Probability Software

[Ballard]

Just interested in knowing if the people posting probabilities in here are using a specific software title. If you are, could you tell me what it is, and how you get it?

For hand match ups, try www.twodimes.net and use their web-based poker analyser (put a space between the cards you enter, eg Ah Ac and not AhAd).
Andrew Prock wrote a free analyser called Pokerstove which you can install on your pc. http://prock.freeshell.org/

As for all the combinatorics, I let the maths geeks here do it and just read the posts and build up a kind of memory bank of situations that have been discussed. Just wish I could remember them at the time they're needed...
However, figuring some out yourself is good for getting a feel for the numbers involved in certain situations.

Disclaimer: other people here know a lot more than me.

I use excel. In particular the combin and hypgeomdist functions.

But then I am an engineer by training and a math geek to boot.
