Sorry, I somehow missed this.

1) Leak Buster is built around a peak winrate theory and total loss for common post flop leaks. So one of the parts of leak buster that seems to get the most attention is stat analysis. For this we took hundred million+ hands from top players across different sites and created a formula looking for the peak median winrate for stat categories and generated an algorithm to score that based on how far players were away from that mean and how the average winrate fell or increased as players moved away from that mean.

The second part is looking at common mistakes players make (at all levels), post flop, and analyze how much their losses are versus the normal loss or win rates. Leak Buster achieves this through running many combinations of filters, and then comparing those results versus top players.

After it gets all of this data, it will hierarchically rank those leaks based on winrate impact. Players, even top pros are pretty surprised by the amount of info it brings up that makes sense based on what they know about their own games. It's a huge time saver when it comes to analyzung your own database, and I don't care how good of a player you are at any level, you're going to learn something about your game with it. We've sold tens of thousands and never had anyone say this wasn't the case. It's a fun product to play around with and make you more thoughtful about your game.

2) It's purely exploitative. There's GTO add-ons you can do, but leak buster itself is purely based on learning about your own games based on the historical success of top players, and how to apply that info in an exploitative fashion to your opponents. It's the primary way most players are going to be making money in this game, because pretty much every players has an exploitable part of their game. GTO solvers are fun tools to learn and think more deeply about your game, but most players need to really understand exploitative play better, since a lot of GTO solutions are very difficult to apply in game.

3) I've never been asked that question before. There's a ton of good poker books out there now a days though. To be completely honest, for myself I haven't read many poker books in a while. I've been playing for 13 years though, and have played against all the top players and won a ton of money playing poker though. I can try and get you some recommendations. I run a pretty large study group on another site with players who use leak buster and work on their poker games and I can ask them what they'd recommend and get back to you.


And honestly, I use leak buster on my own game and have for several years now. I think it's the best tune up a thoughtful poker player can provide for themselves. It keeps my game in check. I don't play near the stakes and limits I used to, but I still play a good amount of tough mid stakes games.

Current recent post black friday results:


I think to crush at this game you have to stay on top of how to adjust and what is out of whack in your game, because even the subtle things add up and make a difference long term. I'm sure it's partly the perfectionist in me, but that's the fun part about poker imho.

Any ways, I hope that helped, but if you have more questions, feel free. I'm always available to speak about poker (not just leak buster lol).

I'm sold! I bought it
Great, lemme know what you find out from them.

This is what I have so far:

Harrington on Holdem Cash Games
Polished Poker (it's one of our free ebooks, but this was mentioned several times)
Phil Gordon's little green book
Mathematics of Poker

Hi

Any update on leakbuster for DriveHUD?

It's still in progress. When I have a more form ETA I will post more info. Thanks for your interest.

Hi there, will the new version of LB come for plo too?

And old users will need to pay for it?

Hi,
Looking at the Leakbuster HUD in HM2 and I'm slightly confused with the colour coding.
For example Flop CBet looks like this :
>49 Yellow/49-57 Orange/57-75White/75-81Red/More than 81Green.

So if a player Cbets less than 49 he is tight!

However, here's Flop Fold to CB stats:
>34 Yellow/34-40 Orange/40-53White/53-65Red/More than 65Green.

So if a player Folds to CB less than 34 he is tight? Should the colours not be fliped, So a Green is tagged for less than 34 to Fold to CB or am I missing something?

Maybe it's already too late for you... and maybe main is not exctly the same thing, but I've had a probably similar problem today and finally I've discovered that all the data in the popup called "LeakBuster_Ranges" appear as N/A when the selected Report is "Leak Buster - Position". If I select any other Report the data appears right. I do not know if it's due to a bug. But the popup works correctly when the report is another one.

NL will be coming out first, PLO second. We've had zero additional fees for updates since LB first launched. LB 2 will be a new interface and new functions / features. Existing users will get a huge discount. Users who purchase closer to launch will get a massive discount to update. We will lay everything out as we get closer to launch, but we will make it as fair as possible.

No, it's not player type based but exploitable based or attention based. Red and green are the most exploitable colors, followed by yellow, orange, white/blue.

I'm not 100% sure you guys are talking about the same thing, but the reporting in HM2, if there's something going on you'll need to contact HM2. LB doesn't control or interact with their reports or pop-ups. There could be a file missing, hard to say, but if you're having an issue with data reporting in HM2, please let them know.

Yes that makes sense now thank you.
Is there anywhere to find what numbers I need to add in for other stats for each colour.
For example how do I colour code River Cbet? Fold to Check-raise? for 9max etc.

I have purchased it and went through the video but still no place to find good numbers for other stats

For any of the stat ranges leak buster covers, you can mouse over their data points in the horizontal graph line and then sort them out based on ranges that are before ideal, beginning of ideal, middle, end and after. We don't set HUD's color ranges for every stat, that's no the main purpose of leak buster, but you can use it to create a color range for any stat is covers.

Hi there,

I just bought LB PLO. It has some value but I feel disappointed in some way because I have found several bugs and weakness on the software, I am even doubting about the reliability of the data because of them, here I go:

1) I am using the hm2 version and the window size is a problem, I can't fully see the bottom of the Leak Buster window no matter what, I can't see the full name of the filters in step 7 neither.

2) On Step 6, If I want to see $ in place of bb/100, I have to constantly go to step 1 to open and save the already show $ option selected every time I change a filter.

3) I can't see any chart, when I try to open the preflop hand chart, I get a Leak Buster window in blank.

4) Most of the filters +/- vs Avg Results are wrong. Here is a proof:



As Tom pointed out, this should be a loser filter because we don't have iniciative and have a range disadvantage, we are calling to loss less than -350bb/100 basically (if we did open pot size preflop)

I am losing -50bb/100 (recovering a decent amount of the open raise money) and it yet tells me that I am -266bb/100 from the average results.

So the average player is winning 213,91bb/100 when calling a 3bet? That is obviously wrong. Even taking only winner players, and worse if taking all players.


Gateful in advanced for your attention

This is a limitation of HM2, if you increase your resolution or reduce your DPI (windows font size scaling), you should be fine.

This is something we'll have to look at. Maybe it's not saving locally.

It's some issue w/ your default browser. I'll have to ask developers about this. In the meantime the pre-flop chart can be sent to you. It's a good chart that's worth studying up on.
I'm having the developers take a look at this. Nothing has changed in LB PLO, so not sure why those numbers would be off, but you're correct. Average loss should be somewhere around -30~bbs I believe. I will have someone check it out. Thank you.

I'm interested in purchasing LB. I have few questions:
1. If I buy current version now will I have some discount or free update to the newest leakbuster that is being developed now?
2. If I buy normal version is it possible to upgrade to pro version?
3. Is this software up to date because I think some years has passed after version 4.0 release, also the videos I found on yt seems old, not sure if they're up to date to today's games (i'm playing nl25 on stars).

1) Yes, we will be doing progressive discount based on when you purchase to new update.
2) Yes, you can upgrade for the price difference.
3) Yes. All content applies to today's game. Some videos have been removed and others added over time. But everything is applicable to today's game.

I recently grabbed a trial copy of LB and have run into some issues. I have created threads on PokerZion but no one has replied yet. Is that forum still being monitored? If not, I can ask the questions here.

http://pokerzion.com/Poker_Forum/for...32-Leak-Buster

Overall, I like the app a lot. Some of the filtering seems to be off though.

Yes, it is but apparently that message was missed. Sorry.

We'll have to check this. It's entirely possible a PT4 update changed something about how it's handling the filtering. It's the first we've heard of that, and there hasn't been any bugs in it previously, so that's my best assumption. I will let the development team know though so they can look at it monday. ty.

I find that LB help me alot in analyzing my games. been using it for a long time now and i can say it really helped me.

I kinda made a mistake and lost the serial key, luckily this is after i transferred it to my new unit so.. I'm ok for now. Is there a way for me to get it back?

Cool, glad it's helping. It's pretty amazing what it will find actually, and still use it on my own game as a tune up even though I've played for over 12 years.

As far as your license, you can use the below page to have your license sent to you. Just enter your email address:

I was a bit worried about that. all is good now.

Thank you!

Ok, cool. Glad all is resolved. Keep us updated on your progress. We need to open up a thread for that again where we kept logs and blogs on people's progress and improvements while using leak buster.

Thanks , Ill check around and look for that thread. btw, when will LB be available for DriveHUD. not really in a hurry just want to have a time when to expect having it on my DH.
