Im fairly new to Holdem. Can someone explain what poker programs are?
Hi I've been playing on Pokerstars for about 6 months. I've had a little success, but not much. I see everyone talking about Holdem Programs. What exactly do they do? An explanation would be appreciated. I don't know if its something that tells you what to do while you play, or if its something else. Thanks.

What programs are u talking about ? There is Poker Tracker to track your stats, there is Poker Stove to calculate preflop and post flops odds, there is also some other programs too.

I guess im not entirely sure. What are some good programs that would help me learn the game better, and to learn pot odds etc. Thank you. Also where do you get these?

I've read a ton of books but none from 2+2. I just hear people talking about programs like Pokerpro or something. I don't even know what the heck it is.

If you've read pretty much any poker book there had to be some explaination of odds. I know it isn't a 2+2 book, but Matthew Hilger's book Internet Texas Hold'em with the guy on the cover on a beach with a laptop, that book has awesome pre-flop charts. It's a great way to discipline yourself, and Sklansky's theory of poker has some of the best stuff on playing hands in it, and it's written well. There's another book, and I don't know the author off hand, but its called Killer Online Poker. It doesn't have much actual pot odds or anything, but rather a good book on reading tables and betting accordingly.
