F.A.Q.
What does the Poker Helper do?
This is a powerful highly accurate simulation utility for Windows
machines which generates statistics, win percentages, hand
probabilities and useful tactical information for the game of
Texas Hold'Em Poker and Omaha Hold'em poker. It was designed for
use with online Poker sites, providing highly accurate statistics
for beginners and dedicated players alike.
The Poker helper can calculate player statistics based on a variable
number of opponents, and at differing game stages. It also contains
advanced algorithms to simulate in great detail the behaviour
of human players, either in an online poker site or a live Texas Hold'Em
game. It can be used for limit or no-limit poker statistics. Unlike most
other Poker Calculators, it uses a fully customisable model of opponent
behaviour when evaluating the strength of your cards.
Where can I learn more about Texas Hold'Em Poker?
To learn all about the game of Texas Hold'em Poker, please check out
this article on Wikipedia.
What are the minimum system requirements?
You just need a few Mb of RAM and a Windows operating system. The
faster the CPU you have the better the code will run. The code takes
a few moments to initialise as it precalculates some data. This will
run quicker on faster machines. Everything else in the program auomatically
adapts to the speed of your computer. If your machine is slow then
the software compensates for this and adaptively alters the complexity
of the simulations
Do you have any screen shots of the Poker Helper?
Here's a small picture of the Poker Helper in use. The program uses
two windows; one for selecting the cards and a second for displaying
the statistics and all the main control buttons. This screenshot is
from the new v3.0 of Col's Poker Helper.

Does this software come with any warranty?
No - it's just a free bit of code that I'm distributing to anyone who
is interested! If you want to support this project then please offer
a donation. My code has been tested on Windows 2000/XP/NT
without any problems so you should be absolutely fine and I don't
expect any possible conflicts - it doesn't alter any of your system
settings, your registry or core windows folders. I don't accept any
responsibility whatsoever for the accuracy of the predictions. If you
lose your life's savings then it's not my fault! But if you earn a lot
of money and want to donate some, please remember me (see below)!
How does the code work?
It runs Monte-Carlo simulations for randomly selected cards in each
game. The details are slightly more complicated, especially using an
opponent modelling algorithm, which improves the accuracy of the statistics
by generating accurate models of opponent behaviour based on two
parameters of aggression and bluffing frequency.
What does it cost?
It's free to download from this page. The .zip
file is just under 60k in total and consists of one single executable
file, pokerapp.exe. If you want to make a donation, then please do so
through PayPal. Share some of the mountains of cash you've earned
online thanks to my code! Holdem Poker can be a very lucrative hobby.
Is the source code available?
I'm afraid that the source code for the Poker Helper is now
closed.
Can I help in updating the Poker Helper?
Sure, if you particularly want to! I'm not working on it as much as I
would like to, though I have some exciting ideas for future
developments. If you want to continue the project then feel free to
send me an email. I don't mind what you do with the code so long as
I'm fully credited in any public versions that you release. As I said
above, if you start earning money from my code then we'll need to
talk!
