Which chart do you need?
Most people come to a chart with one of three questions. If you are still learning which hand beats which, you want the hand order rather than a strategy chart: the rankings settle who wins at showdown and nothing else. Once you know the order and the question is whether to put money in before the flop, you want an opening chart, read by your seat. And if you are short in a tournament with the pot folded to you, both of those stop applying, because under about 12 big blinds your real choice is all in or fold. The cheat sheet sits across all three: one page with the rankings, the common odds and where you sit. Find your question in the table below, and come back for the next one when it turns up.
| What you are trying to do | The chart to open |

| Decide what to raise before the flop | Preflop charts |
| Play a short stack in a tournament | Push/fold charts |
How to use a poker chart
A chart is a memory aid, not a rulebook. Read it away from the table, where you have time to take in the whole shape of it. Check yourself against it after a session instead of during one, then drill the hands on the edges, because the middle of a range is rarely the part anyone gets wrong. Keep the assumptions in view too: every chart was built for a table size, a stack depth and a raise size. When the game in front of you breaks those, the chart is a starting point and your read is the answer.
Practice any of these in the app
A chart tells you the answer. What it cannot do is make the answer automatic, and these decisions come at you in a few seconds at a time, several times an orbit. Poker Skill turns them into short daily reps and tells you why an answer was right, so the chart stops being something you look up. Free to start, no wagering.
