Why Listen to Dave?

Dave Converse has played in over 1,050 low and mid-stakes tournaments across Manitoba, Calgary, Vancouver, and Montreal — cashing in nearly 22% of them (230 cashes) over a 12-year span. That's not luck. That's the result of thousands of hours of study, practice, and dedication to the game.

Dave has studied numerous poker books, followed top poker vloggers, received professional coaching, and watched thousands of hours of poker videos and live gameplay. He brings a well-rounded, deeply researched perspective to every concept he teaches.

Beyond his own play, Dave is the source behind poker content blogs for the Manitoba Poker Network and the Converse on the Felt Facebook group — where he publishes weekly posts covering TDA rules, terminology, hand breakdowns, gameplay strategy, poker history, and much more.

His mission has always been simple: "Help improve the general knowledge base of the poker community and give players — new and experienced alike — the information they need to play better and feel more confident at the table."

On The Felt is the next step in that mission. Whether you're sitting down at your first tournament or grinding the mid-stakes circuit, this app was built to give you a real edge.

"I think the On The Felt app will help people achieve their goals and be more confident at the poker table."
