Satellite Your Way Into the Main - Free Tips!

Satellite poker tournaments are a great way to play a larger buy-in event at a lower price so you don’t need to have big bucks to be in contention for a game-changing score. Strategies for Satellites can be very different from a normal Tournament. LearnWPT is here to help increase your edge with key adjustments for satellite play.

Should You Play a 🛰️ Satellite Differently?

Yes! Approaching satellite play with the same strategy used in a regular poker tournament will often result in you busting when you would otherwise have a seat to the target tournament locked up.

Watch this Strategy Episode from LearnWPT Instructor Nick Binger as he discusses the key strategic adjustments you need to make when playing Satellite Poker Tournaments.

Check Out These Keys 🗝️ to Satellite Play

• Everyone gets paid the same prize
• No incentive to build a large stack once you are likely to win a seat
• As the probability of winning a win a seat goes up, your ranges in all spots tighten up
• There are times in a satellite poker tournament when players should never continue against an all-in
• Satellites are the only form of poker where it can be correct to fold pocket Aces preflop
• Pay very close attention to stack sizes and level changes!
• Often in the satellite endgame 10BBs may be a big stack that is guaranteed to win a seat

Use these strategies to sharpen your focus and maybe you’ll turn a few bucks into a huge payday.

3 Tips for Bounty Poker Tournament Play

Bounty Poker Tournaments are a fun way to add variety to your poker tournament schedule. The real money bounty awarded for knocking out each player creates extra action plus it gives entrants a chance to win cash in most cases without needing to finish inside the bubble.

The hottest innovation in bounty poker that is causing great excitement amount players is the Lottery Style Bounty Tournament.

In this type of event (more commonly known as a Mystery Bounty or Bounty Confidential) players who make Day 2 and eliminate a player draw an envelope with the bounty amount hidden inside. Bounty amounts range from slightly less than a buy-in, all the way to 50 times the buy-in based on the total number of tournament entries.

To maximize your chances at grabbing a massive bounty there are specific strategy reminders you should keep top of mind during your next Lottery Style bounty event. Check out LearnWPT Instructor and Poker Legend Andrew “LuckyChewy” Lichtenberger’s 3 key lessons for Lottery Style Bounty Tournaments below:

➧ Lesson #1: Making Day 2 in a Lottery Style Bounty Tournament is very important, but getting there with a big stack is critical to maximizing return on investment. Take thinner edges on Day 1 and focus on spots to accumulate chips before you reach the money so that you can have a better shot at accumulating bounties once you are in the money.

➧ Lesson #2: Bounties usually make up roughly one third of the prize pool. They are of most value when the average bounty amount in dollars is larger than the minimum cash and quite a bit larger than any pay jumps. Keeping track of which larger bounties have been won already is essential to making the highest expected value decisions in these types of events.

➧ Lesson #3: As the average bounty value decreases and you get deeper in the tournament where the prize money and associated pay jumps in the actual prize pool are larger than the average bounty amount, winning a bounty should be much less of an important factor in your decision making. Where previously you might have made a thin call to potentially win a huge bounty, you should instead evaluate this spot in terms of your overall tournament.

Ready for the Final Table? Test Your Skills!

To make sure you are prepared to shine for the cameras and show off your skills, we’ve got some important strategies to share to help you get ready. Final Table Strategy can differ dramatically from the early stages of a tournament, especially with huge pay-jumps and the prestige that only comes with winning a World Poker Tour title.

Often players are unprepared for the pressure that comes with playing in front of an audience and for potentially life-changing money at stake. When you are facing the pressure of big pay jumps and the studio lights seem just a little too bright, it’s important to stay focused and make objective decisions.

Can You Stay Aggressive at a Final Table?

You are at the $3,500 WPT Rolling Thunder Final Table. You min-raise 2BBs on the Button with a 30BB stack and the Big Blind with 50BBs calls. Click below to play a free Final Table sample pack of this spot from the WPT GTO Trainer to see firsthand how decisions change at the final table.

See how close you get to 0 EV Loss and high percentage plays. After playing, get YOUR score and read the strategy and theory behind the correct plays from the LearnWPT Pros.

Tips To Sharpen Up Your Game for Showtime

• Be aware of stack sizes and pay jumps at all times, even the slightest changes in stack sizes can shift strategy dramatically
• When short stacks exist, there is extra pressure on the bigger stacks to avoid busting out
• The chip leaders can use this extra pressure to win many pots while the short stack is in play
• As a medium stack vs larger stacks be cautious with any bets and raises and try to take marginal hands to showdown passively
• Preflop ranges shift quite a bit at final tables due to this effect with big stacks playing much wider ranges and medium stacks much narrower ranges
• Do not be afraid to ramp up your aggression against players that are playing tight in the hopes of laddering up

🙋What Our Members Say About LearnWPT Digital Platform?🙋‍♀

It's Never Too Late to Win Gold!🏆

Susan Faber, a 71-year-old tax accountant that enjoys playing poker as a hobby, showed up to the 50th WSOP event with the goal of enjoying herself and being competitive. When the dust settled Sue navigated the massive 2000+ player field and collected her first WSOP bracelet, with a $500 buy-in event with a $121,161 first place prize.

Susan chose this event due to it being a Salute to Warriors No-Limit Hold’em event, where an impressive amount of $43,075 was raised for charity. After being introduced to online poker 10 years ago by her son, Sue’s interest in the game peaked and she started looking for classes where she could improve. That’s when Sue found the LearnWPT workshop training events held live in Las Vegas.

Sue’s plan for success includes using LearnWPT membership features to up her game. Specific tasks for improvement include reviewing Strategy Episodes, focusing on adding new strategies to improve, and incorporating Jared Tendler's Mental Game strategies to handle big losses. She now relies on learning and memorizing the opening hand ranges, helping to free up mental energy to focus on her next moves, as well as using board texture to make consistent betting decisions

After dominating the final table, Susan stated that LearnWPT has given her the skills and confidence needed to win the bracelet, and that she would be coming back.

‘The Couple That Plays Together, Stays Together’👫

Lisa and Scott Roberts, known as Team Roberts, have been married for 37 years and have a true passion for the game of poker. Since beginning their poker journey Scott and Lisa have earned $125,000 in poker tournament winnings.

Scott and Lisa are super-students of LearnWPT, having attended several Live and Digital LearnWPT Workshops, acquiring knowledge and powering them to several huge wins. Team Roberts has amassed a list of impressive results including Scott winning the WSOP Circuit $400 event in Florida for $6,994, and Lisa earning second place in a $250 seniors event for $5,284, as well as taking sixth in a $600 turbo for $2,100. Scott also amassed enough points with several deep finishes to be named the player of the series.

Scott is quick to reveal that he and Lisa didn't realize how much they didn't know about the game until discovered LearnWPT Live Workshops and the interactive LearnWPT.com training platform, where the platform instructors and professional poker players Nick Binger and Andrew Lichtenberger 'opened their eyes up'.

With Nick Binger's advice on building aggression into your game which included playing to raise on the button every time action folded to them regardless of the cards they had, as well as to 4-bet if one of the blinds 3-bet, the couple stepped out of their comfort zone and incorporated a more bold and assertive strategy to their game.

The instructors' guidance definitely paid off. The exact week that Nick Binger provided the eye-opening strategy advice, Lisa made the final table and both she and Scott made $10,000 playing tournaments. Both members of Team Roberts mentioned the specific manner in which LearnWPT has influenced their game. Lisa has embraced a more aggressive approach, and Scott has learned to adjust his game to various scenarios, with both of them learning how to maximize their profits.

Crediting LearnWPT for shaping them into a winning team, Lisa has stated that the platform classes are the best poker money they have ever spent, and they plan to continue their LearnWPT journey.

LearnWPT Student Bryant Seeing the Skills He Has Acquired Pay Off!

Bryant Morrison, a passionate and life-long poker player, recently won his first WSOP Circuit Ring in the Seniors Event at the Choctaw Durant stop, receiving an impressive $13,948 for a $250 buy-in.

A LearnWPT Platinum Member, Bryant attended two LearnWPT Live Workshops, which, according to him, have helped him understand the game better and attain a greater strategy.

The significance of participating in both workshops with fellow players trying to improve their game, and direct access to have your play observed and get immediate feedback from instructors and professional poker players, is integral in Bryant’s growth as a player. The flexibility of on-demand access and comprehensive selection of content has helped him sharpen his game much better than simply playing poker.

The key feature that drives Bryant’s success is the WPT GTO Trainer. By practicing vs the world’s perfect poker opponent, Bryant developed strategies and patterns needed to minimize his losses and maximize expected value which shaped him into a skilled player capable of identifying those same scenarios at the tables and executing the moves when the pressure is on.

Through small amounts of consistent effort over time studying and practicing LearnWPT game plan, Bryant’s perspective on poker has changed dramatically, thinking of stack size as BBs and always knowing where he is in the tournament.

As for aspiring players improving their No-Limit Hold’em game, Bryant once again recommends using the WPT GTO trainer. The ability to play and practice on your own time and schedule, as opposed to having to travel to a casino is key to developing a steady practice routine and measuring your improvement.

Making History Winning Rings and Casino Championships!

Manju G. managed to make history by becoming the 1st woman to win a WSOP Circuit ring at Thunder Valley Resort Casino. She credits the LearnWPT workshop she attended at Commerce Casino for providing her both with the needed confidence and a strategic blueprint required to manage different poker tournament sections, allowing her to cash in more times in the last 7 months than all of last year and earning her the title of the Casino Champion and a free $10,000 seat.

Yves F. is a long-time LearnWPT member who made use of his interactive experience at a LearnWPT Live Workshop to run up a big cash game stack at Borgata by utilizing effective preflop strategies that work with a solid postflop game.

Yet another LearnWPT member, Rhode, from Wimauma, FL, began playing poker in 2015, with no strategy or understanding of the game. Motivated by LearnWPT commercials during a televised broadcast of the World Poker Tour, Rhode decided to join LearnWPT. After just a few video lessons and attending a LearnWPT workshop, Rhode was able to win 2 cruise ship tournaments, the second one valued at $3800, as well as a $750 entry into the $100,000 tournament on the new cruise. In 2017, he played 71 tournaments, 11 of which he won, adding 8 more cashes.

Last but not least, LearnWPT members Tazo and Shirley, from Las Vegas, NV, who are retired and jokingly say that they have more than 150 years combined, have taken up playing tournaments and learning poker strategies. Tazo and Shirley are dedicated students and subscribers to LearnWPT and due to their following the LearnWPT curriculum both cash consistently, in 30-35% range, playing 300+ tournaments last year. Having fun while doing it, as well as reviving and strengthening their poker game, Tazo and Shirley are proud to share how the LearnWPT game-plan has changed their lives drastically.

WPT Final Table Play with Tony Dunst

To make sure you are prepared to shine for the TV cameras and show off your skills, we’ve got some important strategies to share to help you get ready.

Final Table Strategy can differ dramatically from the early stages of a tournament, especially with huge pay-jumps and the prestige that only comes with winning a World Poker Tour title. Often players are unprepared for the pressure that comes with playing in front of an audience and for potentially life-changing money at stake.

When you are facing the pressure of big pay jumps and the studio lights seem just a little too bright, it’s important to stay focused and make objective decisions.

Watch this LearnWPT Strategy Episode from LearnWPT Instructor and WPT Commentator Tony Dunst for key insights on how the Pros perform on the big stage.

Here are a few tips to help sharpen up your game for showtime!

• Be aware of stack sizes and pay jumps at all times, even the slightest changes in stack sizes can shift strategy dramatically
• When short stacks exist, there is extra pressure on the bigger stacks to avoid busting out
• The chip leaders can use this extra pressure to win many pots while the short stack is in play
• As a medium stack vs larger stacks be cautious with any bets and raises and try to take marginal hands to showdown passively
• Preflop ranges shift quite a bit at final tables due to this effect with big stacks playing much wider ranges and medium stacks much narrower ranges
• Do not be afraid to ramp up your aggression against players that are playing tight in the hopes of laddering up

Not 1, Not 2, But 3 Final Tables

The WPT Prime, World, and Ladies Championship Final Tables will be filmed for Television in the Wynn Encore Ballroom!

➧ WPT Ladies Championship: TV Final Table - Sunday, Dec 18th
➧ WPT Prime Championship: TV Final Table - Monday, Dec 19th

Battling From the Blinds With Brian Altman

Practicing your play from the Blinds will have a dramatic impact on your tournament results, particularly in higher buy-in tournaments with tougher competition. Facing aggressive late position opponents with marginal hands, especially hands containing an ace with a weak kicker, often result in players making huge mistakes.

3x World Poker Tour Champion and WPT Player of the Year Brian Altman is no stranger to tough battles playing from the blinds against the world’s best poker players.

Watch this LearnWPT Strategy Episode as Brian details his strategy from this spot from a $5,300 event at Seminole Hard Rock Hollywood to demonstrate championship play from the Big Blind facing an aggressive and tricky player on the Button.

Tony Dunst on Broadway

Broadway hands (any 2 card combo that can make an A-K-Q-J-T straight) are often preferred combos for taking aggressive actions like raising first-in to the pot and 3-betting. While sometimes the approach to play these hands can seem straightforward, there are often very close decisions with hands even as strong as top pair particularly when stacks are shallow.

LearnWPT Instructor Tony Dunst played 3 key hands during a WPT Main Event at Seminole Hard Rock Hollywood, and he took some time to break down the unique lessons from each spot.

Check out this Strategy Episode to learn the importance of position and SPR (Stack to Pot Ratio) when it comes to playing broadway hands as both the initial raiser and by defending the blinds. Tony shows you how the strategy shifts based on the situation and how a WPT Champion breaks down these spots to improve their play.

Final Table Tips From Champions

Final Table Strategy can differ dramatically from the early stages of a tournament, especially with huge pay-jumps and the prestige that only comes with winning a World Poker Tour title.

Often players are unprepared for the pressure that comes with playing in front of an audience and how your decision making is affected with potentially life-changing money at stake.

While it's difficult to recreate the pressure of performing with the eyes of the world on you, you can start practicing now to succeed at the final table when it matters most.

Here are a few tips to help sharpen up your game for showtime!

➧ Be aware of stack sizes and pay jumps at all times, even the slightest changes in stack sizes can shift strategy dramatically
➧ When short stacks exist, there is extra pressure on the bigger stacks to avoid busting out
➧ The chip leaders can use this extra pressure to win many pots while the short stack is in play
➧ As a medium stack vs larger stack you should be cautious with any bets and raises and try to take marginal hands to showdown passively
➧ Preflop ranges shift quite a bit at final tables due to this effect, with big stacks playing much wider ranges and medium stacks much narrower ranges
➧ Do not be afraid to ramp up your aggression against players that are playing tight in the hopes of laddering up

3-Bet Defense With The 3x Champ

3x World Poker Tour Champion and WPT Player of the Year Brian Altman has spent over a decade refining his skills and training for championship moments. His attacking style and ability to make quick decisions under pressure are key factors to closing out tournaments.

At the core of Brian’s exceptional decision making is his ability to observe opponent tendencies and adjust his play to exploit them and maximize value. Staying present in the moment and identifying these slight deviations in your opponent’s playing style are essential to conquering high stakes tournaments.

Watch this LearnWPT Strategy Episode as Brian breaks down a 3-bet pot with Ace Queen suited from the $3,500 WPT Lucky Hearts Poker Open where opponent info plays a big part.

Brian’s Tips for Defending 3-Bet Pots:

➧ Opponent Tendencies: Is this 3-betting range likely to be wide or narrow? How skilled are they postflop?
➧ Stack Depth: At medium stack depths (around 50-60BBs) it is sometimes better to trap than 4-bet shove
➧ Staying Balanced: Flat with some premium hands (suited combos are often best to defend by calling) in order to balance vs bluffs

Play Ace King Like a Legend

The thrill of looking down at your hole cards to see Ace King is often quickly followed by anxiety.

What raise size should you use preflop? Should you continuation bet if there is no Ace or King on the flop? How much should you bet?

Some players get so frustrated they may resort to only push/fold with AK, even with huge stacks. We’ve all got our horror stories with Ace King, however if you are focusing on the right factors your decisions with Big Slick can be much simpler.

Tune in to this Strategy Episode from LearnWPT Instructor and poker phenom Andrew “LuckyChewy” Lichtenberger for a strategic breakdown of how to approach different flops with Ace King offsuit after you are the preflop raiser.

The next time you're faced with a tough flop decision, use the info from this Episode and you’ll have much less stress with AK.

1. a group of people living in the same place or having a particular characteristic in common.
2. a feeling of fellowship with others, as a result of sharing common attitudes, interests, and goals.

Each of us is part of a particular community, and the importance of belonging to a community of people who share your interests can’t be measured. Every person longs for belonging. We all want to feel that we belong and have a sense of identity with our community, whether it be large or small.

A community can mean so many things depending on how each individual experiences it. People often feel a sense of togetherness and belonging when they are around peers who share similar interests. This feeling often leads to a deeper connection between community members and greater enjoyment of their common interests - in this case, the love of poker!

The best players in the game today share ideas and collaborate with their peers within a trusted poker community to improve their play and elevate their game.

A poker community is a group of people who have come together to have fun learning and improving while supporting each other along the way. The common love of poker and the shared desire to help each other find a way for all members to grow their game in a safe and friendly place is the foundation of a community like ours.

The ability to have a community dedicated to poker where you can share experiences, mistakes, practice with each other and share advice, is just as valuable for the new poker player as it is for the aspiring professionals who are passionate about their game and want to improve it.sharing storie

We know that one of the most challenging aspects of improving your poker game is the feeling of being alone on your journey and not having a team (or, better yet, a community) to support your poker goals.

That's why we created the LearnWPT Community!

The desire for community is universal, and many find their place in groups that share a common passion or idea. There is something extraordinary about being a part of a group of people who share something they feel passionately about.

So, are you playing poker and wondering how being part of a poker community can help you grow and become a better player?

Or, you are already aware of all the benefits but you are not sure how to join and become part of this massive poker family?

No matter where you are in your poker journey, answers to any poker questions you might have can be found on The LearnWPT Community Forums. Our community members ask questions daily and get advice, feedback, and real strategy help they can put into action.

We wanted all LearnWPT Members to have the same positive feedback loop and community with the top pros in the game to help them improve and upgrade their play. The LearnWPT Community we created is a safe place, full of passionate poker players who desire to learn, achieve, and have fun achieving their goals.

The LearnWPT Community forum provides an open platform for poker enthusiasts to engage in deep discussions about all things related to the game. Whether you're looking for help with your strategy or want someone else's take on how they won a hand, there are plenty of poker players just like you waiting here who will be happy (and more than willing) to share their thoughts!

How can YOU benefit from being part of a Community of YOUR peers and Instructors?

For many aspiring players, the path to becoming better at poker begins with understanding just exactly what they can improve. When you are starting on the path to learning poker you will have many questions and most likely you won’t know a person with suitable knowledge to discuss these with you.

Well… do you have questions about your poker game like these:

• What exactly does the term “straddle” mean and is it profitable in your live $1-2 game?
• After I raised preflop from the SB I wasn’t sure if the best play here was to continue or just check. See my attached HIT hand. Thanks for any input and thoughts…
• After downloading the first-in hand range charts, does anyone have tips for memorizing the ranges. Does anyone bring them to the tables with them as a guide?
• After watching Episode #316 today I have a couple questions related to the second hand played where Nick had JJ…
• Traveling to Vegas … best place for cash live poker 1/2 or 1/3?

These are just some of the questions Members are asking and getting answers to in The LearnWPT Community Forums.

The LearnWPT Community forums provide a space for members to get feedback, advice, and in-depth strategy help for any poker topics you want to explore. Participate in these discussions and learn new ideas and help your fellow members learn more about poker while growing your own game.

Do you love to talk about all things poker? The LearnWPT community is here for you.

Join in discussions on Cash and Tournament concepts or anything related to this game we love so much in the General Discussion forum.

The Community is a safe place for students of the game to join fellow LearnWPT Members (and our Pros!) to create that loop and:

• Discuss concepts or issues they are encountering on the path to being a better player. Have you ever tried to learn something but found it difficult? You might be surprised at how many people have had similar experiences.
• Receive feedback from peers on how they played a hand. Feedback from peers will help you improve your decision-making when playing hands, and it's important to observe the play and analysis to unlock new perspectives in your game plan.
• Find answers about strategy and concepts they are unsure of. LearnWPT Instructors Eric "Rizen" Lynch and Andrew "LuckyChewy" Lichtenberger visit the community to answer questions and join Member discussions!
• Expand their poker feedback loop to develop a continuous process for improvement. The community can help players identify what needs to be improved in their own game and provide valuable feedback and advice on how to make meaningful changes and master their game.
• Talk all things poker related!

The LearnWPT Community is a great place for professionals to expand their poker feedback loop and develop continuous process improvement through discussion. Post and discuss ideas with other members, or share some of yours! We're excited to hear from you!

Are You Calling Too Often on The River?

Running deep in a poker tournament with big money on the line requires many tough decisions, especially on the river when the pot is likely the largest. If you aren’t paying attention to how your opponent’s range can change throughout the hand, you’ll likely be in some super tough spots.

Facing tough river decisions is more common in poker tournaments with deep structures and against more skilled players. In many cases, your tournament will come down to how effective your observation skills are and how you use an opponent’s actions to narrow their range.

Watch this Strategy Episode from LearnWPT Instructor and WPT Commentator Tony Dunst as he walks through hands played during a Tournament Series at The Venetian Resort Las Vegas to review some river leaks.

Here are 3 Key Takeaways to help you play better on the river:

• Avoid leading rivers when you have an opponent's range dominated - checking is likely to induce bluffing
• Just because you are at the top of your range, it doesn’t mean your opponent has to be bluffing when they raise on the river
• River raises in multiway pots almost always indicate the nuts - most players do not risk their stack on zero equity bluffs multiway

Can You Fold Pocket Aces Here?

To win poker tournaments you have to make your fair share of big hands and have the skill to get your opponent to put the money in when you have the best of it. However, it's not only about the hands you win... it is often about the times when you choose to throw your two cards into the muck.

Do you have what it takes to fold the best starting hand in poker, deep in the later stages of a high stakes poker tournament?

Sure it sounds crazy to even consider, however if you don’t have the mindset and clarity to recognize even when the best hand in poker is beat and get away with minimal damage to your stack, you won’t be getting heads up for the title often.

So how do you know when to let go of pocket rockets and preserve your stack for a better spot?

Watch and learn as poker legend Andrew “LuckyChewy” Lichtenberger walks you through a key spot late in a $10K buy-in where he had the skill to fold pocket aces on the flop. and breaks down the key factors to his decision.
