PokerSchoolOnline sets new standards, and Live Poker Training is the perfect way to put what you've learned into practice.
The name tells you exactly what to expect:
- Live: All sessions are live. When you take part you are encouraged to ask questions, which are then answered by PokerSchoolOnline experts.
- Poker: The sessions are all about poker. No variant is left aside. Texas Hold'em or Omaha, big tournaments, Sit & Go's or cash games, full ring or 6-max. It doesn't matter if you have a big or a short stack: there is something for everyone.
- Training: If you want to play successful poker, you have to be willing to constantly work on your game. To do this, theoretical knowledge is as important as simple strategies and concepts. In the same way that you would train for sport, or study for an exam, you have to practice your poker skills before they can be applied successfully at the table.
These three elements combine to give you a unique and interactive tool, which has everything you need for effective training. There are poker tables, an audio player and a chat function. No additional software is required – all you need to do is check the training schedule at PokerSchoolOnline, choose a certain course or session, and then register and open the corresponding link.

What does Live Training look like?
The trainer plays at a PokerStars real money table, which can be viewed in real time using to the browser-based tool by all participants of the session. The trainer, whose hole cards you can see, not only narrates his actions at the table via the audio player, but also explains his strategic train of thought. The participants have the opportunity to ask questions via the chat function, which are then answered by the trainers.
Shadow Sessions - Observing someone play while seeing their hole cards and hearing their thought processes in real time. (i.e. following their every move like you were their shadow)
