I am signing up for a site and have the choice between PA or a chipset asa gift.

Simple question: is PA any good or should I just take the chipset?

I am talking about the PRO edition.
I tried searching the forum but go so many unconnected that I gave up.

True.

But is PA worth the $130?

I don't which they are offering, but $130 is for the Pro version...the regular version is about 20 bucks.

They are offering the PRO version.

I downloaded the Demo but it is hard to tell if it is any good from the demo.

If you are looking for Poker simulation software, PAP2 is the best!

Get PA2 its the pro edition. Probably the best software out there. I came across it after I was already a pretty decent HU player...it did teach me a few things on where I wasnt putting in the extra bets. So it was worth it there for me.

Played w/ it today. Did a couple HU sessions w/ Vexbot...its the one that adapts to your play. Anyway started us both on 100bb buy ins. So far busted him 4 times. He got me down pretty low once...well down like 60bbs as he is a pretty good suck out.

Anyway solid software. Good/decent pots and w/ the advisor Im sure will point out a few things u suck at. Anyway thats my few cents.

How is it for ring play.
I generally play 6-max.

default 6 max tables are far too passive.
I have just started fiddling with the differnt players/controls to make them more agressive. So far have not been able to ramp it up enough but maybe I am missing something

If it's not against forum rules, could you post where you found the deal for the free software? /images/graemlins/smile.gif I just read some reviews on, and it seems like a decent investment to work on your game offline.
