Hi! My name is Mateusz and I've played over 3 million hands of No-Limit Texas Hold'em and lots of hands from different poker variants like PLO.


I started playing poker by depositing $13 into an online poker room, which I lost within like 5 minutes of playing, but then I read a little bit about the basics, deposited another $13, and never had to invest any more money into poker again.


I created this course because I remember vividly when I was starting playing poker, there were no good educational materials for beginner players.


Sure, there were some pretty good books, but none of them started at a 0 experience level. All of them were for people who already knew the game and had some experience.


I had to learn everything by trial and error and I wanted to create a poker course that would reduce this costly and painful learning phase for a completely new player to be as smooth and easy as possible.


I mean, why lose time and money learning poker in an ineffective way if you can go through a course and learn it optimally?


Get started with this course today and you can be crushing a home game with recreational players tomorrow. You cannot go from zero to hero faster than with these lessons. Combine them with regular practice to get the best results.


As a bonus and in case you haven’t played any variant of poker before I am also including 4 bonus videos which will teach you:

- The hand rankings so what beats what, how we compare hands, what are kickers, etc.

- What is Expected Value (EV) and why it’s a super important aspect of poker, other games, and also life

- What are Pot Odds, how to calculate them, and why they’re very useful to make better decisions

- How to set-up Poker Tracker 4, which is a poker tracking software that helps you track your progress, analyze your hands, and see real-time stats on the other players when playing online


I’m also including a .pdf with the hand rankings and glossary of poker terms to help you understand the poker lingo.

Who this course is for:

  • Anyone who wants to quickly learn how to play Pot Limit Omaha and win
  • Players transitioning from Texas Hold'em or other poker variants
