HAs anyone run across the excel add in simtools.xla? It is used by U of Chic. and NYU grad students to do modelling, etc. Anyway, they have a nice random number generator for random 'shuffles' of numbers. Using some VBA coding, it would be pretty easy to use this to create a monte carlo simulator for pretty much any simple poker situation.

Anyone used this, or tell me why I am an idiot for trying to do this? It depends on the VBA random number generator at heart, so that may be flawed.

Poker calculator will do both Monte Carlo and combinatoric sims.
