Stox Poker Review


StoxPoker is perhaps the most well rounded poker training site on the market, exactly what you would expect from one of the original training sites and current leaders in the industry. The StoxPoker team features some of the brightest minds in many different forms of poker, making StoxPoker the place for players looking for a well rounded game in multiple disciplines.

 

With over 700 streaming videos (also available for download) StoxPoker has one of the largest libraries of any training site. And the diversity of the cash game videos is astounding when compared to other sites. StoxPoker also releases around 40 videos every month, making them tops in the industry for new content.

 

StoxPoker features the StoxPoker University videos, and their Class-Room series of power-point presentations to help players learn from the ground up, or eliminate any bad habits they have picked up along the way. The simple to follow classroom and University instruction also makes it easy for players to transition to a new form of poker –and StoxPoker has quite a bit of content in many different forms of poker. StoxPoker’s recent merger with Cardrunners will only boost the level of instruction, while adding even more world class instructors to the site.

Strengths

StoxPoker’s strengths lie in their instructors who excel in multiple forms of poker. Unlike other sites that specialize in a single form, and only possess a smattering of videos in other areas, StoxPoker’s content represents a cross-section of poker: The majority of videos deal with No Limit Hold’ Em (NLHE); followed by an equal amount of Limit Hold’ Em, Sit & Go Tournaments, and Multi-Table Tournaments; and a smaller, but adequate amount of Stud and Omaha videos.

 

StoxPoker main instructors are:

• Nick "Stoxtrader" Grudzien
• Bryce “Freedom 25” Paradis
• Dusty “Leatherass” Schmidt
• Kyle “Cottonseed” Hendon
• Matt “Jacks Up” Matros
• Collin "sngman101" Moshman
• Ed Miller
• Robert "Mr. Omaha" Williamson III
• Jared Tendler
• Hunter “Beach Justice” Bick
• James “james282” Davis

StoxPoker also has a large list of guest instructors players can learn from.

• Bob "MicroBob" Rotruck
• Sasha "Pokey" Radisich
• Patrick "Bilbo-San" Minton
• Brian "baleksa" Aleksa
• Jason "code 7654321" Ho
• Alan "Dixon" Jackson
• Jeremy "supreme20" Steinhausen
• James "SplitSuit" Sweeney
• Adam "duderino" Baird
• Felipe Mesquita
• Ryon "7CardRyon" Nicholson
• Dan Abrams
• Stosh McConnell
• Eric Rodawig
• Ben Kniaz
• Reese Newell
• Predeep Padala
• Dmunnee

 

StoxPoker dominates their competition in Limit Hold’ Em and Pot Limit Omaha content. Stox is the place for limit Hold’ Em instruction; headlined by Bryce “freedom25” Paradis’s incredible instruction. And Robert Williamson III does an outstanding job in the Omaha videos of explaining the key concepts of the game. These two areas are #2 and #3 in popularity, behind NLHE, and while other sites mostly ignore these variants, Stox tackles them head on with some world-class instruction.

Weaknesses
We honestly have nothing negative to say about StoxPoker: The site contains no content holes, the instruction team is full of top names, and they do a great job in their analysis.


Video Library Summary:

Videos – 700+
• No Limit Hold’ Em (cash) –Over 350 videos
• Limit Hold’ Em (cash) – Over 70 videos
• Other CashGames – Over 75 videos
• Multi-Table Tournaments --85 videos
• Sit & Go Tournaments—70 videos
• Classroom series – 35 videos
• StoxPoker University – 500 videos


Written Content:
StoxPoker has the mandatory forum and blog areas: Both areas are quite large, and extremely active. StoxPoker.com also has ‘courses’ submitted by different members and instructors where players can review content (and watch the pertinent videos) and then take quizzes to see how they are absorbing the information.

 

Goodies:

StoxPoker offers some very interesting promotions.

• With the recent merger with Cardrunners, StoxPoker members can receive a discounted membership to their sister site.
• Stox allows players to cash in their points on Full Tilt poker to purchase a membership to the site.
• StoxPoker has member submitted videos.
• StoxPoker is the only site to publicly offer its members a 7-day, no questions asked, refund.
• Stox also has a HH converter and very unique feature where players can search the database of hands; instead of attempting to find them in the forum threads.

 

Price

Stox Poker have dropped the one $99 activation fee and have reduced the cost of memberships for 6 month and 12 month subscribers. Stox also gives its members the option to pay monthly, or prepay for a predetermined amount of time.

• Monthly: $27.97/month
• Pre-Paid: 6 months for $145, or 12 months for $225

 

The Verdict: Score: 8/10
StoxPoker is a well rounded training site with something for players of all levels. While still trailing behind PokerSavvyPlus and DeucesCracked, it is a good choice if you want to sign up to more than one training site.
