01 / How Poker Studio reads a handReal feature · sample data

Raw text becomes a hand you understand.

You upload the hand history exactly as PokerStars writes it. Poker Studio reads it line by line, replays it at the table, keeps your thought on the street and files the hand in your list – with everything the stats make of it.

03 / The loop7 building blocks · all live

Seven building blocks. One account.

From import through the replayer and your thoughts to training your own ranges: everything that happens between two sessions, in one place and under one account.

01 · Import & hand list

Every hand, grouped by session – filtered right in the column.

Drop your PokerStars files into the window. The list shows every hand with cards, position, board, showdown and result; the stats strip computes over exactly the filter you just set.

  • Filters in the column header: every data column filters instantly and sorts
  • Card filters for hand, flop, turn and river: exact card, rank, suited, flop suit pattern
  • Showdown outcome including split, result threshold in bb
  • “Create filter” dialog and filter profiles as quick buttons – also relative, such as “last 7 days”
  • Choose your stats: VPIP, PFR, 3-bet, steal, c-bet, WTSD, W$SD, bb/100 …
  • Tournament context: bubble, pay jump, final table, ICM values per hand

06 / Closed BetaReviewed by hand

I am looking for players who tell me what doesn’t work.

I’m Stefan Maksimek and I build Poker Studio. Until now it has grown behind a closed door. That is not enough. In the closed beta I open the door to a small group – in exchange for honest feedback.
