texasWINthem Release Overview

Release Overview

Not yet released.

Auto Read Feature
Our clients are often requesting an Auto Read Feature. texasWINthem shall read the pocket cards as well as the community cards from the online poker client on its own. A lot of people confirm that the handling via shortcuts is good and efficient. But reading cards automatically would be even better, of course.
The Auto Read Feature is planned definitely.
Multi-Table Enabling
Some of our clients play simultaneously on more than one table. Currently, they open one texasWINthem per table. Since the screen is always too small, we plan to implement multi-tabling on tabs.

Not yet released, release planned for 2009-06-30.

Multi-Language Enabled Software
Second language (after English) will be German. Other candidates are French and Italian.

Release date: 2008-11-19

Scenarios for Pocket Card Evaluation
The default scenario for the evaluation of the pocket cards was a poker table with 10 players.
With this release there are 3 different scenarios. Of course, all of them can be edited as usual. The scenarios are a table with 10 people, a table with 6 people, and Heads Up.
Especially Heads Up is interesting, because it is much better predictable than a full table.
Adaptation of Existing (10-Handed) Scenario
Some pocket card ratings were adapted. E.g. Q9s and Q8s can be rated higher by default.
Optimized Handling in Option Dialogs
Together with the necessary changes for the support of multiple scenarios, the general handling of the option dialogs was improved.
Startable from Read-Only Medium
Up to release 1.2.3, texasWINthem was not startable from a read-only drive (as a CD or DVD). The reason is that a set of default parameters was written to the disk.
This behaviour was changed with this release. But of course it is not possible to save any changes to a read-only disk.

Nice Up the GUI
Up to version 1.0.0, development was focused mainly on the functionality. Therefore, the GUI was very functional and practical. But the program did not win a price for its prettiness... this has been changed with that release.

Calculate Opponent's Probabilities
The opponent's probabilities for all winning hands are calculated and displayed, taking the current set of pocket cards and the cards on the board into account.
Note: The probabilities per opponent are calculated, not the probabilities for all opponents together.
Visualization of Probabilities
The calculated probabilities (own and opponent's) are visualized and can be compared much faster and more easily.
