Tournament Indicator

Tournament Indicator (TI) is the ultimate Texas holdem tournament poker tool. Unlike other poker tools, this one is designed to specifically help you in tournament play. This calculator deals with the specific realities of tournament poker to give you the information you need.

Poker calculators and tracking software are designed to give you information about your play, and your opponents play. The problem is that they are built for cash games, or in some cases, specifically for sit n go tournaments. These calculators and trackers will usually collect information from your multi table tournaments (MTT’s), but won’t analyze the information with MTT strategy in mind.

The developers of TI also built Holdem Indicator, which helps players in the cash game world. It automatically attaches to your table, and gives real time information about the hands you’re playing. Realizing that there was a big difference in tournament thinking, they decided to tackle the problem for tournament players as well.

When you play in tournaments, the blinds are going up every few minutes. This is done to keep the game active. As the blinds become larger, they eat away at your stack if you don’t take action. Eventually, this affects how you will play.

No poker tool has dealt with this issue yet. TI takes this into consideration, understanding that players make very different decisions when the blinds and antes equal a larger percentage of their stack. These differences aren’t incorrect necessarily, even though they might seem to be at first glance.

Dan Harrington, WSOP Main Event champion, wrote a very comprehensive, set of books on tournament play. The most profound information he leaked out into the amateur world of poker, was the concept he calls M. M is the number of orbits around the table you can make before you run out of chips.

The lower you M gets, the closer you are to being “blinded out”. This makes it imperative that you take some action. An accurate analysis of this gives you a good idea of what hands you need to play, and when.

Most players don’t appreciate the difference, and just play the cards. Knowing how to play when your M is 5, or 10 is critical. Realizing that your opponents M will affect his decisions also is equally important.

TI addresses this situation for you. This can give you the confidence that you are playing correctly when you go all in with what seems like a weak hand. These choices are often what separate decent MTT players versus very good MTT players.

This tool is not for beginners. It is design for intermediate to advanced players. You need enough experience to be able to use the information available.

Tournament Indicator is a one of a kind software that is designed specifically to help you make better decisions in the middle and late stages of MTT events. Better play in these stages can lead to deeper runs, and bigger cashes.
