Help for Hold'em A new calculator issued by Delphin Trading Company is designed to help both poker novices and those experienced in the game. The calculator, which is the same size as a playing card, figures pre-flop odds of winning hands in Texas Hold'em.
One of the toughest tasks for players is figuring the value of a hand before they see the flop. Using this nice little gadget, a player enters in the cards dealt to him, chooses suited or unsuited, and enters the number of players in the hand. The calculator will then reveal the odds of winning the hand.
New players will be shocked at the surprisingly low odds good-looking hands carry. For instance, on the demo video, a player draws king-queen offsuit. Entering that data and including nine total players, the odds of winning are 16.9 percent.
So, the calculator helps newbies get the feel of the real value of a hand, before overbetting it. Experienced players can also fine-tune their instincts, checking their natural feel for a hand against scientific precision.
The Delphin Poker Calculator can be a useful tool to all who enjoy poker strategy.
