Cash games basics at the Poker School

The beginning of professional poker can be extremely challenging, as profitable play requires an immense amount of knowledge and practice. Although we provide a wealth of useful information at the Poker School to ease the burden of the game, it can still be difficult to systematize and encompass it all. In this article, we present the best way to start your Cash game improvement journey and easily structure your learning.

Cash game basicsCash games basics can be learned using the Poker School's video and article library, theoretically, it is not difficult. The school has over 200 Cash games videos, each lasting from 25 to 50 minutes. You can also find numerous articles for all poker players of all formats. Unfortunately, such an amount of information is completely overwhelming for a beginner, and starting the learning path randomly is not a good choice. Often, learning randomly and without structure can lead to playing with many mistakes that may be unclear to a beginner.

Cash games coach Gediminas “RoundMidnight” Gefenas created a video to solve this problem. In it, he discusses the best Poker School Cash games videos for all players, but especially suitable for beginners and newcomers. Gediminas' selected videos cover very important aspects of Cash (and poker in general) – relative hand value, GTO and Nash equilibrium, and other very important concepts for a winning player.

For the convenience of reading and viewing, we provide direct links to the videos mentioned by Gediminas:

For players who want to continue improving in the Cash games field, we recommend using the Poker School's filtering system. Videos are divided into several categories according to the players' skill level:

  1. For beginners. These videos are intended for complete newcomers. They usually discuss poker concepts, room selection, and software usage.
  2. For novices. These videos mostly feature low-limit games and their analysis, deepening mathematical and theoretical knowledge.
  3. For advanced players. In these videos, you can find high-stakes games and deep game analysis, working with GTO programs.

These filters are designed for the convenience of Poker School members, as targeted use greatly facilitates the search for suitable videos and the creation of a learning structure. When creating a learning structure, it is most important not to rush too much and to learn the basics of poker well. There is no need to start watching videos for advanced Cash games players after the first few weeks. Watching such videos without strong Cash games basics can only increase the number of mistakes made and reduce profitability.
