All of these are great options, but most top players say the best way to learn is to watch a great player do their thing and to interact with them and discuss their approach. It used to be that gaining that kind of access to great players was incredibly hard to do, but in recent years that has all changed due to Twitch.
Right now you might be asking yourself, “What is ‘Twitch’ and what does it have to do with poker?”
Well, Twitch is the world’s foremost video game live streaming community, with more than 100 million unique views across the platform each month.
