About this table
This is a free 6-max Texas Hold'em table where you play against five AI opponents who each play like a real type of low-stakes player. There is no signup, no download and nothing to buy: pick a stack size, click Deal, and play. While you play, the Professor tracks the same statistics a coach would (how often you enter pots, raise, continuation-bet, fold to aggression and reach showdown), and after 8 hands gives you an early read on your most expensive leak — the full read arrives at 15 hands. Across the players HoldemPro has diagnosed, the most common leak by far is passive postflop play, and this table is the fastest way to find out whether it is yours.
Who you are playing against
| Bot | Style | How it plays — and how to beat it |
|---|---|---|
| TAG | Tight-aggressive | Opens a solid range, 3-bets only premiums, bets for value with honest sizing. The baseline good regular. The Wolf profile → |
| LAG | Loose-aggressive | Opens wide, 3-bets about 40% more often than the TAG, barrels multiple streets. Hard to pin down; punishes passivity. The Fox profile → |
| Nit | Tight-passive | Plays only premiums and rarely bluffs. Very readable — folds to pressure, and only puts big money in with monsters. The Vault profile → |
| Station | Calling station | Calls too much and almost never raises: it calls down with any pair about 85% of the time. Value-bet it thin, never bluff it. The Sponge profile → |
| Maniac | Maniac | Opens and bets nearly everything, bluffs about 70% of the time it fires, 3-bets two and a half times as often as the TAG. Call lighter, let it bluff off its stack. The Hammer profile → |
| GTO | Balanced | A solver-flavoured baseline with balanced sizing and no exploitable tendency — available as an opponent option, not in the default lineup. The Surgeon profile → |
The default lineup seats the TAG, LAG, Nit, Station and Maniac; any seat can be swapped from the table controls. Each type's counter-strategy is explained in the player archetypes guide.
Action table vs Realistic table
The table opens in Action mode: you are dealt a playable hand more often than a fair deck would give you, and the opponents are a touch looser, so you face a real decision most hands instead of folding three out of four. Switch to Realistic for a fair random deal and an honest opponent mix when you want your VPIP and PFR to mean what they would in a live game. The Professor corrects for the deal style, so your leak read is comparable either way.
Play vs AI FAQ
Is the HoldemPro poker table free?
Yes. The play-vs-AI table is free with no signup, no download and no play-money purchase. Hands, the Professor's read and the leak diagnosis all work without an account; a free account only adds saving your progress across devices.
What kind of AI opponents are at the table?
Five bots, each a recognisable player type: a tight-aggressive regular, a loose-aggressive player, a nit, a calling station and a maniac. Each has its own preflop range, aggression level and bluff frequency, so the right adjustment against one is wrong against another — exactly as at a real low-stakes table.
How does the Professor read my play?
The Professor watches every hand you play — how often you enter pots, raise, continuation-bet, fold to aggression and go to showdown — and compares it with what winning players do in the same spots. After 8 hands it gives an early read; from 15 hands the read is full. It names the single most expensive pattern (for example passive postflop play, the most common leak in HoldemPro's data) and links the drill that fixes it.
What is the difference between the Action table and the Realistic table?
The Action table, on by default, deals you a playable hand more often and seats looser opponents, so you see more decisions per minute. The Realistic table deals fairly and uses an honest opponent mix, for players who want their numbers to match a live game. Your leak read is corrected for the deal style either way, so stats stay comparable.
How do I practice poker online for free?
On this page: open the table (no signup), pick a stack — 50, 100 or 200 big blinds — and click Deal. Play at least 8 hands so the Professor can read your game; open the read to see your most expensive leak; then either drill that leak or keep playing. The whole loop is free, and a free account is only needed to keep progress across devices.
Can I choose stack sizes and opponents?
Yes. Stacks can be set to 50, 100 or 200 big blinds, bot speed to slow, medium or fast, and any seat's opponent type can be changed. Live Reads — a running tell on each opponent's tendencies — are part of HoldemPro Pro.
