ahk scripts

ok so I've been grinding somewhat successfully for a while now.....playing 4 to 6 tables at once on stars....I think its about time for me to get an ahk script....my question to you is what scripts do you all use and which do you think would be good for me? I'm currently playing nl ring games.....thx in advance guys...

I 6table 6max.

I use Table Ninja, which is not free like the ahk scripts but is similar - I get the most value out of default bet sizing and bringing tables into focus when I need to act. Default bet sizing can be set differently pf and for every street, use scroll wheel to change the default bet size.

Pardon my ignorance: What is an ahk script and what is it used for?

ahk stands for auto hot key......it makes multitabling easier basically
instead of clicking 5 times or using the wheel to make a pfr, you hit the b button etc.......

To be more specific, AutoHotKey (AHK) is a utility that allows you to create keystroke and mouse "macros" to perform a series of operations with a simple keystroke or other trigger. It has evolved into a complete interface control scripting language, and is quite powerful. It has nothing itself to do with poker, it's just a general tool that has been leveraged heavily in the online poker community to automate a lot of tasks that typically take a lot of manual keying or clicking. It's especially popular with multi-tablers. Some common uses for it is to automatically layout and manipulate your tables onscreen, automatically input your favorite bet amounts, etc.

You can download a number of ready-made AHK poker scripts at Overcards.com

+1 Table Ninja is great.

Ah -- that is good to know about. poker stars multi-tabling in particular is a pain because you often have to click twice on a table to do anything. I assume AHK would cut that out? But--- is it like a bot?

no you still control the actions 100% its just a faster way of doing things. like pressing A to change and place the bet to 1/4 pot.

Actually the double click is something you can control under the options tab in the lobby....that annoyed me for a while...but it does prevent you from misclicks.

I was at the casino yesterday and picked up the pokerplayer newspaper and saw a column mentioning Table Ninja for pokerstars. I went to the site and saw they got a free download for full tilt too. I play a hell of a lot more cash tables on tilt than stars as I've been ironman on tilt each month this year. This Ninja thing is amazing! I had emailed fulltilt support a few months ago to see if they had any keyboard shortcuts like the f2 f3 f4 thing to change your avatar emotions. Why not have f5 f6 f7 check fold raise or something. They said we will take your recommendation under consideration.

I used the table ninja free download today during happy hour. I was on 4 tablees and it was awesome. You can make any keys you want be the shortcuts so I got the most common click I had to make be the spacebar for check/fold. C for call, R for raise/bet, tab to go cycle thru tables, f7 to turn the shortcut features off for when I'm writing notes on the donks, etc

I highly recommend using table ninja. I rarely even touched the mouse for 2 hours of play
