## What is Stoa Poker Trainer?

Stop guessing at the poker table. Start deciding.

Stoa Poker is a structured training app that teaches you how to think through a hand, from the cards you play to the size of your bet. You learn one skill at a time and practice one decision at a time.

HOW IT WORKS

Twelve skills take you from knowing the rules to knowing what to do with them. Each skill teaches one decision:

1. Opening Hands: which hands to raise with from each position
2. Position Awareness: why acting last gives you an edge
3. Blind Defense: when to fight back from the blinds
4. Non-Blind Defense: whether to call, 3-bet or fold when someone raises in front of you
5. Facing Limpers: how to punish weak open-limps
6. Board Reading: how to read the flop, turn and river quickly
7. Outs, Equity, and Pot Odds: the Rule of 2 and 4, made simple
8. Value Betting & Bet Sizing: how much to bet, and why
9. Opponent Types: how to spot and exploit nits, TAGs, LAGs and calling stations
10. Bluffing & Semi-Bluffing: when a bluff makes money
11. Full-Hand Integration: how the skills work together across complete hands
12. Range Thinking Lite: how to think about the range of hands an opponent could hold

WHY STOA POKER

Most poker training is a solver that needs a math degree, free videos with no practice, or a course that costs $50 to $200 a month. Stoa Poker gives you structured practice on real decisions at a lower price.

• Interactive drills: every lesson is a decision you make, with no videos or articles to sit through
• Instant feedback: each answer tells you whether it was right and explains why
• Spaced repetition: decisions you missed come back for review
• Mastery tracking: your progress in every skill, in one place
• Hand review: your recent decisions, so you can see where you went wrong

WHO IT'S FOR

Stoa Poker is for home-game players who know the rules and want a system for their decisions. If you often finish a hand asking yourself "what was I thinking?", start here. It isn't for players who don't know the hand rankings yet, or for advanced players studying solver output for high-stakes online games.

PRICING

Skills 1 and 2 are free. To unlock all 12, subscribe for $9.99 a month or $59.99 a year. New subscribers get a 7-day free trial. The monthly plan costs less than a typical home-game buy-in.

FROM THE CREATOR

I built Stoa Poker after watching good players make the same bad decisions for years. They cared about the game, but nobody had taught them a framework for it. This app is that framework.

Stoa Poker is a strategy training app. It involves no real money and no gambling.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.1.3 — 2026-11-06

Cloud Progress Storage, which backs up your progress to your account, now uses Firebase's updated software. When it connects, the app checks a certificate to confirm it has reached Firebase's servers. That check no longer accepts certificates issued by the eMudhra certificate authorities whose keys were compromised. Skills, drills and grading are unchanged.

### 1.1.2 — 2026-10-27

Sign-in, Connect Email and delete-account emails now each have their own subject and say what their link does. If an earlier email to your address bounced or was marked as spam, the app now says so and how to get it unblocked. Skills, drills and grading are unchanged.

### 1.1.1 — 2026-10-26

Stoa Poker is smaller on iPhone and iPad. It now asks Apple's App Attest service to confirm it is a genuine copy on a real device, a check that changes nothing you see. Skills, drills and grading are unchanged.

### 1.1.0 — 2026-10-22

- Feedback now explains every graded answer: the spot, what matters, the rule behind it, and the right play.
- New drills in Skills 7, 9, 10 and 12: estimate your equity, read an opponent's type, and size your bets.
- Full hands: opponents raise and check-raise, and bet sizes are graded. Free Play opponents now follow the skills you've mastered, with three-way pots after Skills 9 and 10. Change this in More.
- Fixes to grading, saved drill scores and small-screen layouts.

### 1.0.0 — 2026-10-20

No release notes.
