Is BTG Right For You?

BTG is for players who want a long-term, professional approach to poker — not quick fixes, motivation hacks, or directionless volume.

Your Path:

You’ve had success at mid–high stakes and want to break through.

You want:

A structured system for decision-making, study, and performance.

You’re tired of:

Inconsistency, discipline slipping, and swings controlling your confidence.

You’re ready for:

Long-term growth, expert mentorship, and an elite performance environment.

Skill gets you here. Consistency determines where you go next.

Poker tests your ability to access what you already know — not just your ability to know it.

BTG gives serious players the systems, support, and structure that actually move the needle.

Your A-Game becomes easier to access, more stable, and more profitable.

You're good enough to know when you're leaving money on the table

Not only in the real sense but in the real life, real pressure sense.

You recognize the right decision when you see it,

but accessing that clarity isn’t always automatic.

You know how to study and improve,

but keeping the rhythm going is harder than it should be.

You accept that swings are part of the game,

but they still take more from you than you'd like.

You know you’re capable of playing higher,

but something always interrupts the momentum.

About Beyond the game

BTG is a one-year performance and support program for mid- and high-stakes players who want clearer direction, stronger systems, and a more stable, rewarding poker life — both on and off the felt.

This is not poker training.

It’s not a step-by-step course.

Navigate uncertainty
Execute consistently
Perform under pressure
Stay aligned with your long-term vision

Take control of your next chapter.

BTG helps you build the structure and support to perform at your highest level — consistently.
