Don’t sit there unsure on how to improve your poker game a moment longer. Take these three steps and make October 2016 the moment you take action to catapult your poker game to heights you never thought possible. 

Here’s three things to do right now to learn the skills you need, see where you stand in relation to others then where to play where good play can bring great rewards.


Step 1 - Try PokerSnowie

You wouldn’t go into a boxing ring before learning to punch and how to defend yourself, so the first thing to do is get some poker training under your belt. 

Poker training software PokerSnowie will assess your every move with instant feedback and rate your play. It will give you a list of your errors so you can realize what you did wrong then instantly get feedback so you can put it right. You will learn whether to check, bet, raise or fold and if you should bet, how large or small to make it. Pokersnowie will wring out the errors from your poker game like water being squeezed from a sponge. 

If you play No Limit, PokerSnowie can help you, that’s all there is to it. Check it out here.



Step 2 - Use 888’s ‘Place in pack game’

After you’ve got some training under your belt, it’s time to check how you compare to others. Use 888’s ‘What’s Your Place In The Pack’ game to find out. It asks you a number of questions and once the quiz is completely you get 888’s assessment of your current standing in the game.

You will be given a label out of a Rock, Fish, Maniac, Bully or Shark then you access tips for success from 888 once you are rated.

888 also provide links to a comprehensive guide on poker psychology so you can build a metagame that matches the level of your technical ability. 



Step 3 - Test Your Skills in the OnlinePokerLeague (OPL)

Now that you have completed steps 1 and 2, it’s time to play and where better than ‘The Online Poker League’ where you play in tournaments with buy-ins of between $3-$5 and where your top 10 results will go towards your league standing. A league table doesn’t lie, so if you finish first you are the best, it’s as simple as that. Each tournament has 50-100 buy-ins added on top of the prize pool and they are also giving away $35,000 in cash and merchandise.

Visit the website for full details on how to get involved. If you’ve completed these three steps, you’re ready and you will be a better player than when you started.

Good luck in capturing the OPL title and hopefully some great prizes along the way.
