Does anyone use Omaha Indicator or Tournamenet Indicator software

I have used the free version of Omaha Indicator but I have never used TI or OI for real money games.

The new version of Tournament Indicator has a built in HUD. It also shows M Zone right there in the software.

Has anyone used these? I have an offer to get both of these for a good price ($60 off the original price) if purchased seperately and was wondering what everyone's thoughts were on this software.

I mainly play SnGs and MTTs

Tournament Indicator is nice, but I think HEM and PT3 have more stats, and are more customizable. I know you can get TI for free using their promo code with different sites, I did it for bodog, so that's a pretty good deal.

In order to get TI for free you sign up at that site but it only works at that site for the first 500 hands or something like that. I am interested in TI and OI because they offer stats like Pot odds and outs.

I am cashing out my FTP account and I am trying to figure out if I should deposit that money somewhere else or use it for Poker Software

Sort of. You can use it on that site and that site only until you've seen X number of flops (that is what's considered a hand by TI). After that, you can use it on other sites. So if I had finished my hand requirement on Bodog, I could have then used it on Tilt or Stars.

If you don't have any other poker software, then I would go ahead and get some. I play SNG's and I use PT3, it's very helpful. I like the HUD, plus more importantly, PT3 has tools that allow you to analyze your game away from the table, which TI doesn't have (or I don't know how to use).

Personally I think the money would be much better invested in a PokerTraining site membership.

I think I am ok with that possibility. Do you know of any that accept FTP player to player transfers as a method of payment.

FWIW I played in 4 SnGs today using a trial license of Omaha Indicator and placed in the money on all four.

I looked more into this and while several good sites do money transfers through FTP the initiation fee for all of them is way more than I would like to pay / can get the software for / have in my FTP account to spare.

Back to the drawing board

The only good thing I found with TI, was that it showed the villains hole cards immediately after the hand ended. I've tried most poker software and find that it leads you into a false sense of security. TI bases your decisions on stack size and proximity to the cash, irrelavent to your cards. Not always the best move to make as it doesn't take into account your seat position.

That's good advice that people should always follow for any software. These tools are guides. They are not intended to replace knowledge. I loke that I can see my outs but I also understand that in most cases (especially in PLO/8) some of these outs will hurt me more than they help me. I also understand that if is says my hand is an 85% favorite to win low and I am holding A3 and an A2 is most likely out there I am folding a lot of the time.

Point is I would never rely 100% on the software but it is nice as a guide and especially when I have other tables going and or multi tasking for whatever reason.
