Hello!

I was looking for and I am nowhere to be found where mentioned where to buy hands for Holdem Manager or another poker program, so I wrote here that this site xxxxx is very quality and affordable. I would ask you even have to know what the other side. Please if you delete this post, if not in the right place, but you can move in the right place.

Thanks!

Just a little spammer love at PokerStrategy. That site is such trash too. Way too expensive.

I think this is really my final comment on this statement:
xxxxx.

When I was using PT3 I was happy with it. I had my custom HUD similair to the one you linked to.
The thing is the software got incredibly slow after having more than about 50K hands in a database. Plus it does note have HH popup for the last payled hands with EV calculations.

These things are the reason why I think HEM is still superior to PT.

@BullDog: Can I link to the raw screenshots? I think you are being a little bit picky here unless you believe a custom PT3 hud is somehow an attempt to bash Elephant?

I apologize but I have trouble believing this since I've tested a million hand database on an older single core P4 laptop. As far as I know PT3 is superior in the massive and multiple database area. I even know one sicko who puts 1 million hands in his databases per day. :f_eek:

The thing on the right in this picture ?

@ tokyoaces

I will allow just the screenshots of the hud but not links to the actual site.

Kind Regards,

I have a core2 duo 2.2GHz with 4GB RAM. Back when I used to play SNGs I literally had to start a new database every other month. If I didn't it would slow down the whole computer to a point where I would keep timing out on the tables..
This is almost a year back though so I am sure they did a lot of work since then.
I've got around 250K hands in my HEM database and it runs smoothly so far.

And yes, that thing in the picture is what I meant. It's really invaluable when you're learning a new game and you're not quite sure about the equities yet. I pretty much check every other hand in it when I play Omaha..

Did you vacuum your database? That speeds it up a lot.

You just can't really compare things from a year ago. I remember the first time I tried HEM I thought, "Man this will never be better than PT2." Clearly that isn't true now. :)

You're probably right about that. That's why I said they probably did a lot of work since then.
I was doing the DB maintenance all the time but it did little to solve the problem.

Anyway, HEM is the winner for me ATM but I'm not saying I will never go back to PT if they come up with some new features or something.

Well I've used PT3 and then tried HEM 8 months ago and never looked back. HEM has really constant updates and the new version 1.10.2 has some interesting add-ons, such as holdem vision, table ninja (for those who play at stars) and leakbuster (tho this last one is part of HEM for some time now).
I prefer the HEM HUD customization system and stats.
And I found PT3 software to be slower.

But you should really try out and explore both before choosing.

Table Ninja is awesome! I am defo buying it when my trial expires. As long as in the 30 days I don't find any glitches or bugs :)

I've never seen a custom HUD for HEM ever. I just checked the latest version and it doesn't even allow customization ...

(... or we have an extremely different view of the concept of customization.)

What kind of customization are you looking for that HEM does not allow?
