What Poker Royalty Has to Say About Doug Polk's Game

Garrett Adelstein

High Stakes Poker Legend

Doug is the rare combination of someone who is extremely bright whose intelligence is superseded only by his work ethic.

His commitment to every endeavor unmatched, I would be shocked if this course doesn’t immediately become the gold standard for mastering heads-up NL, a game I dedicated a decade of my life to.

Daniel Negreanu

Six-Time WSOP Bracelet Winner

Doug isn’t afraid to put lots of chips in the pot in big spots running bluffs for heaps which is one of the reasons he is tough to play against.

He will put you in really bad spots forcing you to make some really light calls and that’s uncomfortable and difficult for anyone to play against.

Phil Hellmuth

17-Time WSOP Bracelet Winner

Doug Polk is, without a doubt, one of the best heads up poker players in the world

Joe Ingram

Poker Pro & Creator

Doug Polk is the best heads-up No Limit Challenge competitor in the history of Heads-Up No Limit Challenges.

Debatably the best heads-up No Limit Hold'em player of all time.
