"Having the coaches as my mentors was the main factor that got me from 10NL to 1kNL in 8 months. This was also prior to the creation of the PWR simplified strategies that I still use to this day. They taught me how to work and study as a professional poker player through the use of efficient database work, simplified strategies and hand reviews. I was one of the first PWR students and if I had today's content at my disposal when I first started out, it would have been an even smoother process with less guesswork."

"The last year has been a wild ride. I went from being a losing 200nl grinder to playing the highest stakes that run in my pool (5knl). I hit my average stake, win rate, and bankroll goals much earlier than the one year mark, and I owe PWR a lot for making that possible."

"My experience in the Poker with Riske CFP program has been everything that I hoped it would be. Prior to joining I was already a winning player but my time in the CFP has completely overhauled my game. The coaches do an excellent job of teaching as well as creating a friendly community that supports each other. I feel much more confident while at the tables in large part due to the consistent study schedule I developed during my year here. The program helped me progress from 200NL to consistently beating 500 and 1000NL."

"What separates Poker With Riske from the other coaching I've received before is that the program is incredibly organized and breaks complex ideas into well-structured, implementable heuristics. The community is very active and supportive, and through the program I've become more passionate about poker than I ever was before."

"Joining PWR was the best decision I made in my poker journey thus far. I went from playing 50NL to 2500NL in just a year, this would not have been possible to do on my own. I truly appreciate the PWR's head coach's ability to break down complex concepts and implement them into understandable strategies that are easy to follow. I can't recommend PWR enough to anyone who wants to turn poker from a hobby to a full-time job."​

"Prior to joining PWR, I spent a lot of time looking at solvers not understanding how to digest the information i was looking at. Having the head coaches to guide my study and simplify my strategy as well as fellow students to be in the lab with consistently has taken my understanding of the game to a completely different level. The PWR group sessions on soft skills and how to transition into playing professionally have potentially been even more valuable to me. I would highly reccomend PWR to anyone looking to take poker seriously."

"I had been an online pro for 20 yrs prior to joining PWR, I took month deciding whether it was the right thing for me to do. In my first year after joining I more than doubled my winnings and feel comfortable and confident at any stakes up to 2knl. Their teaching method makes it very easy to learn for any poker player with any amount of experience. Joining the group has changed my life as a poker player and made poker super exciting and enjoyable again."

"Joining this poker coaching program has been a game-changer for me. The structured approach helped me build a solid strategy, which has made a huge difference in my confidence and execution at the tables. Plus, the community aspect is invaluable—discussing hands and strategy with other players has given me new insights and helped me improve even faster. I’m really glad I joined and would recommend it to anyone looking to step up their game."

"PWR directly changed the course of my poker career! In 6 months, I went from a slightly winning 50NL player to beating 1000NL. The baseline strategies are intuitive and easy to learn. The coaches do an amazing job of teaching fundamentals and helping students learn to think for themselves. Above all else, what has helps me the most is having an engaging community of like-minded players who are almost always available to study together, review hands, and work on perfecting our strategy with coaches on standby there to guide the students every step of the way. Having been a member of multiple training sites, I can confidently say there’s nothing out there that compares to the value of being a part of the PWR community!"

"I consider myself lucky to be given the opportunity to join the PWR program and forever grateful for helping me find success. I knew if i put the work in and followed everything the coaches preached, my game would turn around. The 1 on 1 sessions with the team were pivotal in the development of my understanding how to properly follow an exploitive strategy . The coaches dedication to my success allowed me to jump from 50nl to 500/1kNL in roughly 2 years and helped me turn poker into a potential profitable career giving us students all the tools to think and play like a professional."

"PWR was a turning point in my poker career. I was barely winning at the game but after learning their simplified strategy and attending the weekly sessions absolutely changed my game. With a very strong community, I made friends in the group who helped each other along the way. I moved up from playing NL200 to NL1000. Although I ran way below EV, PWR helped me keep my confidence and play through the downswings"
