Holdem Equity Calculator

When learning poker, knowing your chance to win against your opponents is an extremely important skill to develop. In fact, it’s impossible to have a skilled decision-making process without an understanding of equity. How do we learn about odds and equity? By practicing with an equity calculator.

Simply take Risk / (Risk + Reward) and the number you get is how much equity your hand needs to have in order to make calling profitable. In the event of getting 2:1 pot odds, you would take 1/(1+2) and see that you need at least 33% equity to continue. If your hand’s equity is higher than 33%, you would continue (either by calling or raising). Holdem Lab is an advanced poker equity calculator for Android. Equity calculator for ranges and hands (2 - 10 players) - Flop, turn, river structure analyzer show how good you hit the flop - Filtering ranges - Shows the best and worst cards you can hit on next street - Shows how often you hit a particular hand - Save and load ranges and analyzes.

A poker odds and equity calculator is a software program or app that instantly works out the chance of winning between different hands or ranges on any street.

Why Do I Need to Know Equities?

Nearly every poker decision revolves around the equity of hand ranges. In fact, if you don’t gain a relative understanding of how to calculate equities while you play, you will be at a severe disadvantage and often completely lost during a poker hand. For example, it’s virtually impossible to know whether any call should be made without understanding your odds.

What Are the Best Equity Calculators?

There’s no need to get fancy or pay any money when choosing an equity calculator. In fact, there are only two software programs that I recommend and both are free.

  • Pokerstove
    Pokerstove is the original equity and odds calculator. It has been around seemingly forever, although it has not been updated or changed since 2013. Even so, it is still the program that I use for nearly all of my equity calculations during my study. However, it’s fairly difficult to find. The website of the company that created it has been down since 2013, but luckily I still had a copy of my computer. I hope it works well for you! Here is the download link: PokerStove Download
  • Equilab
    Equilab is a nice alternative to Pokerstove. It has a few additional features for you advanced players out there. There is also an Omaha version available.

In the past months, we wrote twice about Short Deck Hold'em (where and how to play it and the Winning Poker Network adding 6+ tables). For several reasons, the game again began to gain popularity both offline and online. It is popular among poker fans for the high level of action and now it can be played not only in low and medium stakes (Winning Poker Network and iPoker) but also in high stakes in the PokerKing Asia application.

There are no developed strategies for 6+ Hold'em yet. All the information available on the internet is limited to a few tips on the game (which we already quoted). For those who want to develop their own strategy for 6+ Hold'em, today we will present a software created specifically for that — CombCalc6Plus; this piece of software calculates our chances against the opponents.

What is CombCalc6Plus?

CombCalc6Plus functionalities include:

  • Calculates the equity of a particular hand against a hand range of one or more opponents preflop or other streets;
  • Calculating the odds of the hand range of one or more opponents in the flop with the output matrix.
  • Creating your own hand range with any hand in percentage and save it as a separate file

The user can customize the software and the folder location. Detailed instructions on how to work with the program and create your own hand range can be found on the developer's website.

Its most important advantage is that you will be able to have a better understanding of the mathematics behind Short Deck Hold'em and its main differences with classical Hold'em, understanding the hand range of the opponents or yourself in different scenarios.

How much does CombCalc6Plus cost?
