Why do people buy Calculatem? To waste cash and avoid learning? I really don't get it. I watched the java tutorial of the product; they would have to pay me to run it while I play.

Comments?

I downloaded a bunch of poker vids, and they all had a Calulatem tutorial attached to them. Why would I want to let a program determine how they play? Where's the fun in that?

I think that these things really appeal to the get rich quick players. Obviously players that are prepared to put in time and lear their craft will have better long term results.

When I first started playing online, I bought Texas Calculatum. I found it to be very valuable in learning pot odds. I only used it for about 6 months before I was able to determine the odds on my own. For a beginner, I think it is a very vaulable tool.

Yah, this seems like a getting started type tool. A user at another forum who I know has been playing for a while mentioned just buying it. I thought that was quite strange.

Don't buy this, strengthen your brain instead, also this doesn't work at live tables. Razz
