Poker EdgeHas anyone ever used/using poker edge for HUSNG?? I downloaded the free trial and am not sure as to whether I'll find it helpful or not! |

most of these programs are quite bad from what i've seen!i would just work on your game rather than get a program to tell you what to do imo! | ||

poker edge doesn't tell you what to do.
Every hand you or any other member plays goes into their database, you then play with a customizable hud similar to HEM, the idea being when you sit at your table you have stats based on lots of hands. I used the trial version last year for sngs, but found it very heavy on the system and lagged with more than 4 tables open, which is pointless when you play 12 tables. It was also $20 per month Against ALL sites terms of usage and Hard work keeping up with security with regular FT updates mainly only useful for cash games, I don't know how big the data base of members is, but if you don't use FT/PS then you normally end up on a table of players with no stats if you play sngs. IDK, but if you used the trial and found it useful and had good stats then why not I guess. If you play lots of shootouts, then at least you can datamine the other table(s) and get an initial player type insight I guess. |

+1 for lagging! like my mouse has a mind of its own sometimes! but i dont multi-table so not a major issue. $20 a month could be justified if it gave a a big enough edge i suppose? I haven't really been able to play the last couple weeks, i watched my dad use it for HU and some of the stats were really usefull. %folded to cbet on river, %folded to cbet on flop etc. I think it gives you an idea of player type from the off aswel and gives you a better idea of exactly how tight/loose a tight/loose player is. But i feel very lazy using this and don't think i'd get the same satisfaction from winning....but then winning is winning maybe lol maybe ill give it a go, just wanted to see if anyone else found it handy. |

is it the same as sharkscope?....as in... its ok to use if you dont mention it | ||

I think stars/ft take using this fairly seriously. You have to launch the poker room through poker edge to avoid the security on stars. If i opened stars then tried to open poker edge i dont think it would let me | ||

Well i have decided that poker edge can come in useful sometimes. Played quite a few matches where villain was marked as a station so right from the off i adapted correct strategy and sure enough he called all his stack off. But other times the stats really didn't match up. I remember a few matches they had a guy marked as TP pre.....well either the guy got premo hands every hand or the stats are confusing cos this guy was so aggro! I think i'll stick to my own fact finding

imo no software is necessary when you play husngs
i recommend only sharkscope |

Agreed. The only real info i gained out of this i could have easily worked out for myself. I think for MTT's and cash games though this is a good little investment |

I love my hud! See my previous posts. 
Because it is a great note-taking tool and gets me thinking about the opponent's playing style. |
