Poker Tracker 2 used to support Betfair Poker. PokerTracker 3 though didn't. Betfair poker players are using Holdem Manager as the only online poker software that enables tracking of Betfair Poker. Until now, since Poker Tracker 3 latest beta release includes support for this poker room. If you have been a Poker Tracker user and waited for months until they support Betfair poker, this is great news.

Adding important poker stats in your poker HUD can increase your poker bankroll. A poker HUD, or poker Heads-Up-Display, is a poker software of online poker player stats that show up around the player's nickname while you play. Those poker statistics help you make the correct play and decision leading to bigger poker winnings. The poker hud can also assist in multitabling, thus playing a lot more poker hands simultaneously, since by just looking at the online poker stats you immediately know what type of poker player he is. Here is my recommended poker hud layout.

I recently just started working with Texas Calculatem and I immediately noticed that the software is very similar (if not identical) to Calculatem Pro. Texas Calculatem is software designed to improve the skills and knowledge of its users so that they can become long term successful poker players. Texas Calculatem has all the features a player could want and it will teach you the fundamentals of the game; it's almost as if there is a real life professional giving you tips and advice. Texas Calculatem displays your whole cards on its software and will tell you what you ‘should' do in the hand whether that is call, fold, or raise. It bases its decision on your position on the table, the hand you are holding, and also it does take into account the pot odds within the hand. I may be wrong on this but I would imagine there many players out there who just go through the motions when they play and they don't really think about anything else besides the hand they are holding. With Texas Calculatem on your side this will make you think about what is going on the table with a little more depth to it. Texas Calculatem has many great features so allow me to discuss them for you.

Looking for an edge while you sit down to play some online poker? Well if that is the case then the Holdem Genius software could be what you are looking for to take your game to the next level. Holdem Genius helps train if you will the players that use the software to become better overall poker players. Once you download the software you must first open Holdem Genius then the software will ask you what poker site you would like to connect with and then you proceed to do so. Right now for my trial run I have connected Holdem Genius to my Full Tilt Poker software to see how it really works and to make the assessment if it is worth my time.

Calculatem Pro is software in which it is designed to help improve the skills of the people that use it by giving them the information that is needed to succeed in poker. Calculatem Pro tells its users whether or not to call, raise, or to simply throw the hand away. It bases its decision on your position on the table and the hand you are holding at the time. Along with giving you the advice on deciding what source of action to do it also contains many more important features. Calculatem Pro gives your hand rank, tells you your hand strength throughout the hand, gives the odds that you will have the best hand on the flop, shows the number of outs you have to make your hand and Calculatem Pro also shows the percentage of pot vs. call. There is a lot of information that is being given to you but throughout the course of a poker hand this information is vital if you would like to be a consistent winner at the game of poker.

I formatted both my desktop and laptop yesterday and today I did a fresh install of the newest beta version of Pokertracker 3, although there is a stable version of this online poker software as well. I have been using Poker Tracker 2 with PokerAce HUD for over 3 years and decided to make the move, since there are more useful stats in the PT3 nowadays, there's been huge improvement regarding the HUD and importing hands in the online poker database is known to need less time to complete. So, I started to import a directory of more than 1 million hand histories and 3 hours later the import actions have finished.

Knowledge is power in poker. A Poker HUD can offer plenty. How about having information for each opponent at your table displayed directly onto the poker table for your benefit? Information that includes how often they call or raise and how aggressive they are. Ever wondered how to identify the pro player and the fish in a matter of seconds by looking at a couple of numbers? Fortunately there are a few HUD (heads-up display) programs available for your convenience but the issue isn't which one to choose. Most of the players have trouble selecting the appropriate stats and HUD layout.

What stats do you display on your PokerAce HUD, and how do you arrange them? Here is my answer...

Today I'll show how we can make use of an excellent article written in 2+2 forums about finding leaks in our game with the aid of Poker Tracker. It is not necessary to read the article, since I'll discuss each point separately here accompanied by my personal statistics. If you do have the application you can check your own stats in the end or you can simply see how a poker player can improve his skills by studying himself. My analysis will be based on the hands I played this year at 6-max No Limit poker tables (233,579 hands).

When we play poker online, we either press buttons or type in numbers. We constantly have our hands on the mouse or the keyboard in order to act in time, while at the same time we are thinking about our game. Maybe you can play perfectly and not getting tired but that is not the case for others. Most players find it difficult to calculate bet sizes compared to the pot, while others multitable over 4 tables and find it difficult to reload their chips over and over again. Fortunately, there is help available.

Although the following programs have been around for quite some time and I myself use them for many months, it seems that many experienced players neglect them while new ones haven't heard of them. Let's take a look at the most useful ones. Remember, they are all free to use.

Today my computer informed me that there were windows updates I should download and I thought to take a look, since I usually never check what these updates are. Apart from the Definition Update for Windows Defender, I was expected to download 2 Windows Ultimate Extras which were available to install. While the first (DreamScene) doesn't interest me, the second one was a big surprise for me! It was a Hold Em Poker Game!
