What we teach, and what your school teaches

Learn to Deal is the lessons in the app. It starts with dealer basics and hand rankings, then Hold’em, Omaha, Omaha Hi-Lo, Stud, Stud Hi-Lo and Razz.

We teach

  • The rules
  • The pays
  • Procedure order
  • Speed

Your school teaches

  • Pitching
  • Chip handling
  • Stick work
  • Live pace

An app can’t teach your hands. Your instructor or your room does that, on a real table.

Questions

Does it work offline?
Yes. Open it once with a signal and it keeps working without one. Add it to your home screen and it opens like any other app.
Do I need an account?
No, not to practice. You sign in to connect a purchase, or if your room or school gives you a code, so your graded work can go to them.
Is my practice shared with anyone?
No. Practice stays on your phone. If you join a room, it sees your graded exercises and gauntlets, and the email and name or employee ID you signed in with. Never your practice.
