Start your chase for poker greatness here with these leading-edge courses:

Data-Driven Poker Courses With Actual Solutions For Preflop Play And All Three Streets

The Mass Data Analysis (MDA) Revolution has arrived.

CPG’s bleeding edge No Limit Texas Holdem cash game poker training curriculum is developed through MDA-driven analysis, drawn from millions of poker hands, to give you a max exploit roadmap to the land of +EV decision making at all stakes for implementation both online and live.

We’ve done the math. We’ve saved the receipts. We’ve hired literal mathematicians to identify mass data trends of the global poker player pool, and from that foundation we’ve built simple, data-proven situational actions that directly translate to profit at the poker table.

The benefit of providing these end result solutions to you right from the drop is that you can immediately start implementing these poker strategies into your game today and begin hardwiring this system upgrade right into your brain as you play until it becomes second nature. We feel that learning by doing is the best way to truly absorb poker knowledge and validate the results in realtime on the green felt.

Other programs are weighted toward a mix of subjective, oftentimes conflicting theory and a “do what these pros do” approach toward teaching. We believe these methods of teaching poker are ineffective delivery systems for retaining knowledge, and they do nothing to gain you actual experience in the process of your learning.

So we’ve spent considerable resources analyzing how poker players most effectively learn and absorb information, so that our courses and the process of your learning is optimized for full immersion and daily skill-building as you implement these solid solutions into your game.

CPG

No recurring monthly fees. No unnecessary filler content. No more rushing to get through everything before a pricy subscription lapses.

We sell solutions and you get what you pay for. Those solutions pay for themselves at the poker tables — guaranteed or your money back.

***large iron gate opening noise with sunrays appearing through clouds as cinematic score swells***

Welcome to Greatness Village: a community support network united in a shared pursuit of poker greatness!

It’s not uncommon to see CPG students form their own friendly breakout study sessions to push each other to “get good” and have a bit of social fun in the process.

Overseen by Brad Wilson himself, where he chimes in pretty much daily on every Slack channel he can, the Village is populated by associate CPG trainers who are experts in all CPG poker courses, online and live crushers who have been exactly where you are at some point in their own poker career, and most importantly, it’s populated by players just like you, sharing the same goals to improve at the game of poker!

Or something like that.

The Most Thought-Provoking Poker Podcast Featuring Top Pros & Inspirational Mindset Experts

Poker is more than just the act of playing it.

Poker is preparation for performance. Poker is management of mindset. Poker is study of the session. It’s an industry and it’s a game. It’s a competition and it’s a job. It’s an obsession and it’s light-hearted.

It all depends on your perspective.

It’s these perspectives and insights into poker philosophy, strategy, trends, landscape, history, future, and everything in between that Brad Wilson dutifully delves into with celebrated legends, visionaries, thinkers, dreamers, the old guard, and the next up on every episode of the Chasing Poker Greatness Podcast.

You can only learn so much from strategy and study. Poker is a game of mental and physical endurance, and a healthy relationship with the game is not easy to balance at all times. At some point in everyone’s poker career, there comes a time when you need reinvigoration, perspective, and reflection to get to the next level, or prevent yourself from falling to the last.

With over 200 podcast episodes and quickly counting, guests include Matt Berkey, Phil Hellmuth, DGAF, Nick Howard, Johnny Vibes, Kristen Bicknell, David Tuchman, Tommy Angelo, Matt Vaughan, Jonathan Little, Maria Konnikova, James Romero, Martin Jacobsen, Eli Elezra, Landon Tice, Greg Raymer, Marle Cordeiro, Norman Chad, PokerBunny, James Sweeney, The Poker Guys, Jungleman, and so many more.

Free Poker Training And Next-Level Strategy From Real Players In Real Hand Breakdowns

It costs you zero dollars to start your poker improvement.

We’re pretty sure we’re supposed to be charging for this stuff, but I guess nobody ever accused us of being brilliant businesspeople. We just love poker and helping players improve their poker game and having a few laughs in the process. And so CPG founder Brad Wilson and co-host Jon Chai turn Tuesdays into the most Tactical of days, to break down real-world hands and dissect the inner thought process and logical decision tree associated with playing profitable poker.

Now with more than 100 episodes, Tactical Tuesday is a free poker training video series of a tutor / student format, in which Brad reviews online and live poker hands from equal parts aspiring and accomplished crusher Jon — finding leaks and fixing them, exploring alternate paths to +EV, and especially trying to convince him to stop turning pairs into bluffs!

Available as both a podcast episode and published on YouTube, other training platforms put literally the same thing behind a paywall as part of their subscription content. At CPG, we want you to see the value of our courses in action, so we’re showing you the receipts by breaking down hands weekly from a variety of stakes.

It's not a poker cult. We swear.

"I've taken all of the CPG courses and have found each of them improved my game. Most training sites require one to attentively watch videos and quickly take notes on abstract concepts with no meaningful feedback to speak of. CPG courses provide concrete, actionable strategies in a digestible format. You receive a PDF file that you can then pull apart and study however works best for you, like with flash cards or hand history review. Best of all, each course grants you increased access to the Greatness Village community Slack channels and Zoom call groups that share your coursework and are eager to help you check your mistakes. Maybe he doesn't want me to write this and fill up his inbox even more, but Brad and his team are the most accessible coaches you'll find on the Internet. Rather than upselling or nickel and diming you like a lawyer, he and his amazing community of crushers are always just a quick click away and open to answering questions from earnest seekers of poker wisdom."

Canadian online poker player and enrollee in all CPG courses
"When I joined the CPG community around 2 years ago, I was barely a breakeven 25NL player. My journey began with Preflop Bootcamp and the impact that course had on my game was so profound, I instantly became a believer in the CPG way. Each subsequent course added more tools to my arsenal. These days, I consistently beat 200NL on GG Poker and am not far away from moving to 500NL. CPG is more than courses though; it is a community, where the biggest crushers are happy to help even the lowliest beginner."
Peter B.
Ireland-based online poker player and Preflop Bootcamp survivor
"Before the poker boom of the early Oughts, when fixed-limit poker was what you played, it was said that if you got a single idea from a poker book that won (or saved) a single bet, it would be worth the price you had paid for that book. And of course a good idea would win or save many bets over time, paying for that book over and over again. This is the era of no-limit hold'em, and a single bet can be worth your entire stack. My bread-and-butter game is a live game with a maximum buy-in of $1k. An idea that lets me double up, or saves my stack, can be worth thousands of dollars, not just the $40 or $60 of a bet in a mid-stakes limit hold'em game. Brainpower is a resource that can be temporarily exhausted through making many decisions. The value of the CPG strategies is that they simplify the decisions one makes in common situations against weaker players, saving brainpower for the difficult situations. By themselves, they can win (or save) bets that add up to more than the cost of the products; but by making those decisions in well-understood spots easier, I can be better prepared to make good decisions in the tough spots, and thus battle for longer and win more money. The CPG strategies were developed from mass data analysis of online games, and they certainly help there; but they also work quite successfully in live games, as well. They have paid for my investment in them over and over again."

OK. So it's a little bit of a poker cult.
