SURGE AHEAD IN COMPLEX POKER GAMES

BE PART OF THE POKER ELITE

As a private student, you’ll undergo rigorous training in counterfactual reasoning to sharpen your strategic thought patterns. I use Socratic teaching methods to challenge you in every coaching session, followed by targeted assignments designed to calibrate your intuition.

My research emphasizes building strategies that humans can execute to make the most money against the human players they face at the poker tables. I don't just take a machine-generated solution and teach from an over-simplified spreadsheet. Instead, I train you how to 
anticipate and adapt to maximally exploit your real human opponents.

WHAT PRIVATE CLIENTS ARE SAYING

"Phil has been extraordinary in coaching me. His ability to compute difficult mathematic solvers has helped me a tonne in my game. It allowed me to clearly identify mistakes all the way from preflop to the river, street by street. My understanding of the game has reached the very top level due to his help."

ABOUT PHIL ROCQUEMORE

For over a decade I have trained high stakes poker players from every continent (except Antarctica) by teaching my ‘Metastrategy’ conceptual framework, in conjunction with the proprietary training software, Pokermuscle, developed by the Cardquant team. The elite group of poker players that work with me have won millions of dollars at the tables in both live and online poker games.

My framework is most powerful in unsolved, high-dimensional game variants like 5cPLO, 6cPLO, Big O, and Short Deck, where an understanding of multiway, exploitative, and future play are all essential.

The software tools, theoretical expositions, and decision heuristics found at Cardquant were originally built not for mass consumption, but for testing hypotheses about high-dimensional thinking, human adaptation, and gaining and maintaining an edge in adversarial environments. 

Where the work of other poker strategists ends, the work at Cardquant begins.

By providing your information today, you are giving consent for us or our partners, to contact you by mail, phone, text, or email using automated technology to the data provided, even if the phone number is present on a state or national Do Not Call list. We do not sell your personal information to other companies, and you can withdraw consent at any time. By submitting this form, you agree to our Privacy Policy and Terms of Service.

Each session is designed to refine your strategic understanding by putting your poker thought processes under the microscope. We'll begin with a video review to assess your typical approach to the game. Next, we'll focus on hand histories in the situations flagged by your tests. Finally, you will be invited to bring examples of irregular hands that give you trouble, so that you can learn how to generate strong adaptive poker strategies in real-time.

The Strategy Surge program includes 8 weeks of access to Pokermuscle, our private training environment designed to enhance your poker decision process. You’ll reinforce the exact framework introduced during coaching - not by memorizing static hand charts or solver solutions for idealized toy games, but by engaging with real poker scenarios using the suite of analytic tools in our Calibration Zone. You'll also calibrate your intuition with our preflop and postflop exercises so that you can reserve precious thinking time at the poker table for exploitative considerations. 

Your Strategy Surge begins with two diagnostic tests designed to expose your personal cognitive red zones- calibration errors in your poker instincts and faulty decision heuristics. These structured assessments map both your explicit understanding and your intuitive responses against Cardquant’s advanced pattern models, flagging the points of vulnerability where your strategy breaks down under complexity, speed, or adversarial pressure.
