Poker Academy offers a "standard" version for ~$30.00. That's what I used when I first started to learn limit hold'em.

PA is really only useful for limit hold'em, not NL or tournaments. But FWIW, rock-solid limit hold'em is a great foundation to build your poker education on.

Also, you can play freeroll SnGs at Poker Academy On-Line. That's a great way to learn those for no money.

Also, the AI takes ~250 hands to "learn" how you play. You'll create a profile, then crush the game for ~200 hands. Don't let this early success fool you. You aren't that good, and PA isn't that bad. Continue playing under the same profile and you'll get PA's best game. But if you create a new profile then PA starts all over from the beginning.
