Potential Article: How to use PokerStove

#1 19th February 2008, 4:58 PM

I use PokerStove a lot when I'm analyzing hands. I figure that perhaps an introductory article on how to use it and what to use it for might be in order for those of us that are still stuck on using the-rule-of-2-and-4 even when they're analyzing hands away from the table.

What do you think?

And what questions would you like me to address/answer in the article?

Great idea FP, I use it occasionally and an article on it's full merits would be ideal.

#3 19th February 2008, 5:09 PM

Yes please

I have it sitting as an unused icon on my desktop at the moment, so anything would help, really...

Related comment: Article section will be reorganised/redone soon!

Yep please do FP
I mostly use it when I'm deep on tournaments but i think i could probably make a more profitable use of PokerStove.
So everything you could share with us on how you use it will be a goldmine for me.

You are probably and old pro at it now FP, but if you could remember how the learning process went for you, and relate that it would be good.

Obviously how to basically use the program first, but then what for you was the first positive learning experience about the data involved. Then maybe the second, third, etc, until you get to maybe 5 or 10 different things, and lump those into an 'in the beginning' section.

My unused icon has been moved to the 'unused icons' folder.

I use it a lot, it is definitely very useful, this would be a good article to do.

#8 19th February 2008, 7:07 PM

Yes please, Fredrik.

Great idea for an article, yep.

#10 20th February 2008, 12:30 AM

Go for it FP. I've used it a little, but tbh I'm not well versed in it. I realize it's a pretty simple tool in general, but any tips/tricks you have to share in an article would be great.

Excellent idea, FP. I used it a bit and had no idea what I was doing. The PokerStove's help files & user's manual are quite lacking, IIRC. Then the Pokerstove site was down for a while, so I uninstalled it. I'd re-install it if I knew what I was doing.

FP,

Did you really expect dozens of people to pop up in here saying "For the love of God don't do it!".

Seriously, you're an excellent writer, do it! I'm kinda interested to see what you come up with aside from the obvious (basically "put villain on range, put range into pstove, voila").

#13 20th February 2008, 2:30 AM

Yes plz Swedishbear.

It took me about 30 seconds to figure out how to put a range of hands in, what's so hard about it?

Yeah, it took me a little longer... like 31 seconds

Yes, that would be very useful to newbies like myself.

List of the functions.
List of possible computations.
And how to use.
Thanks
