User Pre Defined Strategies:
Limit - A game in which all bets are in
increments of the betting limit. For example, in a $5-limit game, players can
bet or raise only $5 at a time
No Limit - A game in which, on his turn,
a player can bet all of his chips (or of his opponent's, if the bettor has
more), as opposed to a limit game, in which all bets and raises are in
multiples of the betting limit
Pot Limit - A game whose betting limit
is always equal to the current size of the pot. A raise can include the size of
the pot after the call is accounted for.
Heads Up - Pertaining to two players
playing a game by themselves.
Tournament - Competition among players,
sometimes with one buy-in, in which case it is often called a freeze-out
tournament, and then played down till there are a preset number of players
remaining, at which point all win the chips they have at that time, or till one
is left, at which point prizes are awarded that are percentages of the total
bought in, with the most for the first-place winner, next for second, and so
on.
Do not show Pre Flop percentage - select
this option if you do not want the odds displayed at the Pre Flop.

Advice Adjustment
Loose - Playing liberally; not tight In
high draw, usually implies drawing to all the little pairs, all the
four-straights and four-flushes, and many of the two-card draws to other than
trips, and often calling many bets and raises to do so. In hold 'em, playing
almost any two-card starting combination, and playing through to the river on
almost anything that has a prayer of winning.
Tight - Playing very conservatively;
showing little gamble; not likely to take a chance; having stringent playing
requirements. Compare with close to the chest, conservative, drummer, hardrock,
milker. nutted up, rocked up, rock, rocky, screwed down.
Table Position Calculation
Someone who plays position, that is, who is more or less liberal with his
opening requirements and more or less aggressive in the play of his hands,
dependent on his position with respect to the other players, or one vulnerable
player in particular.
Low - adjust to your preference.
High - adjust to your preference.
