You have just bet your entire stack on the fact that your full house is better than your opponent’s trips and for the third time, he, he, you have lost as the other players at the table commensurate at how unlucky you got this time again. Let’s have a look at what kind of “poker cheat” software exists today that might be helping your amazingly lucky opponent. And if it has to do with poker hole cards reading.

Poker Calculators. These know only your own cards and because they are sometimes keyed to the exact brand of poker game that you are playing, they know the seating positions and can calculate how likely it is that your own cards can win based on the amount of money in the pot, your own seated position and the cards already shown on the table and in your hand.

Most of us are likely to bluff when we have a pretty good hand or even just a 4-5-6 pair. But some straight up players simply never bluff at all. When you see them push it all in on the table, in their mind they think they have the nuts. Some poker calculators that store information about mucked cards may allow you to determine with a higher level of confidence, earlier in your playing cycle with such a player, whether that player is bluffing or not.

2. Poker Profile Databases – the best “open poker cheat secret” to gain advantage over your competition is to know their playing patterns and profiles. How often do they win, at what tables to do they win most, what is their playing style? Those questions can be answered with poker cheat databases that constantly collect publicly available data from the poker rooms. You can often buy software that creates an overlay over your poker room software. Not all poker rooms allow that, so often people run this kind of software on a separate computer while they do play and look up players as they encounter them. There is even software that alerts you to join poker tables that have a high amount of bad players in them. I would consider this a good poker cheat option.

3. Personal data mining behavior. In addition to public databases of player hand histories, Ms. “Can Do No Wrong” at your very own table may have an electronic assistant who collects any and all data possible about your betting behavior. On noting that you have obvious tells, she may put your on her list as a “Poker buddy” and you may never know. Well, if you are reading this and notice that Ms “Do no wrong” is constantly showing up at your tables, you know know – it wasn’t a coincidence and it was neither your perfume nor your cologne.

4. You have heard of Bots that play poker? These are software constructs that are created to play the perfect Poker game. They don’t and most really good players can beat them, which is why they are more frequently found at low currency tables. But on a day when the cards don’t fall right, a poker bot with reasonably good cards can definitely give a very good player a run for their money.

Now that we have covered what can happen, why don’t we talk about what can’t.

If looking at your hole cards were as easy as buying a 50 dollar software package, I would be looking at your hole cards right now. But I am not, and I can’t. Why? Poker establishments are continuing to spend staggering amounts of money to ensure that this really can’t happen. My suggestion, be unpredictable, keep em guessing and remain cool and cold, even when you have 4 pairs of tens.
