Research on the Hold 'em Odds

[Scardog]

Hey there. Does anyone know of some good links for research on calculating odds or I would assume Riverflop intends on having this here somewhere?

We are working on a deal with some of the software developers (yes the top tiers!) for some bundling or other promotions...stay tuned!

Careful how accurate those are. One little mistake in the software could lose someone a lot of money. I'd get that made by THE top codes.

Yup, we only engage the best gaming software developers in the world.. The founders' experience in IT and the Internet in general leads us to having some fairly significant contacts in the industry...

I like the following page for poker possibilities. It really does matter when you get to the table. Sometimes it's not always easy to make a call, by calculating the odds you have on making what you think is the strongest had makes it that little bit easier. Many people don't realise that even if you lose, but you made the right play based on the odds, you still win - and would win the money a lot more than the player making the bad move would. The bottom line is they just got lucky on that occasion. Can't put it simpler than that.

Thanks A Lot!

I've posted on this on another part of the site, if I do calculate odds I generally use Poker Tips - Texas Hold'em Strategy which is also good for strategy, but I use odds sparingly, mainly out of impatience and because I use intuition more. (I know that this probably cuts down my chances of winning!)

Some good resources there, thanks. Do you guys read any books on poker, or do you just learn everything online?

Karl, I've read several different books and also looked at online resources, Pokers a game that you just can't learn enough of

all u need to be able to do to calculate odds is be able to count your outs. Then use the rule of 4 and 2. if u dont know what that is do some research. not sure i should be giving out too many tips i will be playing against all of u soon
