Play Your Hands with Confidence

Whether you’re a beginner or been playing poker for a long time, it can be frustrating to figure out how to play your hands at a poker table. There are lot of poker guidances out there to help you improve your game with different strategies, but they can get overwhelming. Moreover, they tend to be too theoretical and piecemeal. To make learning poker easy and practical, we compiled various statistical data from the web so that you don't have to spend your time researching and wondering what you should have done. Just enter your cards and the community cards (i.e. the "board") scenario and we will tell you what to do.

Please keep in mind that the strategy incorporated here is based on long-term statistical results. Thus, at times, you may lose in short-term, but you should win overall in long-term.

We tried to incorporate all possible scenarios, but if we missed one or few, please don't hesitate to let us know by E-mailing us at service@PokerCnD.com. We'll do our research and incorporate any missing scenario(s).
