I'm mostly playing MTTs and MTSNG on pokerstars but also on 888, Winamax, Party, GG.
I need a software that has enabled hotkeys and that can manage all those sites, I have a 3 monitor setup, so software has to support multiple monitors.
I was using 888caption, stars caption, party caption and table tamer in the past, but I would like to use only 1 program for all and ideally it should also allow for advanced table management and it should be very fast with their updates.

The options I'm seeing are:

1. Table ninja 2 (can't really find any threads about this software on 2+2, which I find strange, but I already have HM3, I also downloaded 30day free trial version, but I have problems getting it to work, currently waiting to hear back from support)

2. Juroin - It looks it can do everything that I want, but I can't understand how it's free? In my experience everything comes with a price tag....

3. StackAndTile - by the looks of it, hotkey functionality isn't the best

4. Intuitive tables - don't know anything about them


If you have experience with any of above mentioned programs, or maybe with others that I didn't mention, please let me know.

Basically since the demise of TT, no singular software in your list (including the caption programs) can do everything. Each software has it's strengths and weaknesses so I will try to do my best laying these out. Other table managers can weigh in too to help users get the best software to fit their needs.

1) TN2
- Strengths: A strong option for Stars/888 although not sure how well it works these days.
- Weaknesses: Not supported on any other sites and might not be updating as quickly as you like.

2) Jurojin
- Strengths: Supported on all major sites, good customer service and updates and solid overlays.
- Weaknesses: Still somewhat in beta/free with certain kinks to work out. Missing certain features that very serious grinders may really want such as auto-table focusing, auto-closing sng/mtt, table filters etc.

3) Stack & Tile
- Strengths: A very long-standing solid option with every aspect of grinding though out. Very stable and quick updates when sites change things. A really impressive custom site wizard to help add support for non-major sites.
- Weaknesses: Perhaps not adding too many new features these days but the current ones are steadily maintained and there's a lot of them.

4) IntuitiveTables (note: I am biased since I built the software)
- Strengths: Easiest to set up and get playing right away. Works on all major sites + now emulators like PokerBros/PPPoker. Discord support is fast and responsive/quick updates. Loads of features on the table managing side such as table filters, auto-focusing, auto-closing, tons of hotkeys etc etc.
- Weaknesses: Some setup may be required to get everything to work properly for each site. Also I am a poker player transitioned into software developer so features like action history/chips ->bb etc are a bit out of reach for now. I am working on expanding the team to help cover some of these gaps though.

In my (biased) opinion - the best option for you would be a combination of Stars/888/PartyCaption programs + IntuitiveTables. This was the setup I used when I played full time cash games for many years (15+ tables across multiple monitors) and couldn't imagine playing without those softwares. Let me know if you have any questions and I'd be happy to help further.

Thx for detailed answer

1) TN2 - due to insufficient support for multiple clients + inability to deal with different felt colors on PS I deleted this option from the list

2) Downloaded it today, for now it looks good and it's free (for now), but I have to test it for couple of days to see if I like it

3) Stack & Tile - I downloaded it but didn't find it user friendly, maybe it's just me, but I also don't like to stack tables, I want all of them in the grid so I can observe them

4) I'm also considering your suggestion caption+Intuitive tables - but I want to ask something, what do intuitive tables have that caption doesn't and vice versa, so how do they compliment each other. I used caption for couple of years and it's good, but you need one for each site and they don't have it for GG and winamax, which is a major minus,

If you play on multiple sites I suggest jurojin. Never had issue and do what its suppose to do. Its free for now. I do think its won't be free forever but when its gonna happen I will consider other paid software.

Let me first say, you may not even need the caption programs depending on your needs. I used them primarily for bet sizing hotkeys and the betscript. IntuitiveTables has bet size hotkeys for all sites (except for GGpoker these hotkeys just trigger the built in GGPoker bet sizes).

To answer your question, I found Caption's table manager to be a bit "locked in". Meaning it was hard to move tables completely out of slots once they were added. His focus in my opinion is on adding a lot of features poker sites lack (which he does very well), but not totally on the table placement aspect. IntuitiveTables has a higher focus on table placement and lets you set up separate grids for watching and playing which I used a lot when grinding cash specifically to monitor tables. I personally love being able to left click + drag tables from anywhere on the table to move them, and to be able to right click + drag tables out of the way when needed.

Also, I believe IntuitiveTables has the best default grid builder in the market. You start off with 4 or 5 grids (2x2, 3x2, 4x3 etc) optimized for your monitor and you can add new grids faster and adjust the size of all slots much easier than any other software out there. Configure a few Bet Size hotkeys, make sure sites are setup correctly and you are fully ready to go in under 10 minutes.

The last thing I'll say is that IntuitiveTables coordinates table urgency across 15+ sites. This means you can actually play more tables and always keep focus on the most important table (the one that's been urgent the longest). I don't believe the caption programs track user action required on all the sites you play.
