Features

Hand Rank

           Hand rank is a number, from 0 to 100, denoting the quality of a given Texas Hold’Em hand (100% being the best). Before the flop, Hold’Em hands are ranked according to statistical performance with the given number of opponents. After the flop, hands are ranked strictly by their strength in combination with the cards on the table.

Pot Odds

           Calculatem Pro takes Pot Odds into consideration. What this means is, if the advice would normally be to fold, but the amount of money you could win has a high enough ratio to make it worthwhile to call, it will tell you "Pot odds say call". Be sure and keep in mind your stack size if you get this advice in a tournament. Conversely, if you have good odds, but it costs too much to call and the payoff is not great, you may get a "Pot odds say fold."

The Deck, the Table, and Odds

          The deck shows you what cards are left in the deck. Colored dots appear on any cards that will improve your hand (without improving others). In manual mode, these cards may be clicked or dragged into the various card positions above.

          The table view is a small representation of the table, showing each player and their status. In manual mode, you can right click any player and change their status (to tell Calculatem Pro if and when they folded, for example). Also, in manual mode, you may Click "Layout" to change the layout of the table, and New Hand to clear all cards and advance the dealer button.

          Odds on the next card is a chart giving you your odds of hitting certain hands on the next card, as well as your odds of having the best hand on the next card. In addition, your best opponent's odds on the next card are shown. Odds on the River is a similar chart, but it shows odds on the hand if it were to play to the River.

Playing Style-Pre and Post Flop Advice

          Calculatem Pro™ will give different advice based on your preferred playing style. You can set it to give advice as a loose or aggressive player, or tell you of hands you may night like to play. To change the advice you receive from Calculatem Pro™ based on your personal playing style, choose this option on the dashboard. Set your preferences for play before and after the flop using the Tight, Average, and Loose options, with Loose being more aggressive and Tight being more cautious. You may also force Calculatem Pro™ to never advise you to play Texas Hold’Em hands in certain positions, unless they are in a certain top percentage.

Verdict

          Calculatem Pro is an improved version of Calculatem in which they added pot odds to the software. Texas Calculatem is the most recognizable brand on the market today for poker odds calculators making it the favored software for many players.

          As a stand alone poker odds calculator it does just as you would expect. It works seamlessly with the poker rooms. Graphically, it is very well presented, clear, and easy-to-use. Calculatem Pro is ideal for new players to the game as it offers advice that can prevent you from making any rash decisions. However, this advice is not aimed at more advanced players. Calculatem Pro offers good value to new players wanting to better learn the game either by cash purchase or free poker room offers. For advanced players, unless taking the free poker room offer, it holds little value.
