Every hand, a second opinion.

GTO (Game Theory Optimal) training teaches you to make mathematically balanced poker decisions. Instead of relying on gut instinct, you learn the strategies that no opponent can consistently beat. Poker Sense makes this accessible by explaining the reasoning behind each decision in plain English, not just showing you charts and numbers.

After every training hand, you can tap "Ask Why" to start a conversation with your AI coach. The coach explains why a specific action is the best play using the actual strategy data for that exact situation: your cards, the board, positions, and chip stacks. You can ask follow-up questions like "What if there were more hearts on the board?" or "Why is checking better than betting here?" and get clear, conversational answers.

You should know the basics of Texas Hold'em: hand rankings, how betting rounds work, and what positions mean. Beyond that, Poker Sense is designed to meet you where you are. The AI coach explains poker concepts in plain language and adjusts to your level of understanding. It's built for the smart recreational player who wants to improve, not for professional grinders.

Poker Sense is built for recreational players who want to understand strategy, not just memorize charts. Our AI coaching explains the "why" behind every decision in a natural conversation.

No. Poker Sense is a training tool designed for study and practice away from the table. Using any solver or training tool during live play is cheating and violates the terms of every poker site. Our system is designed for training sessions, not real-time assistance. See our Fair Play Policy for details.

The free tier gives you 20 training hands per day, 3 AI coaching conversations, access to Smart and Focused training modes covering pre-flop play and single-raised pots on the flop, and 3 whole hands a day in Play a Hand mode. That's enough to build a daily training habit and see how the product works. When you're ready for more, the Basic plan at $9.99/month unlocks 100 hands per day, 10 coaching conversations, turn and river streets, position filtering, Play a Hand mode in every post-flop pot type with no separate limit, and the spots the free tier leaves out: 3-bet pots, 4-bet pots, limped pots, and pre-flop play facing limpers.

Pro subscribers get a Stats page with three views: a Dashboard showing accuracy trends and training streaks over time, a History browser for reviewing past sessions, and a Leaks tab that identifies your weakest areas by position, street, and pot type. Each weakness includes a "Practice this" button that starts a targeted training session. All tiers get a session summary after each training session.

Our strategies are computed using a state-of-the-art poker algorithm, the same class used by professional-grade tools. The results are accurate to within 0.5% of optimal play. The strategies cover millions of poker situations across different positions, chip stacks, and board cards.

We use your training history to track your progress and identify weaknesses in your game, but we never share individual user data.

Poker Sense offers four training modes. Smart mode automatically picks a variety of spots, weighting toward the areas where you need the most work, so you improve at every part of the game. Focused mode lets you choose exactly what to train: select your streets, pot types, and positions. In Play a Hand mode you play whole hands against an opponent who follows the solver's strategy. The mode grades every decision you make, not whether you win the pot. The free tier includes 3 whole hands a day in single-raised pots. On Basic, whole hands have no separate limit and simply count toward your 100 hands a day, and Pro has no daily limit. Exploit & Recover mode (Pro only) deals hands where your opponent's range is narrow, where your own range is narrow, or where you're facing limpers. All modes are available from the training page.
