About this game

Stop guessing at the poker table. Start deciding.

Stoa Poker is a structured training app that teaches you how to think through a hand, from the cards you play to the size of your bet. You learn one skill at a time and practice one decision at a time.

HOW IT WORKS

Twelve skills take you from knowing the rules to knowing what to do with them. Each skill teaches one decision:

1. Opening Hands: which hands to raise with from each position

2. Position Awareness: why acting last gives you an edge

3. Blind Defense: when to fight back from the blinds

4. Non-Blind Defense: whether to call, 3-bet or fold when someone raises in front of you

5. Facing Limpers: how to punish weak open-limps

6. Board Reading: how to read the flop, turn and river quickly

7. Outs, Equity, and Pot Odds: the Rule of 2 and 4, made simple

8. Value Betting & Bet Sizing: how much to bet, and why

9. Opponent Types: how to spot and exploit nits, TAGs, LAGs and calling stations

10. Bluffing & Semi-Bluffing: when a bluff makes money

11. Full-Hand Integration: how the skills work together across complete hands

12. Range Thinking Lite: how to think about the range of hands an opponent could hold

WHY STOA POKER

Most poker training is a solver that needs a math degree, free videos with no practice, or a course that costs $50 to $200 a month. Stoa Poker gives you structured practice on real decisions at a lower price.

• Interactive drills: every lesson is a decision you make, with no videos or articles to sit through

• Instant feedback: each answer tells you whether it was right and explains why

• Spaced repetition: decisions you missed come back for review

• Mastery tracking: your progress in every skill, in one place

• Hand review: your recent decisions, so you can see where you went wrong

WHO IT'S FOR

Stoa Poker is for home-game players who know the rules and want a system for their decisions. If you often finish a hand asking yourself "what was I thinking?", start here. It isn't for players who don't know the hand rankings yet, or for advanced players studying solver output for high-stakes online games.

PRICING

Skills 1 and 2 are free. To unlock all 12, subscribe for $9.99 a month or $59.99 a year. New subscribers get a 7-day free trial. The monthly plan costs less than a typical home-game buy-in.

FROM THE CREATOR

I built Stoa Poker after watching good players make the same bad decisions for years. They cared about the game, but nobody had taught them a framework for it. This app is that framework.

Stoa Poker is a strategy training app. It involves no real money and no gambling.
