Hands in the lower left are off suit

** clicking on one of the cells above will send you to another blog giving more detail about that hand

NOTE --- the image is an edited version of the one taken from here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Texas_hold_'em_starting_hands

I did not so much "author" as assemble this Project (with a lot of the output coming from a poker eval adapted program)

You will really want to read the "Notes on this Table" Links that are RIGHT justified below each of the three tables. You will also want to read the PP Domination Are you Dominated" link available only for Pocket Pairs. These notes are not per page so once read and understood, they may be ignored. Anything said on these pages is written by me unless I make a quote, which will be referenced.

I want to thank grisan, TRB1965, and lottie531 for their help in making this

And version 2 is coming soon.. Look at what PookieGirl2 is doing to this server with this code grisan wrote

"NoFoldem simulator working its way through 1.521 TRILLION simulations, beating the crap out of my 8 processor server"

it will be a part of Blue Heron ( version 2 )
prototype page here : Test Page for Blue Heron Version 2

There will be several index pages like this one: Tight Poker EV rankings

a test of the simulation can be viewed here: New Random Generator Simulation Results

what book did u get this out of? i want to read it..nice post should help a lot of people...me being one of them
SmileyHere Jul 13, 2007 2:42 am

WE are by no means done here....

I plan shortly to fill in all blanks, and have all playable hands, plus 72o and 72s

The real info comes from looking at the individual hands, and flipping back and forth...

click on the hands above (in the table) there are links for all PP and AKs, although some of the info is yet incomplete (note the date of this comment)

Those are Sklanskys' starting hand Groups, and one of the books they are listed is "Hold'Em Poker" by David Sklansky.

any feedback is appreciated

Why do you say this as if 72o isn't a playable hand! mad

Nice job though - looks very nice.

I can't imagine the work that has been put in to this wonderful project. I have bookmarked this blog, and will check it often. Keep up the great work!

Wow real poker info in a blog, I'm impressed !
SmileyHere Aug 1, 2007 12:15 am

A little bit more to the Notes Pages, and to the Front Page

but all the hand pages are solid

All Railbirds: If you're reading this far, ya already know - check out the complete (to date) Project Blue Heron at Smiley's page. This incredible piece of work (with the assistance of grisan, TRB1965, & lottie531 - who SmileyHere rightfully refers to as "Goddess"wink exemplifies the true "poker spirit" of Railbirds.com.

Well done!
