About Green Felt Notes

Most poker players can describe their worst beat in detail. Fewer can say whether they were getting the right price to call. Green Felt Notes is written for that second conversation.

The site covers three tables. The strategy notes work through hands street by street: preflop ranges, bet sizing, when to slow down and when to keep firing. The math notes show the arithmetic behind pot odds, equity, ICM and the solver outputs that now shape most study plans. The home-game notes cover the practical side of hosting: chip values, structures, etiquette and keeping a friendly game friendly.

How the notes are put together

Each piece starts from sources a reader can check: published rules, tournament structure sheets, poker room terms, books and the documentation that study tools publish about themselves. Where a note discusses solver output, it says which assumptions went in, because a solver answer is only as good as the ranges and sizes it was given.

Green Felt Notes does not claim to have played in a given room or run a given piece of software. When it compares training sites, solvers or HUDs, the comparison rests on published features, pricing and terms, with the date those were checked.

Who sits down here

Recreational players who want to stop guessing, home-game hosts who want their Friday night to run smoothly, and online players building a study routine. The notes assume you know how a hand of hold’em plays out. Everything after that gets explained.

A word on age

Real-money poker is for adults: 21+, or 18+ where state law allows. The responsible gambling page lists free help for players and hosts alike.

Paid placements

Ads keep the lights on, along with the occasional sponsored note. Paid articles are labeled “Sponsored: paid placement”, paid links carry rel="sponsored nofollow", and real-money poker rooms only appear where they hold a state license. The editorial policy explains the rest.
