I’m Nick, the founder and CEO of Poker Detox. Over the last 15 years I’ve coached over 1000 poker players, including some of the top players in the world. Most people know me from my work as an Elite Coach at RunItOnce.com from 2013-2015, where I started a new movement toward simplified GTO and data-driven strategies.

I founded Poker Detox in 2016 and released several public training products before going private with our current training model: Coaching For Profits (CFP). Our CFP program allows struggling poker players to train with the most powerful data-driven strategies on the market, and earn money with zero financial risk or confusion. All of our CFP players are are provided with financial backing, which allows them to move to high stakes as efficiently as possible.

CFP has been the most rewarding format of poker training that I’ve experienced, particularly because of how well it aligns for both player and coach. It is the only model of poker training available that provides opportunities to struggling players who lack the financial means to invest in their poker education.

At Detox, I’ve built an environment that gives our players a deep sense of belonging and a wide array of opportunities to contribute back to the development of their team. We are a community of loyal friends who have achieved a high level of performance in a game we love. Poker has allowed us to travel all over the world while creating permanent memories together. I’m proud to call many of the CFP alumni my close friends. I’m going to continue riding this wave for as long as possible, and I welcome anyone with the same dream to come be a part of our team.

Patrick Howard is our lead strategy developer. Most of his time is spent using Hand2Note’s Range Research tool on large databases to continually improve our team’s strategy. He is also a full-time professional player.

• After experiencing the team culture first hand in Barcelona during the summer 2017 team retreat he became interested and started helping out with various jobs at the company, even playing part time throughout 2018.
• His scientific background gave him a passion for data analysis, and he began tinkering with larger and larger hand samples that were pushing the limits of industry software at the time.
• In 2018 he created a course called Ether, which uses Hand2Note data to quantify the population’s bluffing frequencies across the game tree.
• In early 2019 he started playing full time where he climbed from 200NL to 2,000NL over the course of a 6 month period using strategies built off of his research.
