<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;">How to cheat online poker?   This is not the blog for cheaters after all playing online poker is my passion and even if I did know how to cheat I wouldn&#8217;t and I certainly wouldn&#8217;t blog about it.   The title is “Online Poker is easy with Poker Edge” How can Poker Edge make this easy?  One word – information!</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Think about this a moment what if I knew how you played over the last 1000 hands? How many times you raised under the gun, how many hands you played as opposed to how many hands you where dealt? Do you think I would have a advantage over you? I would own you. The only way to win at poker is to make the right decisions based on the information you have.</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;">The problem is right now you don&#8217;t have access to much information in online poker because unlike in-person tournaments there are no tells for you to see online.   Thats why I use PokerEdge, with PokerEdge I get information on how YOU play, yes I said YOU. PokerEdge tracks the play of over1million online players and growing, as a subscriber of PokerEdge I know the instant I sit at a table the strength of the players at the tablewhether they are sharks, fish, bombs, maniacs, calling stations, ect. I can then employ a specific strategy to each person at the table. This translates to BIG MONEY! You avoid getting into contested pots with a shark unless you got the nuts, and you just completely dominate the fish at the table.</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;">This is not how to cheat online poker, its just using the information you have to your benefit.  Now of course some people would say that this is cheating when in fact it is not, for example if you go to the race track and buy a racing green are you cheating?? No, you simply wanted to make a more informed decision when you made your race wager. WARNING while poker edge works beautifully on PokerStars, PokerStars considers the use of poker edge cheating.   I advocate using every legal advantage you have available, hell, By reading this blog you have a advantage over every other poker player you come across (except me! LOL).</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Poker Edge is a software program which is designed to give you the edge over your opponents by learning their playing styles, strengths and weaknesses. So how does it work and is it any good?<br />
<span id="more-2614"></span></p>
<p>Unlike other poker training products, Poker Edge has a large database which is connected to over one million players and records their game data, including their percentage of wins and losses and which online poker room they are using. What this means is that Poker Edge provides its users with the ability to discover which sites and tables contain weak players, meaning that you can exploit weak tables to maximize your wins.</p>
<p>In fact, anyone who registers at one of the poker sites that is supported by Poker Edge and plays even just one game, will have data recorded about them that can be accessed by Poker Edge users. By anonymously being able to track information about an individual&#8217;s playing style, and the actions they are likely to take, its far easier to ascertain the hand that they have and make your own playing decisions based upon the gathered facts. Poker Edge provides all this information overlaid onto your playing screen &#8211; meaning that you don&#8217;t have to keep flicking between screens to analyze your opponents.</p>
<p>In addition, you can also use Poker Edge to track your own game and make improvements to increase your winnings. By providing this combination of opponent&#8217;s information and self development, Poker Edge is an extremely useful tool for anyone wishing to improve their game.</p>

<p>Knowing your opponents playing styles before you even playing with them will give you a distinct advantage over most other players. Knowing how your competition plays their hands is key in consistent winning. Poker Edge will keep you constantly updated on all this valuable information.</p>
<p><span id="more-301"></span></p>
<p>Here are just a few of the advantages of knowing what kind of player you are up against:</p>
<p>- Play a lot of hands against players that will call anything to see a flop, and fewer hands with the opponents that tend to play tight.</p>
<p>-	Bluff the aggressive players and play aggressively towards the tight players</p>
<p>-	Implement Bluff against the aggressive players</p>
<p>-	Play more hands with people that play poorly after the flop</p>
<p>-	Sit to the right of tight players and to the left of aggressive opponents</p>
<p>Poker Edge also has a great feature that will sniff out the fishy tables or tables full of weak players. If the reason you are playing is to make money then the AUTO TABLE LOOKUP will be your best friend. Auto Table Lookup allows you to see how many fish and shark there are at each table. Poker Edge uses a simple red and green color code scheme that will allow you to locate the most profitable tables before you even sit down. Now you will be able to be the shark every time!</p>
<p>Here are a couple of examples on how Poker Edge can be useful</p>
<p>Lets say you just flopped the top two pairs so you place a bet. All of your completion folds out but one, he calls you. The turn card comes out to make 3 hearts making a possible flush for your opponent. You bet your two high pairs and your opponent raises you. You look up the player on your Poker Edge stats and see he only raises 7% of the time on the turn and he wins 100% of showdowns. You then easily fold your hand knowing he hit the flush.</p>
<p>You hit top pair with top kicker, and there are a few players. You bet the flop and get all but one player to fold. The turn card come out which doesn&#8217;t help, but your opponent raises you. You pull up his Poker Edge stats and see that he raises 35% of the time and only folds 8% telling you that this opponent likes to bluff or chance straight/flush draws. You call his raise and check on the river, he also checks and reveals he was chasing a busted straight draw. You walk away with the pot</p>
<p>These are just two of the countless situations you will be able to you Poker Edge in. If used correctly this really will pay for itself after just one session!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div id="body">
<p>This article is for intermediate or advanced online poker players who desire to move to the next level by building up their confidence.</p>
<p>Have you sometimes felt like after joining an online poker table, the other players seemed to know if you had a strong hand or not? If you started betting with a monster hand, everyone else would fold. Or if you had a medium strength hand, your opponent would bet heavily, forcing you to fold.</p>
<p><span id="more-304"></span></p>
<p>Do not despair, this is a very common feeling. And the most common reason is that you are not using the tools that your opponents are using against you, putting you at a disadvantage. There are all sorts of online poker aids and it is far from obvious to know which ones are really useful and powerful.</p>
<p>The most potent poker tool if you play on the Web is the head up display, a.k.a. HUD. These incredibly sharp programs create a transparent overlay over the poker table that shows your opponents&#8217; playing style and tendencies. There are two kinds of HUDs, the ones relying on a local database and the ones based on a large remote hand histories database.</p>
<p>Local HUDs are extensions or parts of programs such as Hold&#8217;em Manager or PokerOffice. These software collect all the hands that you have played online and reorganize the data in order to extract the characteristics of all players that you faced in the past. Looseness/tightness and passiveness/aggression are measured and displayed over each player. So that you know instantly what type of player you are facing.</p>
<p>Most people already know and use such products. The first secret is that if you want to gain an additional advantage, you can buy data mined hand histories. By doing so, you can add information about players that you never faced before. So the next time that you sit next to GoldenDonk33 for instance, you may immediately know that he is a dangerous shark.</p>
<p>Alternatively if you had not had such information, it may have cost you a few stacks before you have played enough hands for your local database to get updated and to show this player&#8217;s tendencies. Note that there are vendors that sell hand histories from poker rooms such as pokerstars or full tilt poker, which frown upon such practice. But there is nothing they can do as it is illegal for them to scan your private computer information in order to detect such purchase.</p>
<p>This first secret is thus a method for enhancing your local poker tracker database by purchasing hand histories, if you already use such software or if you decide to start using them. In the same range of poker tools, and this is the second secret, there is a product that is a remote poker tracker. This product brings the entire concept to a new level.</p>
<p>This program is called poker-edge. What poker-edge does is collect millions of hands over the Internet by using an army of enslaved computers whose only task is to connect to one among one hundred different online poker rooms and to record hand histories. The end result of poker-edge massive data mining activity is that this helps generate a very information-rich HUD for you. But you do not need to maintain a local poker tracker software or to buy hand histories. All such background work is done automatically for you. The final result is the same except that poker-edge players&#8217; stats are massive.</p>
<p>It is a matter of choice if you decide to have an enhanced local poker database or if you prefer to have an automated remote HUD. But if you fail to use at least one of the two secrets for building confidence at online poker, then you are nearly certain to wonder at times how come it seems that your opponents know the strength of your hands. But you don&#8217;t.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The game of online poker is undoubtedly getting tougher and tougher. While new players continue to be introduced to the myriad of poker sites that seem to launch every week in hopes of carving out a niche, there are fewer now, compared to the amount of established and experienced players waiting to take their share of newcomers&#8217; money.</p>
<p><span id="more-229"></span></p>
<p>Part of the reason is because the huge amounts of new players that came online over the last 2 or 3 years is waning although still significant as a growth industry. Another reason though is that many of those players have found it rather difficult to win consistently online, and just stop playing or play with insignificant bankrolls on a leisurely basis.</p>
<p>Understanding how tough this game can be is one of the reasons why designers and owners of software like Poker Tracker are pursuing new versions and updated products, because they understand that the rounders online are always looking for that extra edge over their opponents.</p>
<p>Poker Tracker can be thought of as the software for in depth after play analysis and on the fly help and statistics that may very well lead you to making more and more correct decisions at the table. Some players (especially new ones) will think it&#8217;s some sort of magic formula for winning instantly. It is certainly not that, but it will, however, present you with information on your own play and your opponents play to enable you to make the best decision in hand to hand combat situations.</p>
<p>Poker Tracker addresses two main components for study of your game which are self analysis and opponent analysis. You will need to delve into both aspects at some point, although for new players getting to know your own strengths and weaknesses may be a priority.</p>
<p>Not only does Poker Tracker help you with both of these vital areas of your game, but it has grown so much in popularity that other software designers have built <a href="http://www.pokercalculatorreport.com">poker calculators and software programs</a> as add-ons to poker tracker to further enhance its effectiveness. Some of the more popular add-ons are Idleminer and Spade Eye which to a large degree automate the collections of data from your opponents, even with you not playing at the table. (This is known in the online poker industry as data-mining). Data-mining can get you into trouble with your poker client so be careful as to what you actually choose to use.</p>
<p>Poker Tracker does collect tournament information, but really this software is meant for cash and ring game players, as data collected for extended periods of time can be relied upon as an actual trend or style. If you are in doubt about Poker Tracker take it from the thousands of rounder pros who run this software as much as you and I might turn on our computer.</p>
<p>As for the learning curve with Poker Tracker, it is daunting, but that also goes along with how much of a business-like attitude you are bringing to your game.</p>
