We dropped Hold'em Coach 1.4 earlier this week with Coach+ — more chips, no interstitial ads, optional subscription. If you've been curious, now's a good time to try it: new subscribers get the standard 7-day free trial on both the App Store and Google Play.
What you get with Coach+
Two perks, that's the whole list:
- 50,000 practice chips a day — credited each local calendar day. Miss a day? They stack for when you come back.
- No interstitial ads — the full-screen ads after cash-out are gone while you're subscribed.
Rewarded ads for bonus chips still show up if you want them. Everything else is unchanged.
What's still free
Real talk: you don't need Coach+ to learn the game. All of this stays free:
- Live coaching on every street
- Coach Academy (all nine lessons)
- Hand debrief and street-by-street review
- Coach Report and Insights
- Today's Leaderboard and Daily Stars
- Free chip refills every 4 hours
- 2,000-chip daily login bonus
Coach+ is for people who play daily, chase leaderboard stars, or just hate mid-session ad breaks. Casual players? Free refills are probably fine.
Who it's for
- Daily grinders — 50K/day means you never run dry mid-session.
- Leaderboard hunters — more hands = more Daily Stars.
- Ad haters — stay in the zone without post-session interruptions.
Start the free trial
- Update Hold'em Coach to 1.4+ on iPhone or Android.
- Go to Chip Shop → Best Value.
- Pick Coach+ monthly or yearly — eligible new subscribers see the 7-day trial at checkout.
- Confirm through Apple or Google. You won't be charged until the trial ends.
Cancel anytime. iOS: Settings → [your name] → Subscriptions → Coach+. Android: Google Play → Payments & subscriptions → Subscriptions → Coach+. Cancel at least 24 hours before the trial ends if you don't want to renew. Chips you've already received stay in your bankroll.
Coach+ with the 7-day trial — Chip Shop or in-app promo.
Coach+ vs. the other options
Quick comparison:
- Free — learn and play with refills, bonuses, optional ads.
- Chip packs — one-time boost, no subscription.
- Remove Ads — one-time, kills interstitials forever.
- Coach+ — daily chips plus no interstitials while active.
Only care about ads? Remove Ads is cheaper long-term. Want chips too? Coach+ bundles both.
Worth trying?
If you've been playing free and hitting chip walls or ad fatigue, the trial costs nothing to test. Seven days is enough to see if the extra table time clicks for you. No pressure either way — the full game is free without it.
