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!
