I notice indicators such as Holdem Indicator and Magic Holdem give you a card by card update on your percentage chance to win a hand, and i'm curious as how this is calculated in these types of software?

Does it just calculate what percentage chance KK has for instance against any range of hands? Because I notice with these softwares that the percentage chance also changes depending on the board texture and number of players involved.

Are you talking about if both hands are known? If so, percentages can be calculated mathematically and/or via extensive simulation. I'm not familiar with the specific software you're referencing, so not sure specifically.
