PTO Poker is a hybrid between poker strategy/intangibles education, performance optimization, and mindset coaching. It includes clips from coaching sessions to help players in many areas of the game. My content always addresses the tough questions and seeks to tackle some of the most challenging aspects of poker, both on and off the felt.

Short attention span? Check out these YouTube shorts on two critical topics:

I just posted two new YouTube shorts on very different topics, both of which will be valuable for most players:

1) What should you do when a solver recommends a mixed strategy? This video argues that randomizing like a solver is stupid.

2) Why is it important to stick to a 3 buy-in stop-loss? This video explains that tilt isn't what you think it is and that leaving the table after losing 3 buy-ins is often your best course of action.

I was asked two great questions that made me do some reflecting. Come check out the videos here:

1) Should I use Reverse Tells in Poker? This video makes the point that engaging in silly gimmicks will only cost you money in the long run.

2) What is a Poker Leak That Coach Joel Struggles With? In this video, I open up about a side of myself that has the potential to cost me at the poker tables if I'm not careful.

Do you struggle with knowing what to do when you are card dead in poker or during other times of inactivity? This video from PTO Poker provides some tips and explains how a meditation practice away from the table can be a separator when nothing appears to be happening.

Do your opponents perceive you as very tight at the poker table? This video shows a wild, cold 4-bet hand where looks can be deceiving. The video also distinguishes between true value bets and bets that are too thin and lead to problems when called.
