Hi,

I was wondering if there was an app where I put in the board and my hand and it gives me the nuts, the draws, etc.

Thank you.

Flopzilla does something a bit like that.

If you enter a starting range and a flop, it will tell you how much of your range made top pair, OESD, FD etc. It won't actually tell you what the nuts is though. You need eyes for that.

Thanks so much! I just checked it out... need to get familiar with it.

Search for poker equity calculator. That's prob what your looking for

I found one here: https://www.cardplayer.com/poker-too...r/texas-holdem

Thanks for the tip. I'm realizing that maybe what I'm looking for doesn't exist or it's not useful. When the flop came, I used to had a really heard time knowing what hands and draws I have. Thus, it was hard for me to know where I stood (nuts, second nuts, ...). I'm practicing board reading, but never know if I really have caught all the possible hands that the board offers. I thought having a software that does that would help me.

I'll keep practicing.

This is something you can and should practice. When you aren't playing, grab a deck of cards, and deal a flop, then analyze what the nuts would be in each case. When you are playing, when you aren't in a hand, do the same. Look for ways that the board connects (are there three cards within close enough range to make a straight. Is there a flush out there), as well as the possible draws that could exist.

Do this many, many times, and it will eventually get to be second nature. Reading board texture is not necesarily something that you need software for (doing equity analysis of that board texture against possible ranges is, on the other hand, something that you absolutely can use software for).

As far as the cardplayer calculator, it is great for doing quick equity analysis, but it cannot calculate against ranges. You should download Equilab and play with it.

I know what OP means but I think it's just a case of practice, practice as @SpewingIsMyMove suggests.

I'm only starting on this poker journey myself and I'd lose hands because I never even saw the possibility that villain might have made a straight. Now it's something I check for all the time.

Some quick (and really basic) shortcuts for other things.....

To make a flush the board must have 3 cards of the same suit so as soon as there are 2 start thinking about flush possibilities.

To make a full house or quads the board must have a pair so as soon as the board pairs trips might well not be good enough, although it might.

It is not uncommon for players, even pro's, to get so fixated on their hand and their read of their opponent that they lose track of other draws out there. Here is an amusing example.

You lost, bro

Thank you, guys. Yeah, lots of practice... I checked out Equilab and will play around with it. The video is painful to watch, but, I guess, we've all been there.
