Mac Users: Check Out iHoldem Indicator

With many developers focusing on Windows-based software, Mac users are often left out in the cold.  And many times when poker software is made available to both Windows and Mac users, Mac users get an inferior product with less functionality.

Thankfully for Mac users, iHoldem Indicator bucks the trend and actually provides more for their Mac-based software compared to their Windows counterparts.  In fact, this Mac poker software combines the best features from Holdem Indicator and Tournament Indicator in one product.

If you are using a Mac and are looking for both an in-game poker odds calculator and a HUD, iHoldem Indicator should be right up your alley.  It's great for any poker player, especially those just learning the math behind the game.  The main statistics included are Win Odds, Pot Odds, Hand Odds, EV, Group, Outs, and Position.  The odds calculator will automatically update as you are playing or you can also use it offline.

The HUD included in the software is basic.  This means on the one hand, it is extremely easy to use and integrate into your game, but on the other hand, there won't be complex stats like positional stats included.  That being said, the software's HUD provides most poker players more than enough information about their opponents.

The HUD works by providing statistical-based information about your opponents based off your stored hand history files.  This is no different than most other HUDs on the market, including ones provided by Holdem Indicator and Tournament Indicator.  The key here is that it works off your data, which is why just about all major online poker networks permit the usage of the software.

Stats in iHoldem Indicator include VPIP, PFR, 3Bet/F, Steal/F, Aggression Factor, Cbet/F, WSD/W, and net chips won.  Additionally, the software assigns a profiling icon to each player to summarize their playing style without getting bogged down by statistics.

The software not only can help ring game players, but also is designed to help you with tournaments by including an MZone Monitor.  This feature can prove helpful to let you know what MZone you are currently in and you can also keep a helpful watch on your opponents.

While we won't dive into all of the great features of this software, one other tool included is a variety of stat graphs that help you visualize your play.  These graphs not only are helpful as is, but you can also customize them to your needs.

If this sounds great to you, why not give it a look for free with a seven-day free trial?  If you like what you see, it only costs $99.95 for a full lifetime license.  The software could prove to be a huge bargain when you take into account how many more pots and tournaments you can win.

Please note, if you play Omaha instead of Hold'em, you might want to check out iOmaha Indicator for the Mac instead.  This software has many of the great features just described about iHoldem Indicator, but is geared specifically toward Omaha players.
