Players who visit the site can chat to each other through the online community, sharing tips and discussing plays, adding an extra dimension to this 24/7 poker training camp.

Facilities for academy users include an application that calculates a players' odds against different hands, which can simulate six players at a table with any combination of cards; a random function is also available, to represent the unpredictable nature of real games.
