We already spoke about the usefulness of softwares that collect statistical data and info about your opponents at the online poker tables. If you are a serious online poker player, you just have to use one of those products, like Holdem Manager 2, HUD or similar.
But what about the softwares that let you evaluate your decisions as a player? Are they worth the money? The answer is yes, but ... Let's look at what those tools can do and what they cannot do.
Icmizer Crack -. In the final installment of John's Swordfish series, he uses ICMizer to discuss. John takes a crack at the dynamics of stack sizes and how to be aware of the. 1 PIOSOLVER EDGE cracked ( $199.99, 2 keys = $349.00, 10 keys. Videos 13.2Gb); BEST POKER COACHING BPC SNG - ICM, ICMizer. ICMIZER can analyse MTT situations for up to 60 players. The ICMIZER range editor is powerful and easy to use. You can include or exclude any individual preflop hand in any range; the range editor supports copying and pasting ranges as text; players can also save ranges that they use often - this allows easy access from the saved ranges tab.
All of the above tools are primarily being used to evaluat specific situations outside the actual sessions, but they can also be used during the game, provided you have enough time. In a live game of course they are not allowed, since the use of tablets, smartphones or laptops is always forbidden.
You can input any poker hand before or after the flop and calculate how much your own equity is - for example, to calculate what your percentage is with JTS against AKo. These are the basics, but it gets much more interesting when you define 'Ranges' by either selecting an area like 'the top 25% of all hands' and then seeing which hands are included in this range and how your own hand plays against his range, or you could manually add specific hands and do the same.
Furthermore, you can import hand histories and calculate your own chances in a hand that has already been played, in order to find out whether you have played optimally. This is a lot of work, but it helps to find leaks in your own game.

In practice, these tools can be a great help. Let us assume you have a player with a large number of statistics, e.g. according to Holdem Manager 2, the player often raises first-in - let's assume 25% of all hands. Flopzilla will tell you that a 25% first-in raise rate means that he raises all Pocket Pairs, all suited connectors from 56s upwards, A4s and better, A9o and better. K9s, Q9s as well as all Broadway Hands.
Now you can assess your own hand and see how often you win against this range. In theory it would be correct to 3-bet if your hand has more than 50% equity against this hand range - mainly because you have additional fold equity (ie the possibility exists for the opponent fold preflop against my 3-bet, and because as the 3-Bettor you will often win the pot after the flop by c-betting.
So far, so good - but what about the shortcomings of those tools?
Well, first of all, these tools work better for cashgames. In a tournament there are other considerations, namely, your survival in the tournament, or the question of how much of your stack you should risk. In a cashgame, you can always reload, and mathematically correct play is important, because your opponent would otherwise be able to detect weaknesses and exploit them again and again (exploitative play).
In a tournament, the preservation of your own stack is important, especially before the bubble and if you are already in the money and pay rises make survival lucrative. Getting yourself into 55/45% situations for all your chips over and over again inevitably leads to the loss of all your chips.
A further big problem is when, for example, ICMIZER is used to its full potential - this may sound counter-intuitive, but let me show you why:
Icmizer Review
Let's assume my opponent still has 10 BB, is in middle position, the hand is unraised and he goes all-in. Everyone folds and I have K9s on the big blind, with a stack of 20 big blinds. With ICMIZER I could now calculate with which hands my opponent should go all-in and make a profit 'in theory', then put my hand against it and I would find that a call would be mathematically correct, as my call would win me XXX chips on average.

Here, however, a powerful software such as ICMIZER reaches its limits, because:
- Can I really assume that the opponent actually goes all-in with the theoretically correct range calculated by ICMIZER? Maybe the guy has no idea about ICMIZER or push/fold charts? If his all-in range is significantly tighter, then this ICMIZER calculation is totally useless to me. I can still calculate my hand against the tighter range, but I cannot have the software pick my opponents range for me!
- What happens when I lose the hand? I would go from 20 BB to 10 BB. With 20 BB, I have much more options available in the tournament (for example a preflop raise with a subsequent C-Bet), while with only 10 BB I am almost always left with one decision - all-in or fold. That means that my stack size before and after the hand is important too. If the all-in were for 10 BB while I have a 50 BB stack, a call with 60% equity would certainly be correct.

Conclusion:

These softwares are are excellent tools for training and analysis purposes (especially Flopzilla and ICMIZER), but for the actual decision, you must always include other aspects when making a decision. Especially in a tournament it would be a serious mistake to rely on the recommendations of such tools only!
