Don't Just Take My Word for It. Hear It From Our Players


"The program taught me how to think for myself, not just follow answers. I now ask better questions, study more effectively, and solve problems in-game at a much higher level. The lessons even apply beyond poker. It's so comprehensive and it's genuinely one of the best investments I've ever made."

"Huge thanks to Wakko and Adam or the effort put into this program, it has completely changed how I see and play the game. I didn’t know wat to expect going in, but it goes way deeper than any program I’ve done before, it has blown my mind! Super grateful."
Rob - from break-even at 500nl to crushing 1-5knl

"Before The Mechanics, i felt stuck, lacked direction, and had no idea how to evolve as a player. The Mechanics Program completely changed that. It helped me shift my mindset, approach the game with clarity, and reignited my motivation. Over the last two years i earned over 500K both playing & coaching. The Mechanics Program didn’t just improve my game—it changed my life.”
Write your awesome label here.
Out of all the programs I’ve ever bought, Mechanics of Poker is by far the best. It’s dynamic, concrete, and incredibly well-structured. When I started, I was playing NL50 and NL100—now I’m taking shots at NL500 across multiple sites. The clarity and organization of this program are unmatched. Big thanks to Wakko and Adam for playing such an important role in my journey to high stakes.”
Before joining Mechanics of Poker, I was overwhelmed by study content and lacked structure. I’d jump between videos, hoping to improve, but never really knew what to focus on. The program gave me a clear path. I now know exactly how to study, what leaks to fix, and how to progress with confidence."
Alex - 200NL
Before MOP, I was just copying solver outputs without really knowing why. Now I actually understand the mechanics of EV, when and how to deviate, and how to think through spots independently. I’ve stopped relying on charts and now make confident, real-time decisions based on deep understanding."
Kenji- 500NL
I thought MOP was just another strategy course. But It turned out to be a full system for long-term poker success. The technical content is world-class, but what really changed the game for me was the mindset and performance coaching. I stopped tilting, became more focused, and even started improving off the tables. This isn’t just a poker program, it’s a complete transformation.”
dmitry - 1kNL
When I joined, I was stuck at 200NL and couldn’t break through. A year later, I was shot-taking 500NL and holding my own. Now, 500NL is my main game and I’m preparing for 1kNL. The coaching, feedback, and structure made the difference, it helped me level up so much faster than if i would have done it alone."

TheWakko
TheWakko has been a professional cash game player for 14+ years, grinding from freerolls to high-stakes online, earning over $1,000,000 along the way. He spent 8 years stuck at mid-stakes—until teaming up with Xplode7777 and Pokerkluka, which completely transformed his career. It wasn’t talent or IQ—it was a smarter, more effective approach to poker and professional growth. After reaching their goals, they began coaching this philosophy inside Poker Ambition’s CFP, which later evolved into The Mechanics of Poker Program. Today, TheWakko teaches the technical strategy, along with the management, mindset, and soft skills serious players need to move up and win at the highest level.

What skill levels should participants have to join the program?
The coaching program is designed to help semi-professional and professional poker players who play 100-500NL online or 5/5-10/20 live games reach higher stakes, and as such, it is quite advanced. If you are a recreational player or play below these stakes, chances are the program may be too advanced or above your budget for your needs. However, feel free to prove us wrong and apply to the program
What distinguishes the Mechanics of Poker 3.0 program from other coaching programs?
The Mechanics of Poker stands as the most comprehensive coaching program available, teaching all essential aspects needed for you to excel as a successful poker player.

Is the program suitable for online and live poker players?
Yes, our program is designed to benefit both online and live poker players. We focus on the "why" and the mechanics behind strategies, ensuring that our coaching is valuable to players in both environments. Our comprehensive approach provides insights and skills that are universally applicable, making it a versatile choice for players seeking improvement in any poker setting.
Is the program suitable for MTT players or focused on Cash-games?
Our program is suitable for MTT players as we focus on the mechanics, the "why" behind strategies. It's the same game; however, the variables are often different. For example, you play with wider ranges due to antes and no rake which changes the interaction and equities on different boards. You encounter lower SPR situations more frequently, altering the preferred strategy. However, the concepts behind the strategies are what we teach, and those remain the same regardless of format or even game type (we have had numerous MTT players and even some PLO players go through our program and found it very helpful).
Do i need any prior solver or data analyses knowledge to join the program?
While it might help if you are familiar with Solver tools and data programs like H2N or HM, it's definitely not a must. In the program, we will explain the most important things you need to know that these programs can teach you in order to make more progress in your poker career.

The program is self-paced, allowing you to progress at your own speed.
