This section is called "Theory", but it covers more than just poker theory. You'll find interviews filmed at major tournaments, tips on the mental game of poker, advice on dealing with downswings, news from the poker world and even videos exposing the collusion that can occur when you play poker live.

Speaking of collusion, if you want to know what it's all about, take a look at the video entitled "We Need To Talk About COLLUSION In Poker" by Doug Polk. In this video, you'll see that a couple are suspected of "softplaying" in a major tournament to win the tournament.

Softplay is when you don't play your normal aggressive poker in order to protect another player. For example, you will never bluff the person you are softplaying and you will make more passive plays to keep the pot small (for example, call instead of 3-bet). This is obviously illegal and reprehensible behaviour.

Another video that caught our attention and that might interest you is a video entitled "Poker Science: Blockers" in which you will learn that it is important to keep blockers in mind when playing poker. As a reminder, a blocker is a card that blocks. For example, if there are 3 hearts on the flop and you have the ace of hearts in your hand, you block the nuts. This card will not give you a flush, but it will give you the information that your opponent cannot have the nuts.

As with all the sections in the 'Videos' section, if you ever have a video in mind about poker theory and want to share it with us, feel free to add it using the 'Add a poker video' button. You can link a video from YouTube or Twitch.
