Hi Alelkz16.
I think an HUD is very important if you play +NL50. In microstakes don´t need nothing but now, in NL100, i can´t do nothing without one. I use HoldemManager.
Posted by goliathfirst: do these cost money or is there a way to get them free?
As far as I know they cost money, you'll have to buy them online. Of course some sites provide it free to you only if you meet the requirements they ask you...
On topic, I think I don't need any of these soft as I'm 90% of the time a micro limit player...
Poker software is a must when you start playing some decent limits. When you go up in stakes more and more often you start to play the same people. The information that HUD stores about them is invaluable. You must be aware though that it is not easy to use this soft correctly.

I've used trial versions of both Holdem Manager and Poker tracker, but not much, it takes some study. Kind of a lot of study...
They're mostly useful if you're multitabling heavily. And mostly at higher stakes, as I read it. They're kinda useless for micros because of the wild play. (ie. DONK)

i belive they are very helpfull but only for those who know how to use them.. i mean if you are making marginal calls and you are not quite sure just how marginal, then they are very very helpfull and also if you play a lot and multi table then these sort of aids really can pick up your game.

I dont use any, because I play micro limits, but as soon as i win enough money to move up limits (NL20), i will obviously invest in a tracker before playing, its a huge help and imagining other players have informations on you, that you dont have on them just lets you guess of how important is a tracker a medium stakes
