I think you will agree with me when I say:
Poker content can be quite EXPENSIVE.
Especially, when your budget is tight and you rather spend your money on playing poker.
But…
There are other options than paying for your poker content.
So, in this article, I will show you the best poker content you can get for free by downloading it as torrent files.
But, before that a few words of caution regarding torrents.
- Downloading copyrighted content is illegal in most countries
- Torrent sites are known for tons of ads and malware, please consider using an ad-blocker
- qBittorrent is a free and open source BitTorrent client you can use to download poker torrents
- Beware of suspicious files in the torrents, only open the files you trust

These were the best poker torrents I found with regards to seeders and content, at the time of writing this.
The poker books content alone should keep you busy and hopefully also improve your poker skills.
You can also explore and find your own poker torrents by browsing these sites:
A word of caution:
If you Google “poker torrents” you will come across a site called BestPokerTorrents.
Avoid that site.
Why?
They won’t allow you to download their torrents without paying them. Which destroys the whole purpose of getting poker content for free. If you are willing to pay, it is much better to do so for the content creators.

Synopsis of Small Stakes Hold'em: Winning Big with Expert Play
For today's poker players, Texas hold 'em is the game. Every day, tens of thousands of small stakes hold 'em games are played all over the world in homes, card rooms, and on the Internet. These games can be very profitable -- if you play well. But most people don't play well and end up leaving their money on the table.
Small Stakes Hold 'em: Winning Big with Expert Play explains everything you need to be a big winner. Unlike many other books about small stakes games, it teaches the aggressive and attacking style used by all professional players. However, it does not simply tell you to play aggressively; it shows you exactly how to make expert decisions through numerous clear and detailed examples.
Small Stakes Hold 'em teaches you to think like a professional player. Topics include implied odds, pot equity, speculative hands, position, the importance of being suited, hand categories, counting outs, evaluating the flop, large pots versus small pots, protecting your hand, betting for value on the river, and playing overcards. In addition, after you learn the winning concepts, test your skills with over fifty hand quizzes that present you with common and critical hold 'em decisions. Choose your action, then compare it to the authors' play and reasoning.
This text presents cutting-edge ideas in straightforward language. It is the most thorough and accurate discussion of small stakes hold 'em available. Your opponents will read this book; make sure you do, too!
Excerpt from the Book Winning Big with Expert Play: Pairs Smaller than Top Pair
When you have a pair smaller than top pair, the probability that you have the best hand is obviously reduced. You usually play these hands under one of two circumstances:
- No one has shown much strength, so you might have the best hand.
- The pot is large, and you are drawing to a probable winner.
on a flop of
This is a very strong hand. You have middle pair, ace kicker, and the nut-flush draw. If no one has a queen, you will usually have the best hand. Even if you are behind to someone with a queen (but not ace-queen), you have fourteen outs (3 aces, 2 sevens, and 9 hearts) to overtake him. Even against a large field, you will often win. You should usually raise and reraise with this hand on the flop, especially against multiple opponents. With so many outs you will usually have a lot of pot equity, even if you do not currently have the best hand.
on a flop of
This is a strong hand. You have bottom pair with a small flush draw. Although obviously not as strong as the previous example, this is still a robust holding. Your bottom pair, no kicker is not likely to be the best hand unless you are heads-up, but you still have a fourteen out draw. Any time you flop a pair and a flush draw, you have a strong hand.
on a flop of
This is a strong hand (though it is on the low end of that category). You have a pocket pair much higher than middle pair. If you have the best hand, you are unlikely to be outdrawn. Only one additional overcard can come, and there are no straight or flush draws. If someone has a king, however, you are drawing to two outs.
on a flop of
Hold'em Denim
This is a marginal hand. You have middle pair, ace kicker. You may have the best hand. If you do not, you have five outs to two pair or trips and a backdoor flush draw. Between this hand and the previous one, if no one has a king, the queens hand is stronger; fewer overcards can outdraw you. But if someone does have a king, this hand is stronger, since you have more outs.
on a flop of
This is a marginal hand. You have a pocket pair higher than middle pair. This hand combines the weakness to overcards of the ace-seven hand with the lack of outs of the queens hand. Despite being a higher-ranking poker hand than ace-seven (a pair of eights versus a pair of sevens), this hand is clearly inferior to both the queens and the ace-seven hands. (For a similar example, see p. 88 of The Theory of Poker by David Sklansky.)
on a flop of
This is a poor to marginal hand. You have a pocket pair higher than middle pair. You may have the best hand. If you do, the three big cards and two-flush are dangerous. They make it likely for someone to have flopped a pair or a straight or flush draw (though you do hold two 'stopper' cards for many of the possible straights). If behind, you are drawing to two outs and a backdoor straight draw.
on a flop of
This is a poor hand. You have bottom pair and the bottom end of a one-card gutshot. You are unlikely to have the best hand. If you catch a nine, anyone with a bigger two pair or a queen beats you. If you catch a queen, anyone with an ace makes a bigger straight. This hand will make a second-best hand far more often than it makes the best hand, and in most circumstances you should fold it.
on a flop of
Hold'em Game
This is a poor hand. You have a pocket pair higher than bottom pair. You are unlikely to have the best hand. If you do, someone could catch a flush, straight, or one of seven overcards to beat you. If you are behind, you have two outs to improve. One of those outs, the 6d, puts three to a flush on board. In a multiway pot your hand is terrible (although you should take a card off getting 30-to-1 odds or so which sometimes happens).
