In order to improve your game it’s important to analyze the hands you have played. It also equally important to keep tabs on and analyze your opponent’s game play. One way of doing this by writing down all the errors you make and at the same time registering your opponent’s tendencies. Another much simpler solution is to let a software program save all the hands you play. From the saved information your able to analyze your own game play as well as keeping tabs on the competition. You can even get information of how your opponents play directly on screen during play which is very helpful.

There is lot´s of poker software on the market. Most of them are basic odds calculating software showing what hands you should play etc. We do not recommend that you buy any of these since there is much better poker software to be purchased. Of all the poker programs there are two that stick out. They are Pokertracker and Pokeroffice. Both programs download all the hands you play and give you ample opportunity to study your own as well as your opponent’s game play. They even present information on the screen about your opponents when you play. They take some time to learn but if you’re serious about your game this is the software to buy.

We (the authors of this homepage) use both these programs on a regular basis and believe that they are the best on the market. If you want to form your opinion you can read more at www.pokerlistings.com/poker-software-sites. Here you find a long list of poker programs.

The links to the poker software we recommend are www.pokertracker.com and www.pokeroffice.com. Both can be downloaded and there is a trial version available.

As we have said a poker program can be of invaluable help when improving your game and at the same time outsmarting your opponents!
