I worked the way Griffinlord explained here. And read them over and over again. You will look at the theorie different and more close when you play longer and have gained more experience. a lot of things make more sense where before you would skip because to difficult or detailed.

The material in HoH is very complex, but explained in the best possible way. But there is no substitue for experience. No book can teach you that. But i must say that the books i've red in the beginning of my poker carreer have helped a lot here.

Nope. No software which tells you what you should do with your hand or calculates your Pot Odds is allowed.

@fletch_smf and deadmeat82
Well, to be honest I don't really need this software. I can calculate pot odds on my own. But what I find rather strange is that you can get it for free by registerening on full tilt and playing a few hundred hands (using the software!). They even have a refferal code for full tilt (check out http://holdemindicator.com/offer.php). And also the sites like this http://www.tilt.org/ exist, where someone advertises this software (also sharkscope and other similar websites) for the play on full tilt. There are videos of someone playing real money games using the software. Weird...

Hi, I posted this in general discussion but then I noticed this thread, im new to the forums...

Can anyone tell me if they have used playergps? seems like there are alot of pros endorsing it and I just want to see if anyone has any experience with the product and if it is approved by fulltilt? Will I be in trouble for using it?
