Hand Evaluator - Potential
 

I am evaluating the Poker Academy Pro demo.
The hand evaluator shows Hand, Strength, Potential and Pot Odds. For Potential it shows something like "+16.7%, -8.8%". Are these the best and worst case implied odds?
How do you calculate these figures?

From the help files which you obviously chose not to look at:

Potential - The final piece of information presented to describe your hand is the estimated positive and negative potential of your hand. Your hand's positive potential is the percentage of situations where you have a hand that is currently behind but that ends up ahead on the next stage. Your hand's negative potential is the percentage of situations where your hand is currently ahead but will end up behind on the next stage.

Thanks, I missed that bit in the help file but see it now. It's a very well thought out program. Can the hand evaluator be used for live online games?

You can enter information into the Hand Evaluator at any time, so you "could" manually use it while playing online.
