Overview of the Lucid Poker App and Features
A quick walkthrough of the Lucid Poker app: what each feature does, what's free, and where to find everything on desktop and mobile.
How It Works
When you open Lucid Poker, the home screen gives you a set of widgets, each pointing to a core feature of the app. This article walks through each one so you know where to go and what to expect.
Navigation works the same way on both platforms. On desktop, use the sidebar. On mobile, use the bottom bar. The main sections are Cardle, Drill, and Sim Browser.
Features
Cardle
The Cardle widget is the most prominent feature on the home screen. Every day, Lucid drops a new guided five-hand quiz. You play one hand, get scored against the GTO solution, and build your streak over time.
Cardle is free for all users. You can play the daily Cardle every day and track your streak without a Pro subscription. Start a free trial to access the backlog of 500+ additional Cardle quizzes.
Leaderboard
The Leaderboard lets you compete against players worldwide for the highest Cardle score. Lucid runs monthly prizes, which have included trips to play live tournaments and Visa gift cards. Lucid merch is also given out regularly.
Practice: Custom Drills and Preflop Trainer
The practice widget on the home screen gives you two options:
- Custom Drills: Build a targeted drill for any postflop situation. This is a Pro feature. Start a free trial to access it.
- Preflop GTO Trainer: Free for all users. Practice preflop decisions and get instant feedback. No subscription required.
Sim Browser
The Sim Browser is accessible from the sidebar on desktop or the bottom bar on mobile. It lets you browse complete, cutting-edge solver strategies in a few clicks.
Preflop ranges in the Sim Browser are completely free for every game type, including cash games, MTTs, and more. You can also browse up to five postflop situations per day on the free plan. Upgrade to Pro for unlimited postflop access.
Settings
Tap the gear icon to open Settings. From there you can change your color scheme, update your avatar, and edit the display name that appears on the leaderboard.
