Just started using trial PT4, yes it is very distracting because I'm not used to it. Don't play for a lot of $ when you start to use it, freerolls are best. Ha ha
I'm newbie too, Anyone using pokerstove? Any other tools recommended? Thanks
READ VERY CAREFULLY THE T&C OF FREE SOFTWARE... They are spying on your poker tactics and will use against you some day who knows if they are keylogging you.. .Never trust FREE competitor when there is paid dominant competitors... In my honest opinion...If you want something like pokerstove you must try out Equilab. For me is better than pokerstove. You can download it for free. It is a powerful poker tool.
Also ICMizer has a free version and Flopzilla. I haven't used Flopzilla so far but is well known.
Hope I helped you a little bit!
