In short: four training games — Openings (preflop, with instant feedback), Range Read, Bluff Catcher and Set Value (the last three use real hands that went to showdown) — all under the Training menu.

Plan: Free trains 20 hands/day in Openings and 10 in each of the other 3 games · Pro/Max 🔒 unlocks everything unlimited

The 4 games, in one line each

Openings: preflop decision (fold/call/raise) on a HU/6-max/9-max table, with the solver's frequency.
Range Read: read the villain's real action on a showdown hand and mark the 13×13 grid with the range you think he has, street by street.
Bluff Catcher: same read, but on the river you decide Fold, Call or Raise against his bet.
Set Value: pocket pair, villain raises — is it worth calling to hit your set? Implied odds math, in practice.

Each game has a "How to play" button in the header with its specific step-by-step.

Openings — the classic preflop trainer

Knowing the right range is one thing; running it on autopilot is another. Locks in your preflop fundamentals through repetition: a hand shows up, you decide, and the app tells you right away if you got it right — backed by the solver's exact frequency. It's a quiz with the look of a poker table.

Choose the format: HU, 6-max or 9-max

Each format is a different game — positions change, who opens changes, and the button's opening range in 9-max isn't the same as in 6-max (in HU you open half your hands). Training one and sitting down at another is guesswork. In the Configure training popup, the Format selector switches the table:

6-max (free): the 6-seat table, the online cash standard.
9-max (Pro): full ring, with the extra positions (UTG+1, UTG+2, LJ…).
HU / heads-up (Pro): a 2-seat table — just SB (button) and BB.

The table redraws itself to 2, 6 or 9 seats and the available positions change on their own.

What you can train

Several scenarios, not just opening:

RFI (open): you're first to enter the pot. Fold or Raise.
Vs-open: someone opened before you. Fold, Call or 3-bet.
Vs 3-bet, vs 4-bet and Isolate (limper): re-raised pots and isolating limpers — the more advanced scenarios (Pro).

In Configure training you pick one scenario or leave it on "All" (the app draws scenarios at the table's real frequency, not evenly — opening comes up more than facing a 4-bet, just like in real life). You can also filter by position and difficulty (easy / medium / hard — medium prioritizes decision hands, the edge of the range, instead of filling the screen with obvious folds).

Which range to train against: GG, PokerStars or yours

Still in the popup, the room selector (3-way):

GG: the reference for GGPoker (Rush & Cash).
PokerStars: the reference for PokerStars — different from GG because rake changes the correct play.
Mine: your own ranges from the Ranges → My Range editor (6-max only — the custom data is 6-max).

The default is GG · 6-max · 100bb; you pick the rest. Train against the reference of the room where you play.

Rank, mastery and badges (gamification)

Training has a progress trail, in the chip at the top of the screen (click to open it):

XP and rank: every hand trained earns XP; you climb from Beginner to Crusher.
Mastery map: your hit rate by scenario, worst to best — and it's clickable: tap a scenario to drill straight into that spot.
Badges and a daily streak: train today and the flame lights up; hit-streak milestones pop confetti.

Warm up on your leak (targeted training)

Diagnosis and the session check-in have a "Warm up in training" button that opens Openings already on your focus leak's scenario (e.g., "Warm up on vs 3-bet"). That way practice attacks your real mistake, not a random spot.

How to use it

Go to Training → Openings.
(Optional) In Configure training, pick format, room, scenario, position and difficulty.
The app draws a hand. Decide with the buttons or shortcuts (F = Fold, C = Call, R = Raise, space = next).
See the instant feedback, watch your score climb and your XP add up.

When you get it wrong

A window with the solution opens over the table: the right action, the spot's context, the 13×13 grid with your hand highlighted, and the EV you left on the table with the play you chose. Closing the window keeps you on the same hand to restudy it; only "Continue" (or space) moves on.

The end-of-session report

When you finish (or hit the Free limit), a report shows up: how many hands, hit %, your worst scenario of the session, the hands you got wrong and your progress over the week. It's the summary of "how you did just now."

Tips

Train the spot Diagnosis flagged as a leak — practice attacks your real mistake.
Use the keyboard shortcuts: training goes a lot faster.

Range Read

In short: you read a real villain's action on a hand that went to showdown in the pool, street by street, and mark the 13×13 grid with the range you think he holds — then check it against his real hand.

You see the villain's real action (preflop, flop, turn, river) — without seeing his cards yet.
Before each street advances, mark the 13×13 grid with the range you think he has. Click and drag to mark several hands at once; the "Fill %" slider quickly marks the strongest hands up to a percentage.
Click a marked hand to open the combo card below and fine-tune it (e.g., just one specific suit of a suited hand).
Click "Advance" to lock in your guess for that street and see your score — the tighter the range while still correct, the more points.
On the river, click "Show showdown" to reveal the villain's real hand and your final score.

The score is per street (how much you narrowed the correct range with each new piece of information) and a final score for the hand. It's deduction training, not math — the correct answer is always the hand the villain actually held.

Bluff Catcher

In short: the same engine as Range Read, but on the river, instead of marking a range, you decide: Fold, Call or Raise.

You read the villain's real action street by street and mark the 13×13 grid, same as Range Read.
The difference: your own hand (the hero) stays visible the whole time — you already know your cards, only the villain's stay hidden.
On the river, the villain bets. Instead of marking a range, you decide: Fold, Call or Raise.
The correct decision is checked against the villain's real hand at showdown — no equity math: if your hand was ahead of his, calling (or raising) was correct.

Trains specifically poker's most expensive decision: the river call-or-fold against a bet, with the benefit of finding out right after whether the villain was bluffing or had it.

Set Value

In short: you're dealt a pocket pair and the villain raises — is it worth calling to try to hit your set on the flop, or is folding better? Implied odds math, in practice.

You're dealt a pocket pair (22 through TT) and the villain raises before you.
Decide: is it worth calling to try to hit your set on the flop (11.76% chance, ~1 in 8.5), or is folding better?
The correct answer uses implied odds: it compares the price of the call against the effective stack left after, not just the current pot.
Easy shows the math worked out (price, stack, breakeven); Hard only shows the table — you calculate it yourself.
After deciding, see whether your answer was Sound, Marginal or Insufficient, and what actually happened in the hand.

Uses the same thresholds as the Pocket Pairs study (a 7.5x multiple for the "clean" breakeven and 10x for "safe") — same ruler, just drilled hand by hand instead of read off a report.

The Free plan limit

On Free, each game has its own daily limit: up to 20 in Openings, 10 in Range Read, 10 in Bluff Catcher, and 10 in Set Value. Each counter resets the next day and does not consume the other games' quota. Pro and Max unlock everything unlimited across all 4, plus HU and 9-max in Openings.

Common questions

Is it a GTO solver? Openings is preflop fundamentals training (at 100bb), with the solver's frequency — without the weight of a postflop solver. The other 3 games use real hands from the pool (not a solver) — the "answer key" is what the villain actually held, not an optimal solution.
Where do the hands for Range Read, Bluff Catcher and Set Value come from? From the pool of hands already imported by customers that went to showdown (Range Read/Bluff Catcher) or had a preflop raise against a pocket pair (Set Value) — always anonymous, never identifying who played them.
Why can I only train 6-max on Free (Openings)? HU and 9-max are Pro. 6-max, which is what most people play, stays free.
Does the depth (stack) change in training? In Openings it's fixed at 100bb; to study other depths (40–200bb), use the Ranges viewer.
