Pricing

Deckwise costs $6.99 a week, $22.99 a month or $99.99 a year, and all three billing periods include exactly the same thing. Over a full year that is $363.48, $275.88 and $99.99 respectively, so the yearly plan works out about 72% cheaper per month than the weekly one. Checkout is not open yet: these are launch prices, and while Deckwise is in early access every plan opens without a card and nothing is charged.

Deckwise is not free, but a lot of the site is readable without paying anything. The course and the preflop trainer are the paid part: every one of the 14 units needs a plan, including the first, and so do the trainer and the review queue built from the questions you get wrong. The reference side is a different thing, and none of it is locked, the 46 starting hand pages, the 26-matchup library, the outs tables, the hand rankings, the range charts and both calculators are published for anyone to read. There is no free tier and no sample unit, because the only thing a plan changes is how often you pay.

Not yet. Deckwise is in early access, which means choosing a plan opens everything immediately and nothing is charged, because there is no payment processor connected. When checkout does open, every plan will start with 7 unbilled days. In the meantime the calculators and every reference page work right now with no plan, and the course and the trainer open without a card.

No card is needed, and none can be taken. Deckwise is in early access with no payment processor connected, so choosing a plan opens the course and charges nothing. When checkout opens, the 7 unbilled days will come before the first charge rather than after it.

Monthly is the sensible default, long enough to finish the course and short enough to walk away from. Weekly at $30.29 / month makes sense only if you are preparing for one specific series. Yearly costs $99.99 against $275.88 for the same twelve months, which is worth it if you already know you will still be studying in six.

There is nothing to cancel yet, because nothing can be charged yet. The commitment for launch is the one worth reading now: no minimum term on any of the three plans, no cancellation fee, and the 7 unbilled days come before the first charge rather than after it.

The 7 unbilled days exist so that the decision is made before any money moves, which is the refund policy in practice. Since checkout is not open, nobody has paid anything to be refunded.

A subscription includes the whole course, all 14 units and 103 lessons of it, plus the review queue that rebuilds itself from the hands you keep getting wrong and a heatmap of where you are losing. It includes nothing on the calculator or the reference pages, because those were never locked.

Deckwise is a Texas hold'em training site built around three things: a 14-unit course of 103 playable lessons and 833 graded questions, a preflop trainer that marks your decisions against reference range charts, and an exact equity calculator. There is nothing to watch, every lesson is played rather than read, and every answer is marked by the same engine that powers the calculator.

Nothing needs to be installed. Deckwise runs entirely in your browser on desktop and mobile, and the equity engine executes in a Web Worker on your own device, which is why results are instant and why nothing you type is uploaded.

Deckwise works on a phone and was designed for one first. Every control is reachable with a thumb, results collapse into a bar you can tap to expand, and card entry works by tapping or by typing a rank and a suit, “as” for the ace of spades. It can also be installed to a home screen and opened like an app.

No account is needed today. Everything works as it is, and your progress is stored in your browser rather than on a server, which is why it does not follow you between devices and why clearing site data clears it. If accounts arrive it will be so that progress can follow you, and this answer will change with them.

Deckwise works offline in part. Every page is a static file and every calculation happens on your device, so a page you have already loaded keeps working with no connection. Pages you have not visited still need to be fetched once.

The range charts print from the browser at full resolution, because they are rendered as real markup rather than as images. They stay legible in black and white too: the raising range is distinguished by fill as well as by colour.

The course is for players who already know the rules and the hand rankings and want the maths underneath them. It covers preflop ranges, pot odds, counting outs, equity, board texture and GTO frequencies, and it does not teach you what a flush is.

The course is 14 units, 103 lessons and 833 graded questions, and how long it takes depends entirely on how quickly the answers start coming out right. There is nothing to watch and no running time to sit through: every lesson is played, and each unit ends in a review you have to pass before the next one opens.

Deckwise is not a gambling site. Nothing on it accepts a wager, holds a balance or connects to a real-money game. It is a calculator, a reference library and a training tool for a game of incomplete information, and every number on it is arithmetic you could do yourself given enough time.
