Want access to world-class quality poker training at a price you can afford?

Well now you can, thanks to the latest course from Phil Galfond and Run It Once. "Foundations" is a five-hour course broken down into 49 digestible, shorter videos that each cover a concept or topic. Whether you're looking to revisit the fundamentals, or even get to grips with poker for the first time, this course is perfect for a variety of different players.

The course includes Preflop Charts and 3 bonus PDFs explaining Poker Basics, Poker Math Made Easy, and Bankroll Management, with course purchases also able to opt in to a FREE month of our Essential program ($25/month normally) to continue their study.

Why Foundations?

In today’s landscape, most players learn poker in a fragmented way. Hand histories from streams and YouTube, preflop charts from one source, a flop c-bet strategy from another. While these pieces of knowledge will help you improve your short-term win rate, without a strong foundation you can’t become a consistent winner at higher stakes.
