SHORT DECK ACADEMY — LEARN THE GAME

Our interactive Short Deck poker course covers three essential modules:

• The Basics — Short Deck poker rules, hand rankings, the 36-card deck, and how the ante structure changes strategy compared to Texas Hold'em.

Each lesson includes quizzes with explanations so you truly understand the strategy behind every decision.

WHY SHORT DECK POKER?

Short Deck (also called 6+ Hold'em or Six Plus Hold'em) removes all 2s through 5s from the deck, creating intense action with a 36-card deck. Featured at Triton Poker with million-dollar pots, it's the poker variant where:

• Equities run closer — AA vs JTs is 63/37 (vs 80/20 in Hold'em)

• Sets hit more often — 17-18% on the flop (vs 12% in Hold'em)

• Straights are everywhere — 13.65% probability (vs 4.62% in Hold'em)

• Every pot is bigger thanks to the ante-only structure
