How Hold'em Coach works
From your very first lesson to long-term improvement.
01 · Your table, your pace
Pick your casino
Lucky Palms, Reno Grand, Vegas Royal — different limits and vibes. Free refills, a daily bonus, and optional rewarded ads for extra practice chips. New to the game? Coach Academy sits right at the top of the lobby.
02 · Learn & level up
A full Coach Academy
Nine bite-sized lessons — from hand rankings and the core bets to counting dealer outs, reading win odds, and disciplined strategy. Some are quick guides; others drop you into a scripted hand at the table. Complete each once to earn practice chips, up to 4,000 in all.
03 · Know what beats what
Fundamentals made clear
Guided lessons walk you through the essentials — like hand rankings from a straight up to four of a kind — with real card examples, so you're never guessing where your hand stands.
04 · At the table
Coach on every street
See what to do before you tap: Bet 4x, Bet 2x, Check, or Fold — with a short reason. Choose UTH Basic Strategy or Disciplined Strategy in Settings.
05 · The payoff
Cash in the big hands
When a monster lands — like four Aces — betting 4x pre-flop turns it into a massive pot. See exactly how much your bolder call beat the coach's baseline.
06 · After the hand
Review every hand
Open a full debrief: final board, payouts, and street-by-street coaching notes so every mistake turns into a lesson.
07 · Over time
Track your progress
Session stats, win rate, net chips, and Coach Alignment — see how much you gain when you follow the coach versus when you deviate.
08 · Daily competition
Today's Leaderboard
Match the coach to earn Daily Stars. Top players each day claim practice-chip rewards and a rank badge. Open the ★ pill on the lobby or from the table menu.
09 · More practice time
Coach+
Optional subscription on iOS and Android — Ask Coach, 50,000 practice chips every day, and no interstitial ads while you're subscribed. Everything else stays free.
10 · Go deeper
Ask Coach
New in 1.5 for Coach+ subscribers. After Coach Debrief walks through the hand, tap Ask Coach to ask follow-up questions — why the coach raised on 4th street, what a different strategy profile would do, or how dealer outs change your decision. Built for Ultimate Texas Hold'em strategy, with a daily message allowance that resets at local midnight. Read the full 1.5 guide →
