Description
Octopi Poker is an online platform for learning optimal strategy in tournament Hold’em. It runs in the browser: nothing needs to be installed, and all calculations and libraries live on the service’s side, so no powerful computer is required. It brings together ready-made solutions, a trainer, analysis of the user’s own hands, and a large collection of hands from major live tournaments.
The foundation of the platform is a library of solved spots. It covers preflop ranges for all positions at depths from roughly 10 to 100 big blinds, spots with equal and uneven stacks, bubble and final-table play, and solutions that account for ICM — a model that converts chips into real money based on the tournament payout structure. A distinctive feature is the Range Map, a visual chart of how the opening range changes from position to position.
The trainer turns what’s been studied into practice. Spots can be set up very precisely: format (8-max tournaments, 6-max cash, heads-up), a single street or the whole hand, stack depth, the player’s own position and the opponent’s, action type (folded to, facing a raise, facing a 3-bet), board texture, and hand class. Each decision is graded immediately, and the game tree is available alongside it: hovering over a node shows which hands raise, call, or fold at that point.
The Vault is what sets the platform apart from similar services. It’s a constantly growing collection of real hands from Triton, WSOP, PGT, and other series: every hand is solved and broken down by position, stack depth, and tournament pressure, and comes with a video clip from the broadcast. Any hand can be played out from the seat of a specific player, and the decision can be compared against two benchmarks at once — what the pro did and what the optimal strategy suggests.
Around these tools sits an educational and community layer: academy courses with videos, exercises, and quizzes, weekly coaching sessions, leaderboards, a forum with a marketplace for private lessons, and a Discord community. The built-in AI assistant Ask George helps users find their way around, pointing out where things are and answering strategy questions — a useful aid for anyone who hasn’t worked with solvers before.
