definetly hem manager or pokertracker! try it out and then deceide, i know pt has a 60 day free trial – test it.  i think a HUD is essential if you multitable and have not the brain of a supergenius 😉

Badabing – what stats do you use on the HUD? is there a certain forumuila where these stats will put people into certain types eg tight/maniac/donk etc…. and is it just trial and error to get used to what they mean?

 

Got HM but nevr got round to setting up the HUD or using it to review my game as it all goes a bit over my head!!!

I do not like too much information on my hud, but just enough not to be overwhelming. You can always expand the hud on specific players to receive all information. What I use is:  Player name, No. of hands,VPIP, PFR, AgF, CBet Flop, Fold % to bet/raised after flop, 3Bet total and Steal Success

name, nr of hands, vpip, pfr this is essential with those stats you can also after only 20-30 hands categorize a player somehow

additional i have 3b, 3b fold, flop bet, flop fold 

for mtts this seems enough, when i was playing cashgame i used to have more stats in the hud

NO. of hands VPIP, PFR and AgF are essential in my opinion, from there it depends on what type of player your targeting. RFB's video is a great start, I forgot about it. Also a really good book is “Harrignton on Online Cash Games.” It deals with cash games only but goes into detail about HuD and provides many scenarios with actual stats about opponents.

got my self holdem manager . and after watching ronfezbuddys video on hub usage. it got me off to a great start. good video . i think the hub is good with all the stats and stuff. especially if ur multi tabling but what i find most interesting is . analyzing my own data tournaments which iv had good results and bad results in and see where my are leaks which i haven”t  done very much of .thanks for your comments guys
