Stage 1 has lessons
Seven short lessons take you from the deck to position, with small tasks to try as you go. Each one is on the Start here map, and Next always points to the one after.
Start the first lessonSee your progress
Your progress page shows your rank and how close the next one is, what to do next, your best scores, your recent rounds and the kinds of hands you miss most.
See your progressThree guides for your home game
How to host a home game, how blinds work, and chip values and starting stacks. They go hand in hand with the blinds timer.
Read the home game guideA map of the whole path
Start here shows where you are and what to do next, then all five stages from fish to narwhal, with their coaches and skills.
Open the mapThe creatures come alive
Each rank's creature now moves gently and reacts when you hover over or tap it: the fish flicks its tail, the pufferfish puffs up and the octopus waves.
Meet them on the front pageKnow the basics? Take the skills check
Answer one question at a time and the skills check places you on the path, so you can skip what you already know.
Take the skills checkPass the exam, become a pufferfish
Stage 1's exam is Which hand wins? Get 8 out of 10 and your fish turns into a pufferfish. The practice hub shows your rank and what the next one takes.

See the front pageType cards into the analyzer
Type "As Kd Qh Jh 2c" instead of tapping each card. 10 or T both work, and so do suit symbols; a wrong card or a repeat says what to fix.
Try the analyzerA blinds timer for home games
It suggests a structure for your players, stack and smallest chip, then runs the clock with spoken level changes, a TV mode and the screen kept awake. Chips only, no money.

Two hands, one board: pick the winner, or a split, and see why. Prefer the keyboard? Arrows pick, Enter locks it in, so a stray key never answers.
