdown, the best five-card hand wins the pot
- The first lessons teach hand rankings, positions, the blinds and each action

POKER STRATEGY TRAINING
- Practice preflop decisions until the right play becomes habit
- Train your postflop play: when to bet for value, when to bluff and when to let a hand go
- Go back through every hand of a game and see how many big blinds you won or lost on each

WHO POKER SKILL IS FOR
- New players who want to learn how to play poker before they sit down at a table
- Home game and tournament players who want a poker trainer for a few minutes a day

Very first lesson has incorrect information on worst to best hands pop-up. The list contains "Straight Flush" twice, once in the 5th place & once in the 8th place. 30 seconds in & this app has been validated as completely useless. Uninstall.

Ah, yeah I see how it could read that way but it's just a comma placement issue: Straight (5th) and Flush (6th) are two different hands in a row, but comma-separated they read like Straight Flush listed twice. Next update shows the ladder with arrows so it can't be misread. Thanks for trying Poker Skill, maybe worth another look ;)

Really good app. only issue for me is the in-game UI, where the shadow of the pot obscures the middle community card, can make differentiating 4/5/6 a little tricky for my eyesight. otherwise it's fun and explains things well.

Really appreciate this. The pot shadow covering the middle card is a bug on our side, and reading the board should never come down to squinting. We've filed it and it's getting fixed. Glad the explanations are working for you.
