Most cash game players study the way the forums tell them to: memorise a solver output, then wonder why it does not win in their pool. Nick Howard went the other way. In the intro to PIO Unlocked he puts it in one line: “simplification is actually equivalent to greater accuracy.” The Poker Detox courses turn that idea into a system you can check: Hand2Note filters, PioSolver aggregation reports, MonkerSolver preflop solves and hand-by-hand coaching, all pointing at the same few zones where the pool loses money.
The Poker Detox bundle brings all eight courses from the school together, so you study one method from preflop to river instead of collecting single packs. If you want the school overview first, read our Poker Detox courses review, or browse each course on its own in the Poker Detox category.

We estimated runtimes from the full lesson transcripts at Nick’s speaking pace of about 181 words a minute. We measured that pace on PIO Unlocked, whose file names give the length of each lesson. Nine Coaching For Profits lessons also appear in Night Vision Expansion; without them the bundle has about 47 hours of video. The 30 Day Training Camp and the Mobius Standard Lines files come on top of that.

Pillar 1 · Mass data analysis
The Mass Data Analysis Core
Three courses in the Poker Detox bundle teach you to see the pool clearly: what it does preflop, where it over-folds after the flop and when it over-bluffs on the river.
Course 1 · 32 videos · 17 chapters
Night Vision Expansion
Night Vision Expansion is the research lab of the Poker Detox bundle. Steve, the lead software specialist, opens this Poker Detox bundle course with about five hours of step-by-step tutorials on Hand2Note, Holdem Manager 2 and PioSolver aggregation reports. Then Nick turns the data into strategy. The studies run on real pools: iPoker 400NL and 1KNL, Pacific 400NL and a PokerStars Zoom 100/200 database of 23 million hands that produced 99 million data points.
In the large barreling study the sample grows past 500 million data-point hands. Nick then compares 2017 hands with hands from 2011 and 2012 to see which hotspots held over six years. If you need the tools, see our Hand2Note HUDs section and the guide to exploiting opponents with an MDA HUD system.

Inside the course · Six years apart
Nick puts the 2011–2012 hotspot grids next to the 2017 grids, now backed by more than 500 million data-point hands. The question is simple: do pool leaks go away when the games get tougher? The Large DB Barreling Study answers it, spot by spot.
Course 2 · 5 videos + Playability Pack
Ether Ultimate
Ether Ultimate opens with a feeling every player knows: a big river bet, a bluff catcher, and the mouse moving between call and fold. Nick replaces that guess with data. Module 1 introduces bluff catching with mass data. Module 2 builds a simple fish profile from two data points, line and bet size, and Module 3 shows what changes against regs. Then Patrick, lead engineer of the Ether Almanac, shows you how to set up your own MDA lab in Hand2Note in 30 minutes or less.
The advanced module adds three special profiles, Nit Reg, Weak Fish and Volatile Fish, plus a 2018 aggression-trend study on a 35-million-hand database and a high-stakes study of about 18 million hands.

Black Box Ultimate
Black Box Ultimate is the preflop part of the Poker Detox bundle, and its intro is blunt: “This course is not about playing balanced ranges.” Four modules break down how each player type plays preflop. Volatile fish have the worst win rate of all, passive fish open too tight and limp too wide, regs are balanced in the basic parts of the game tree, and nit regs are so tight that you win mostly without showdown.
Module 5 covers the MonkerSolver solves: min-raise, 2.5x and 3x opens across different rake structures. It shows why the open size and the rake cap change how wide you can play. Modules 6 to 12 hold the solve files, each with its own MonkerViewer walkthrough.

Solver Work Without the Overwhelm
Two courses in the Poker Detox bundle turn solver output into lines you can actually play: one shows the process, the other gives you the finished lines.
Course 4 · 22 videos + tutorial · 12 h 18 min labelled
PIO Unlocked
PIO Unlocked is the solver course of the Poker Detox bundle, and it starts with a promise: no grind, less study time, and only the outputs that matter. Pack 1 builds the flop game: BB 3-bet pots out of position, in-position single-raised pots from middle position, small blind vs big blind, and a big blind defence model against a 3x, 45% button open. Pack 2 moves to the turn and the river, from turn c-bet thresholds on a 9-5-2 board to spots where the villain faces a very hard defence decision.
Pack 2 opens with Nick’s own Bovada results “for accountability and transparency”. It ends with a 73-minute bonus review of his 10/20 hands. For the tools, see the how to use PioSolver in real games guide.

Inside the course · The 33,000-trial number
A student sends Nick his 39-million-hand alias. The big blind folds to a river c-bet in single-raised pots 54.3% of the time, over more than 33,000 river barrel trials. Nick shows how one stat like this changes the whole in-position river strategy.

Mobius Poker Cash Standard Lines 2024
Mobius Poker Cash Standard Lines 2024 is the 2024 reference for 6-max cash. It is a set of 19 text files, one for each standard line: single-raised, 3-bet and 4-bet pots, in and out of position, as raiser and as caller. It adds line and texture calibration and river protocols for bluffing and bluff catching against fish and regs. Mobius is the project of Patrick Howard; our Mobius Poker review covers the GTO Stat Checker tools from the same team.

Pillar 3 · Coaching programs
The Programs Behind the Team
These two courses turn the research of the Poker Detox bundle into a training plan. They fit any player working through the cash poker courses catalogue who wants a system rather than a playlist.
Course 6 · 25 videos · 4 tiers · 52 range files
Coaching For Profits
Coaching For Profits is the core program of the school. Its Tier 1 opening explains the idea: the standard line system was built to exploit pool trends found in a sample of more than 100 million hands. Each tier adds one layer. Tier 1 covers standard lines and polarization. Tier 2 covers bluff allowance, playability and Code Red textures. Tier 3 covers your opponent’s view of your range and bet size. Tier 4 covers player profiling and confidence intervals.
Most lessons are recorded coaching sessions. You hear students explain their hands, then hear Nick mark the mistake and give it a name, such as forced aggression, a standard line violation or an over-application.

30 Day Training Camp
The 30 Day Training Camp is the guided path into the Poker Detox bundle: four weeks and 26 lessons. Week 1 covers fundamentals, a preflop game plan, leak finding and variance. Week 2 covers flop strategy and defence in single-raised and 3-bet pots. Week 3 covers flow states, check-raise defence and river defence. Week 4 covers fish exploits, river bluffing, blockers, mental game tools and a mindset group call with Nick. The course page says it is for micro and small stakes cash players with at least a year of online play.

Pillar 4 · Mindset
The Mental Game Layer
A data-driven system only wins if you keep following it when you are under pressure. The last course in the Poker Detox bundle covers that part.
Course 8 · 5 videos · ≈5 h 10 min
Mental Game
Mental Game, the mindset course of the Poker Detox bundle, is built from real sessions. Students send footage of a recent session with a voice-over of what they were thinking in each key hand. Nick sorts those hands by the leaks that keep coming back. Part 2 is about one skill: cutting an over-complicated thought process down to the one, two or three data points that matter. Part 3 shows how a bias appears and then gets explained away. Part 4 is a 20-minute live lesson with a student. The seminar teaches a problem-solving method in two layers, starting with the technical side.
For more on this topic, see our list of the best mental game poker courses and the article on tilt and decision fatigue.
Single course page: Poker Detox Mental Game

Mental Game lesson list
Four parts and the seminar.
- Part 1 · Structure of the pack and the first student hands
- Part 2 · Simplified analysis: from over-complication to the key data points
- Part 3 · Bad folds, bias and rationalisation
- Part 4 · A live student lesson, about 20 minutes
- PDMG Seminar · How to become a better problem solver (lecture and Q&A)
Inside the course · The bad fold
A student calls with 10-8 suited against a fish’s small open, short-stacked. Later in the hand he folds. Nick calls it the worst of three options, because calling and raising were both better, and marks the moment: “That was the bias.” Then you hear the student explain the fold away in real time.
Why a bundle
Why the Poker Detox Bundle Works as One System
Each course uses the language and data of the others. Studied together, they answer each other’s questions.
♠
One shared vocabulary
Standard lines, hotspots, polarization, bluff allowance and Code Red textures are defined once and used across Coaching For Profits, Night Vision Expansion and the Training Camp.
♥
Preflop to river
Black Box handles preflop by player type, PIO Unlocked and Night Vision handle the flop and turn, and Ether and Coaching For Profits handle the river.
♦
Numbers you can rebuild
The Hand2Note, Holdem Manager 2 and PioSolver tutorials show you how to run the same reports on your own pool, so you can test every claim yourself.
♣
Mindset built in
The live streams, Performance Cycles, the Mental Game pack and the Training Camp tools keep you on the system after a downswing.
Recommended study order
An honest note on overlap. We compared every transcript. Nine Coaching For Profits lessons, the Tier 1 case studies, Standard Lines and Polarization, Simplified Strategy Development and Performance Cycles, also appear in Night Vision Expansion. In the Poker Detox bundle you pay for that content once. The estimated 47 hours already leave the repeats out.
Quick quiz
Test Your Exploit Instincts
Seven questions taken from the Poker Detox bundle lessons. Tap a question to see the answer and the lesson that explains it. If you can’t explain the answer yourself, that lesson is a good place to start.
01 · Which player type has the worst win rate in the pool: volatile fish, passive fish, nit reg or reg?
Volatile fish: high VPIP and high PFR. That makes them the most exploitable group, and Black Box Ultimate, Module 1 shows how to get the most from them preflop.
02 · Does rake matter more when the open is a min-raise or a 3x raise?
The smaller the open, the more the rake limits how wide you can open. Black Box Ultimate, Module 5 compares min-raise, 2.5x and 3x solves.
03 · Against a fish, do you need to adjust your river bluff catching for position and board texture?
Much less than you think. Ether Ultimate, Modules 2 and 3 show which data points matter against fish and which matter against regs.
04 · What share of your win rate comes from the 20% of spots where the pool is clearly imbalanced?
80% or more: the 80/20 rule that runs through Black Box and Ether. Finding those zones in your own pool is what Night Vision Expansion teaches.
05 · How many flops does a multi-flop aggregation report really need?
Night Vision Expansion, lesson 1.2 weighs accuracy against run time, from a 49-flop subset up to 153 flops and more.
06 · Which board textures does the Coaching For Profits system never bluff catch on?
Code Red textures, defined in Coaching For Profits, Tier 2.
07 · When you are not sure, why does the mind prefer to jam rather than fold?
Because in that moment, giving up the pot feels like the bigger loss. Mental Game, Part 4 takes this apart hand by hand.

Who the Poker Detox Bundle Is For
An honest answer saves you time and money.
Choose it if you…
- ✓play 6-max No-Limit Hold’em cash online, from micro stakes up
- ✓want a full exploit system instead of memorising solver outputs
- ✓use, or want to learn, Hand2Note, Holdem Manager 2 or PioSolver
- ✓keep losing the same pots on the river, or play well until the first downswing
Skip it if you…
- ✕play only tournaments or Omaha: every course here is NLHE cash
- ✕want fresh 2026 pool statistics: most video is from the 2017–2018 Hand2Note era, while the method teaches you to update the data yourself
- ✕want a single short course: this is eight full courses and a lot of study
- ✕will not run the reports or do the homework

Before you buy
Poker Detox Bundle: Questions Answered
The questions buyers ask most often.
Is the material too old to be useful?
Much of the video comes from the 2017–2018 Hand2Note era, and the pool statistics come from those years. Two things still make it worth having. First, the courses teach you to run the same research on your own pool, so you are not stuck with the old numbers. Second, the Large DB Barreling Study found that most hotspots from 2011–2012 still held years later. Mobius Cash Standard Lines is the 2024 edition.
Do I need Hand2Note, PioSolver or MonkerViewer?
You can learn the strategy without them. To repeat the research you will need a database tool (Hand2Note or Holdem Manager 2) and PioSolver. The Black Box solves open in MonkerViewer. Our Hand2Note setup guide covers a current pool.
Why buy the bundle instead of single courses?
The courses in the Poker Detox bundle are built to be studied together. They share one vocabulary, one data set and one standard line system, and the bundle costs less than buying all eight separately. It also includes the lessons shared between Coaching For Profits and Night Vision Expansion only once.
How do I pay and receive the files?
Payment is in crypto only. The steps are on our how to pay page, and first-time buyers can read how to buy cryptocurrency. Our team sends the files to you personally after payment. Other questions are answered in our FAQ.
