Small Stakes Solutions

What Students Say

“A really instructive and mathematical-oriented way to approach the analysis of any PLO hand.”

Jordi Martinez, Barcelona, PLO 200

“Small Stakes Solutions helped me to spot leaks in lots of other players and gave me ideas how to exploit them. It also gave me lots of tools to work on my game by myself.”

Antti, Helsinki, PLO 200

“Phil loves PLO. This becomes obvious after a few minutes of talking to him or reading his blog. He also has a gift for taking complex ideas and breaking then down so anyone can understand them. Phil has spent countless hours studying this great game and if you’re like me and don’t have 20 hours a week to study Small Stakes Solutions is for you. This program not only teaches you the X’s and O’s, it teaches you how to think at the table and study away from it. ”

Brad Stampfl , United States, PLO 200

“The lectures contained content I had never seen elsewhere, and the strategies Phil recommends are comprehensively justified numerically throughout the course. The lectures are demanding, but also very interactive and enjoyable.

Lectures 1 and 2 give an in depth pre-flop game plan, while the later lectures focus on range construction for the most frequent postflop spots.

What I really liked about the course was each argument was presented clearly and backed mathematically, and has helped uncover many mistakes in my logic and play.”

Ankush Khandelwal, United Kingdom, PLO 100

“Lecture 4 probably improved my winrate the most. Barreling turn/river transitions was one of the things I wasn’t good at, because mostly I was doing it by ‘intuition’ (and since I’m quite risk averse, it lead to me to being too weak on the tables in many turn/river transition spots) and didn’t have strong theoretical backup for my plays. After studying this lecture and putting it to the test on the tables I was amazed by how much I was previously giving up in spots where I shouldn’t have and how many regs are like I used to be!

Overall, I would describe the course as super good investment for anyone and especially for ‘feel players’. All of the info was very practical, but backed up by numbers and theory, which weren’t too deep or hard to understand. It definitely made my game much stronger and accurate on all streets. It also gave me a good idea how to study on my own.”

Domas Karklys, Lithuania, PLO 200

“Having been a long time reader of the blog, I was familiar with some of the concepts in the Small Stakes Solutions course, but I came away from it all with a much better understanding for just how to apply them as well as a ton of material for further improvement to my game.

The series provides both instant plug-and-play type content (the first two lectures), which I felt almost immediately comfortable applying after some minor review, as well as some more theoretical content which will reward further work on your own.
