Holdem Manager is very good but you can make all the same statistics using your brain and this will help you to increase your poker level.... Try to make this...

Holdem Manager is the s**t! I used their sign up code with Titan Poker, played on TP and got enough points to get a free copy of Holdem Manager. I always thought my poker was good .....but then I used Holdem Manager. My ROI has increased drastically and my game has become a lot better. Highly recommend investing in it. HEM tells you your own stats as well, where you can improve on your game, your opponents VP$IP, AF, CB etc etc. So next time the guy raises from UTG with a VP of 12% and PFR of 2% you know for a fact he has AA or KK especially when you got over 1200 hands on him. HEM... dont actually know how i use to play poker without it...

I got it and it is good but you have to know what to do with it. I have just got it from a bit torrent site and it work ok and has no bad things in it. you could also try poker tracker or poker office as they do the same thing.
You don't need to make an illegal download if you want to try it. You have a period trial to try it. Personally, I tried and what I didn't like me was the multitable support. Very poor. And difficult to configure the seat where you are playing. Never worked for me.

The software is actually pretty good. All the top players use HEM or Poker Tracker.
I tried both both trials, and it´s really a case of personal preference. I liked the look and feel of HEM better.
Just go to their site, they have some offers where you can "earn" it.
As to setting it up, not that easy. Lokking for more info as well before I try and get it. There is some stuff on their site, and some forums, but I have´nt found what I want yet. Some good advice would be handy!
@SimpLe-SI Any tips on how to set up? Which stats, or where to find some good tutorials? Thanks!

Holdem Manager is really good, although sometimes I think "how the hell did I play without it" as I'm used to it now, my biggest cash was last night for 200$ getting first place in a 1$ tourney, that without using HEM. @IslandJack: You can find explanation to what every abreviation means and how to configure the HUD right from the soft. It has a tutorial section in the program that is very explicit and helpful, with videos and stuff.

Well...you could ask the other players at the table to keep a piece of paper in front of them and take a note of every hand they've played (raise, fold, call %) and also how many hands they limped and how many they raise preflop..and when the action gets to you, u just take a look at those sheets and decide what to do next....but I have a feeling most people won't agree to that so no deal

Thanks tomboogy! I didn´t have too much time to try it out when I got the trial about 6 months back. I guess they´ve upgraded their tutorial section as well in the meantime.
From reading the comments, yours as well, I guess I need to have another go at it. I´m using a laptop now, so I guess I can download the trial again and give it another go. Properly this time.

PokerTracker and PokerEdge...but there are a few other programs that can help..they are from other sites so I will not name them here (had that problem before), but if you look a little you'll find the one that suits you best. I've seen PokerEdge has a lot of nice features, but I'm stickiing with HEM.

Hi,
Anyone know if maybe I can join a site through Bankrollmob and get HEM for free or after playing and earning so many points. Any feedback would be appreciated, thanks.
