Main Screen
- First line shows the Hole Rank or your poker hand.
- Hole rank shown when hole cards are entered. Smaller number is better. Please, note that the same hole card set can have different rank when you change number of players. This is important for understanding the strength of your hole cards. For example, "pair of sixes" is better than "ten and jack" in game of two players, but in game of nine players it is not. Knowing your pocket cards rank can help you to make better decisions in "pre-flop" bets.
- Best hand is shown when flop, turn or river is entered.
- Calculator shows number of hole cards in the hand at the end of the line.
- "[0]" means that none of your hole cards is present in the hand, maximum you can hope on in this situation is a draw.
- "[1]" means that only one card is in the hand, most regular situation.
- "[2]" in case of good hand like "full house" or "kare" means that you have very strong hand, so you can raise.
- Next line shows number of players used in the calculation. You can increase or decrease number of players by pressing "p+" or "p-" buttons.
- Next line shows Fold and Raise Levels used for preparing advice. This levels are calculated according to the playing strategy and number of players.
- Next line shows most important calculation result, WP (Winning Probability). It is shown in percents. Higher is the number better is your hand. Winning probability is summing pure win probability and the tie probability (shown in the braces).
