Poker Software

Since online poker exists there are 3rd party software tools available for the players.

The first examples were poker databases which collect data from your handhistories and then show you statistics about your opponents during you are playing.

Popular are also odds calculators or tools which help the players to improve their handling of the online poker tables.

With the years the poker rooms considered some of these programs to be unwanted on their site, because they offer the players who use them an "unfair advantage".

Within this category are so called poker bots, which are playing automatically.

We are giving you here an overview of the existing software and tell you which tools you are allowed to use and which not.

The software categories here are:

• Poker Tracking Software
• Poker Tools
• Forbidden Poker Software

You can use all this software, even for the prohibited programs there are often stealth possibilities. But this is at your own risk. You must calculate the EV between the higher profits you are making and the probability to lose your account or bankroll.
