    Hand sampler software

    Does anyone know of a software that generates virtual hands round-after-round and lets you test your strategy in many different ways ? I've recently found the following video, after a long and unsuccesful search over the Internet but the uploader doesn't seem to provide with a download link.

    Youtube page clearly states it is a video of a beta app. Beta status implies that it is usually not yet available to the general public.

    Why don't you post a message in response to the video on tikasoft's youtube page?

    You're right, I just thought that there must be some sort of that kind of software already out there and I just don't know it. The whole idea doesn't seem that original, so there are chances another developer has produced something similar already available.

    @ Stealth

    I am writing a paper on probabilities and I could use something like that, given that the player strategy can be modifie

    I am in the process of creating such a program. It is resting heavily on a database (see my handle) and logs every single hand played along with the BS strategy and bet strategy. It allows playing against the same exact series of boots.

    It would deliver the results as a flat file on an FTP on email which could be eventually fed to a reader app.

    This is all experimental of course and I am not looking for paid clients as of now, but a couple beta users would be great.

    Main advantage is that it would function according to the SaaS model and be hosted in the cloud. Basically your computer will not be doing the sims, a server would for you and deliver the results.

    This is all done for fun, btw. Making bucks is not my priority.

    This is worse than useless unless there are at least hundreds of millions of hands. And, why would you think that playing against the exact same hands has any meaning? Is that what happens in a casino? And further, do you understand that the way you play affects further hands?

    It is not useless to me. I can see how adjusting basic indices and betting ramp would change the outcome. Yes, millions of hands and the stats that go with it. It's all a question of computing power, time and, of course, competent coding.
