Game Overview

Players start with a starting stack of $500 of play money. Players are eliminated when they no longer have money. The Blind levels increase steadily at regular intervals. A tournament ends once one player has all of the Money and that player is declared the winner.


Blind Levels

The Blind Levels will increase as the game progresses similar to an actual No-Limit Texas Holden Tournament. For the Free Poker Game, the Blinds will increase based on a combination of remaining players and hands played.



Prize For Winning

The only Prize for Winning is Bragging Rights. But, hopefully, you use the Free Poker Game as a learning tool or to just have fun. Feel Free to Contact Us with your results if you want to brag.

These stats are targeted at important areas of the Fundamentals of Online Poker allowing the users to profile their games and improve.

We have chosen the most important Hud stats to help players analyze and improve their game.


Positional Report

The Positional Report is one of the most important reports a player can run. This report will allow the player to understand if they are leveraging position to their advantage. Players should ideally be playing the most hands when they are in the best positions.

Your Opponents - The Bots

The Free Poker Game is designed as a learning tool to help players become better players. Your opponents (bots) have a strategy they follow based on starting hand strength, position, board texture, bet sizing, and pot odds. Based on probability and mathematics the game should mimic an actual game against an opponent playing this style.



Raises and the Raise Buttons

The Raise Buttons allow the users to have pre-defined raise sizes such as 1/2 pot and 3/4 pot. The ( + ) and ( - ) buttons add one big blind or remove one big blind from the size. All Texas Holdem bet sizing rules are enforced as per a real game. As per Texas Holdem rules, a raise amount must be at least as much as the previous bet or raise in the same round. As an example, if the first player to act bets $15 then the second player must raise a minimum of $15 (total bet of $30). Also note when using the predefined raise buttons, that the amount populated in the (Raise to) button also includes any call amount. So, when you raise half pot you are calling the previous bet and adding a half pot bet to that call.



HUD Stat Definitions

HUD which stands for Heads Up Display is a component of Poker Tracking Software which most serious online Players use. By examining your own HUD Stats you can analyze strengths and weaknesses in your game.

VPIP - Voluntarily Put Money in the Pot
This is a percentage of how many times a player puts money into the pot preflop by limping, raising, or calling. The Blinds are not included in this stat because this bet is not voluntary as the player is forced to put money into the pot. VPIP is important because it shows how many hands someone is playing indicating if they are a tight or loose player.

PFR - Preflop Raise
This is a percentage of how often this player raises preflop. This stat should be used in conjunction with the VPIP and can indicate how aggressive a player is. Someone with a very low PFR may only be raising with Aces or Kings where as someone with a very high PFR is raising any playable two cards.

CBET - Continuation Bet
This is a percentage of how often this player continues to bet on the flop after taking the lead preflop.

3BET - Three Bet
This is a percentage of how often this player 3 Bets when facing a single raise. It's considered a 3-bet when a player raises a raise.

C3B - Called Three Bet
This is a percentage of how often a player facing a 3 Bet, calls the 3 Bet.

F3B - Fold to Three Bet
The percentage of how often a player has raised pre-flop, and then folded when another Player 3 Bets them.

WTSD - Went to Showdown
The percentage of how often a player, after seeing the flop, does not fold and goes all the way to showdown.
