Anyone know any good poker training sites?

I checked out Ivy League, but it seems overwhelming with how many videos there are. I personally am looking to improve my cash game skills. I'm looking to find good content to help specific areas of my game.

Are there any sites out there that make it simple with online training?

Well, I'll plug pokerzion.com because it's structured, and just for cash games. You get lessons e-mailed to you ever week, and there's plenty of loose content. There's not new content going up all the time. It's set courses that are maintained, and it works. It's inexpensive compared to most sites, so you get good value for your money.

RIO is for me the highest value one right now, CardRunners is another for sure.

While it is pretty obv from your undertitle. Its important to stress that this poster is linked to pokerzion so this is not an unbiased post.

lol... very important you pointed that out. I guess that's not clear based on my title. Let me be clear, I own pokerzion.com. There's no big TV names on the site, although we have bracelet winners. But the content is just as good or better as most top training sites at a fraction of the price. Most training sites cycle through players based on current results, who end up going broke, and there's a lot of bad content. We've never done that.

Training sites don't make much money anymore. It's just how the market has gone. I pretty much give away the content on there now to introduce people to other things we offer.

Not trying to start something and dont know anything about your content etc but on the point you raise about cycling through players.

Cycling through players is not a bad thing, people end up going broke for a variety of reason but when you use players based on current results you are going to end up with more modern thought processes. Surely you can recognise that the game changes with time and if you continue to use the same coaches youve had from the beginning there is a risk that the content becomes stale and doesnt keep up with the times.

Well, you raise an interesting point and maybe an interesting discussion. What has changed about the game in the last 3 years that isn't true today... last 5 years? last 10?

I think it depends on your starting point, and this is where the misnomer and false meme's start penetrating the poker market. If you were a player that crushed 10 years ago, nothing has really changed about the game. If you were an average or losing player back then, then a lot has changed.

3-betting, and 4-betting, understanding players ranges, balancing, etc... if you crushed back in the day, you understood all of that. What's changed is more of the regulars have training sites and books and everything explaining this to everyone. So the only thing that's changed is there's less fish at the table, and more knowledgeable regs.

But I do also hold that sustainability in a field translates to better teaching ability, generally speaking. A lot of training sites just grab currently hot players, without really listening to how they are thinking and approaching the game long term. The good regs adjust to their games (and I mean good mid and high stakes players), and then inevitably start crushing them once their hot run ends. I'm telling you in all seriousness, it accounts for a lot of the content. I've viewed it, I know these guys.

There's some good content out there on a lot of training sites, the problem is you have to REALLY weed through it because the meme is, you need constant new content, because the game is changing all the time. So they pump out new trash every day, and make it more difficult to find the gems.

I get what you're saying though, I completely do. I just respectfully disagree. I'd rather have 5 pieces of really good proven content, than 150 pieces of trash.
