Attention Poker aficionados worldwide, here you get everything you need:

"Welcome to the world of Spades Advisor - a zero compromise app for everyone, who likes Poker!"

During the progression of the game the app instantly provides an overview about your hands chance of winning the pot on the following next game stage. In Poker thats achieved by receiving the strongest hand in play. If such a winning 5-card hand combination is unbeatable for every unknown hand, this is called the nuts. The app displays the nuts symbol for any user hand, which never looses against all of your opponents holdings before drawing additional community cards. Whats more, theres displayed how likely your hand does improve to a top hand by drawing the community cards of the next stage; including the odds of winning such a made hand.

You start your session by defining the number of players at the table, and selecting your preferred probability structure (% / odds / value). Then you have the option to select either "Fast" or "Precise" as configuration. As a result the advice procedure uses either 1,000 or 5,000 game experiments to evaluate your equity of winning. The hands chance of winning is automatically updating without the need to touch the "Advise" button, when having the "Auto" configuration enabled. Its always automatically done, after each hand specification you have made. Beside that, you can choose the settings "Fast" together with "Auto" to accelerate things up, and the feedback is almost immediate on every iOS 7 compatible devices.

Always at the very beginning of the hand you decide on the overall quality of all your opponents pre-flop holdings. First and foremost, your choice is based on the whole pre-flop betting curse, as well as your opponents playing styles. This very critical setup implicitly specifies your oppositions starting hand range. Its done by touching on the desired playing profile in the bottom of the screen. Therere 6 playing profiles to choose from: "Any 2", "Loose", "Mixed", "Tight", "Strong", and "Top".

Whereas the profile "Mixed" is at most times perfectly appropriate for various playing styles altogether. Its appropriate for most common betting scenarios, when theres no one with a tight game approach betting a large amount. Therefore, its recommended to start with this profile as default, and change it accordingly, if needed.
At any time touching on a playing profile draws and displays 3, 2, or 1 generalized starting hand(s); ordered by their pre-flop impact (strongest/average/worst). Depending on the amount of involved opponents you receive a random hand example. This greatly helps you to learn more about the range of opponent hands, which are expected to remain in the game.

Everything is designed to work easily and smoothly, and theres absolutely nothing complicated or even stressing about the app. In the background all the hamsters are pushing the algorithmic wheel, without much ado or further requirements. This eliminates your distraction, and also achieves the right difficulty-to-skill balance, to forget to think about using the app and therefore being able to concentrate on the game.

Spades Advisor makes the math of Poker understandable for everyone, without the need to be a geek, or a Sheldon, to read long manuals, nor to learn all about probability. Applied poker math made simple and painless - this have been my uttermost design principles.
