For your pocket cards, Poker Indicator provides EV and Group no, which fully describe your pre-flop hand strength. By only playing hands that have profitable EV, you will certainly improve your Texas Hold'em game.

After Flop, Turn and River, it shows you the poker odds of win and tie. These poker odds are based on your pocket cards, known community cards and the number of players left in that hand. It uses a sophisticated mathematical algorithm to get a correct and accurate result. This algorithm is much more accurate than using OUTs.

Pot odds is simply a ratio of the amount of money in the pot compared with how much money it takes to call. The higher the ratio, the better your pot odds are. If there are $12 in the pot and it costs $4 to call then you are getting 3:1 odds ( winnings : "cost to stay in"). This can be translated to a percentage, representing the size of your contribution in the new pot. It will be 25% in the above example.

Gms: Number of games tracked for that player. By this you know how representative the stats are.

Balance: The dollar amount that this player is up or down for all hands tracked for the current session. It is very interesting to observe how different playing styles (see Flop%, Shdn% etc) correlate with winning or losing patterns. Also, the balance may represent additional useful information regarding the player current mindset (who is more likely to "play it safe", who is getting desperate, who is about to "go on tilt" etc). Due to technical difficulty, the balance value is not accurate for PokerRoom(and skins) and Paradise.

Flop%: The percentage of games where this player saw the flop so far (over the entire number of games played). This is the primary indication of where this player falls in the tight/loose scale. Extremely useful when going up against someone at showdown.

Shdn%: The percentage of games where this player stayed in all the way to showdown (over the entire number of games played). Another extremely useful piece of information, especially when combined with the Flop%. A small difference in the two, for example 70% flop-58% showdown, indicates that this player is prone to calling a lot and chasing long-shot possibilities (AKA "fish detection").

ShdnWon%: The percentage of showdowns that this player actually won. High percentages show that the player know which hands are worthy of a showdown and has a good feeling of weather his opponents are bluffing or not (and vice versa).

Play money and real money data are tracked separately . Balance data is collected only for the current session. Flop%, Shdn% and ShdnWon% are collected historically.

Opponents Stats will be collected even you're sitting out. These data is kept locally on your computer and will be loaded automatically next time when you're sitting with the same player.

It's another way to describe your hole cards strength. In the book of Hold'em Poker for Advanced Player by David Sklansky, he divides the starting hands into 9 groups. Group 1 is the strongest, group 9 is the weakest. By only playing poker hands that have profitable EV, you will certainly improve your Texas Hold'em game. Please remember however, that this is a compilation of EV for the average player, so they are just representative of long term statistics and not Texas Hold'em fact. You will still need to play your poker hands accordingly, which means you need to observe your opponents, play as the flop sees fit.

EV is the Expected Value for your hole cards. Expected value is the average amount of big bets this hand will make or lose. So for example, AA from the small blind in a 3/6 game will make on average 2.71 times the big blind, or $16.20 per hand (2.71 * $6). 22 from the button (D or Dealer position) however, will make -0.12 EV, or -$0.72 in a 3/6 game (6 * -0.12). These data were graciously taken from Poker Room's EV Page. Thus, these stats are compiled from live table data instead of simulations.

EV is not only based on your pocket cards, but also dealer button's positon, your seat position, and the number of players in that hand. So it is possible that you will see different EV values with the same pocket cards.

They are the chances of hitting a particular hand for you and your opponents at showdown. For example, if it shows 20% of flush for you and 30% for your opponents, it means finally you have 20% possibilites to get a flush, while among your opponents they altogether have 30% to get a flush.

1) Trust odds that Poker Indicator provides you, don't play by the luck of the draw.
2) Keep an eye on your opponents. Sometimes you might have to fold even it shows you good odds.
For example, if you have 60% winning odds, then you still have about 40% possibility to lose. In this case, if you can find that your opponents might have better hand by seeing how they behaved, you should fold your hand.
