Do you use any trainers to improve your game?

[ipagan]

Hello folks 👋

I heard that pro players are using different software and services to learn and improve their game. So do you use any of them and can tell is it useful and maybe advice something?

I know that there are softwares like ICMizer or Hand2note, but they are not friendly for amateurs and newbies like me

Thank you!

Hello! These are two different programs. These programs are not difficult to use, so they can be used by beginners as well. The ICMizer helps you understand whether your push or fold decision is correct. Hand2Note collects statistics of your game and other players. This program gives an idea of the strategy of the game, for this you need a large number of hands played, at least 10,000. The sooner you start using this program, the better. These programs are essential if you play poker seriously and want to achieve good results. On the use of programs there are reviews on YouTube, it's not difficult to figure it out. Good luck!

i dont take it that serious where i want to use software.

You have noticed quite correctly. Many players use programs to improve their game. Moreover, streamers use programs right during the game. I've seen it, but I've never used it myself.
Only books and hand analysis.

no, I use my head sometimes a calculator to calculate some data, and I mostly play myself without using any pieces

Equilab is a good piece of free software you can use to work out equities v hands and ranges, plus has training tools

Haven't tried trainers yet. I do watch training videos though.

There are a ton of options, depending on what you're looking for. For trainers I've used DTO, Pairred, Preflop Academy, Odin Poker, and Preflop+ (an iOS App). The best tool from my experience has been GTO Wizard, which has a lot of free features whereas the other Apps lock most of their functionality behind a pay wall. I'd recommend checking it out.

 

[Risto234]

No. Never. I dont need any help from helping tools ...

Oh nah I did use software sometimes, but no not really, I have most knowledge in my head and most things I get wrong, are usually marginal.

Thanks! Checked out Preflop+ and its very helpful app. I heared about GTO Wizard and I use (ok, trying to use) something similar to it - gtobase, it has +/- same range I suppose...

Don't you think that if pros are using them, then it might be really helpful to figuire out some questions for sure?

Hi.
I don't use any additional software. The game is great as it is. I personally have no need for such additional programs.

 

[DiegoRamos1]

Hello! I didn't know that such programs existed. Interesting topic

 

[jonaselloco]

Although I think it's good to learn in courses, or in books or sites about strategies, I really don't believe too much in training or programs.
Assuming that a tremendous bad beat like the one that happened to me last weekend in PS happens to you, what can a coach or a program tell you about this??? I played bad???
Actually daily practice is the best training for me at least.
Greetings friend, and well, I hope the programs or coaches will help you if you hire them

I don't use any software, I just play, gain experience, improve my skills and of course learn from my mistakes

 

[FrizzaoR]

software experience can be usefull on live vames?

Thank you!

it is way more than just software
It can only get you so far

The solver tells you what it did
not why

Your brain is way better than any program
and yeah it can be overwhelming at first

but just do it anyways

very much yes

the game is great you are sooo right!

but if the information is available and is being used by my opponents

I'd take a look

I'd take a look

I totally agree with you bro! I think you should learn from programs or charts just simply because your opponents are doing this as well! And about solver I think that it may help you not to stuck with some sort of difficult descisions during the game...Yes, it doesn't say why you should do this or that, but the simple explanation that this action just has more expected value mathematically based on a milion deals. And you just doesn't have to overthink some difficult situations in the game
