I was playing around with those massive looking reports that Poker-Spy outputs for you. I have about 2500 hands in the history, virtually all of them on tournament play at Party Poker and Paradise Poker. There is a hand analysis feature where you can look at each and every hand you played, and it it groups them together to show you if you are playing them right, wrong or not at all. I clicked on the amounts tab and it reorganized the hands by money (chips) earned rather than hand rank. There were some surprises.


The most profitable hand for me is ATos with a hand rank of 44 in the group 6 Sklansky chart. Wow. A distant second was AA rank 1, group 1. KQs with a rank of 9 in group 2, is just a sliver behind AA! Here is another shocker - 88 is my 4th best earner! Hand rank is 19 in group 4. Rounding out my top 5 is everybody's most dreaded JJ. I must be doing something right with that hand. With this kind of information, you can see how poker-spy would help those willing to be analytical with their game. What I have mentioned here is just the tip of the iceberg in regards to the reports available.

Poker software review quotes:

Online poker hasn't really been around for too long, maybe a decade or so, but as soon as it was, clever programmers were thinking about designing online poker software tools that could not only produce a winning edge for a player, but stretch the meaning of fair play.

Well the best poker software tools have survived an era of audacious claims made by many fly-by-nighters. Poker software like Poker Tracker, Holdem Manager and Tournament Indicator have achieved real staying and power market share largely due to following the rules set out by online poker rooms such as Full Tilt Poker and Poker Stars, yet they have displayed evidence of creating clear advantages for those who use the tracking software.
