Curious to hear some responses from players that use HUDs as well as players that do not.
I personally have never used any software to "help" me while playing online, but I find it interesting that it is so widely accepted, and in fact even encouraged to use these types of software.
All in all, the decision you make during a hand is up to you, not the software. But I do believe the software can have a big influence on what players end up doing. In years past, poker was a much more simple game, but times have changed. Do you think this is due to these new HUDs? Do you think you have an edge over an opponent while using a HUD?
Finally, do you think it is better or worse for the game, and how do you think this software will evolve in the future for poker?
