Can you promote here?
Promotion is allowed only with moderator permission (or inside designated threads). A short, honest modmail before posting costs two minutes and functions as a safe-conduct pass; skipping it is the most common avoidable removal.
From the rules · Some users note you "can’t name" certain solvers/apps here — check subreddit guidance or ask mods before naming or promoting software.
Links
The rules clearly allow links. A plain-text mention still often outperforms a URL from a young account.
What this community rewards
Dominant post formats: question, discussion, story
Headline: short question or compact hand-history (e.g., “How do I…?”, “Hand at 2/5/10”). Write in first person for hand reviews/anecdotes and neutral/informative for study posts. Typical length: a paragraph plus a clear hand history or specific question. Tone: informal, practical, slightly humorous. Upvoted: clear, specific hand histories, concrete study questions, well-explained spots. Avoid blatant product pitches — ask moderators before promoting tools.
Arriving in the local format matters: cross-posting the same text everywhere reads as tourist instantly. The wider method is in the Reddit playbook.
Classified mechanically from the community's published rules and recent top posts, last checked September 2026. Rules change and moderators have the final say: verify at r/poker_theory's rules page before posting anything that matters.
Thread Otter checks this before every send
These profiles power the product: promo-banned communities never receive a promotional draft, drafts arrive in the local format, and a fact-check gate plus human pacing protect the account doing the talking.
