Praise and Critique – BlackRain79 Elite Poker University
The course is well-structured and thorough. BlackRain79 presents all the information in a clear and easy-to-understand way.
He often recommends straightforward TAG game without overthinking.
His strategy is simple and adjusted according to your opponent’s playing style.
‘We always want to have a flexible strategy in poker which adjusts to the strengths and weaknesses of your opponents.”
Nathan Williams uses uncomplicated language and explains the poker slang.
I particularly enjoyed Nathan’s explanations of why playing aggressively is crucial in poker. His thought process is logical and will make sense even to novice players.
Hundreds of hand examples guide you through the most challenging spots you will face at the tables.
On the negative side, there are not enough strategy adjustments for MTT play, but there is a separate section for tournaments.
Also, there is no application. But it’s unnecessary since the course is easy to use from a mobile device without the app.
Recommendation
I recommend it to beginner and intermediate players. However, you must have some basic understanding to take this course (know the rules, etc.).
If you are an advanced player, you should get a course designed specifically for the games you play, for example, The Tournament Masterclass – Expert by Raise Your Edge (use BOPEXP to get $150 OFF).
Watch the course from beginning to end because the videos are made in linear order, from the most basic concepts to the most advanced ones.
To be a winning player, you must be familiar with all the concepts this course teaches.
