System requirements:
- 4+GB of free RAM for comfortable usage (full single-raised-pot with 2/3 pot bets everywhere takes about 1.2GB of RAM for wide 6max ranges and 1.9GB for wide HU ranges (90% vs 70%)); you need more for trees with multiple bet sizes (25bb HU tree with 2 sizes everywhere (30%-60%) is 5.9GB, 100bb tree with 2 sizes everywhere and 6max ranges is 7.8GB; the trees are proportionally smaller with smaller ranges).
- modern 64-bit CPU (for comfortable usage i5/i7 quad or equivalent is recommended but we tested on older quads as well and it will work just slower (anywhere from 2x to 5x slower))
- modern Windows (7 or newer) (but see next point)
- Mac works. Our customers run the solver using Parallels or Bootcamp. If you would like to give it a shot, try the free-version first.
- modern .Net Framework (available for free on Microsoft's website, already present on most modern computers)
PioSOLVER is a very fast GTO solver for Holdem. It handles postflop spots with arbitrary starting ranges, stack sizes, bet sizes as well as desired accuracy. It's the first in a new generation of tools moving poker from a game based mainly on intuition to a game based on analysis and math. I used both, piosolver and simple postflop and simple postflop was much easier to use and much faster! Thx u guys, good job! 03 October 2019. Switched from pio to simple and very happy about this. I believe simplepostflop is the best poker solver on the market, much faster than gtoplus and pio.

Solution trees: Best portable drive for mac.
- A typical tree takes anywhere from 500MB to 4GB of RAM if you use one bet size. Once you start adding bet-sizes you can build as big tree as your RAM can handle. If you are curious about specific trees, feel free to drop us an email. In general 16GB of RAM is almost never a limitation while 8GB sometimes is for really big trees with multiple bet sizes.
- It's possible to save a tree and resume execution later. If you decide you want better quality of the solution you can always resume solving for a little more time
- Quality of the solutions is expressed as exploitability per hand. If the solution is 'exploitable' for x It means that perfect adversary (one knowing our exact strategy and employing best possible counter strategy) would expect to win x/hand. For example if the solution is exploitable by 0.25 with 5$/10$ blinds and 65$ starting pot (typical postflop spot) it means perfect adversary could win 0.25$/hand = 2.5bb/100. With PioSOLVER it's easy to get this kind of quality (I usually solve to something like 1bb/100). To put those numbers in perspective, rake in typical MSNL game these days is about 15-30bb/100 per player (remember that we are talking about postflop situations).
User input required for the solver to start:
- Starting ranges of both players
- Starting pot and stack
- Bet sizes, raise sizes and other optional settings to customize the tree
- Additional optional input: required accuracy, required solving time, number of threads to use, flop donkbet allowed/disallowed.
Text interface:
Cinema 4d software download. Cinema 4D Broadcast includes the Prime features but also provides support for making motion graphics. Cinema 4D Visualize is great if you need to fabricate realistic animations, while the Studio version is intended for professional 3D artists, and comprises all the best features Cinema 4D. Cinema 4D is a pillar in our users’ everyday workflow. This is why we make sure from the start that new functions work intuitively and are exactly where users will expect to find them. The Cinema 4D layout can also be easily customized to precisely fit a user’s needs and saved for later use.
- PioSOLVER is a standalone console program which communicates with outside world via text, human readable interface. This architecture makes it easy to integrate with other software (first of which is PioVIEWER) and to write scripts for it. This is very similar (and inspired by) to how chess engines work. Users who prefer to use GUI don't need to know about it. It's possible to queue the trees for solving using our graphical interface only.
- See documentation of text interface of PioSOLVER
Performance:
- PioSOLVER implements benchmark command to measure how good your hardware is for solving big trees. It measures how many seconds it takes to do a few iterations on a sizeable tree (2.2GB). To see your benchmark time start PioSOLVER and type 'bench'. On my 3 years old quad (i7-3770 @ 3.4 GHz) I get 10 seconds as of today (PioSOLVER 1.4.1 July 10th 2015). Here are some logs for solving typical spots using this hardware, every test run until 0.25% of the pot accuracy is reached. The solver doesn't have problems getting it down to 0.1% but it's very rarely practical as the solution doesn't change much at that point (even 0.25% is a bit of an overkill). The solver is significantly faster on suited or paired boards and 3x faster on monotone (or same-rank) ones. Out of 1755 flops in Holdem 286 are rainbow unpaired, 1170 are either paired or suited and 299 are monotone or same rank. Average flop is about 1.64x faster than rainbow unpaired one.

One more example to give you an idea how good the performance is. In a recent Claudico vs humanity match the AI was stalling for often 30 seconds to recalculate the rivers. As explained by the authors, multiple bet sizes were needed and Claudico still needed to use lossy abstraction (which was one big factor contributing to it losing the match miserably) which caused it to miss blocker effect.
Claudico had a machine with 32 cores available for the task.
PioSOLVER doesn't use multiple cores for river cases (there was never a reason to implement it), doesn't use ANY abstraction and thus produces exact solutions with all the card-blockers fine points taken into account.
Even though we hold PioSOLVER to much higher standards it needs only a few seconds to rich almost perfect solution for even the biggest river situations. It's safe to say if allowed to use multiple cores PioSOLVER is at least 2 orders of magnitude faster and all that on your home PC!
Other remarks:
- If you are running PioSOLVER pro/edge for extended amount of time (several hours or more without breaks) be sure to control CPU temperature. If your cooling system isn't in stellar condition or you live in hot climate the CPU may overheat (typically i'7s are comfortable up to about 90-95C). Reducing amount of threads (especially for CPU's with hyperthreading like i7) helps with that aspect without too much of a performance penalty. It may well be the first program to really test limits of your CPU so just be sure the fans etc. are working properly.
- It's now possible to run PioSOLVER edge on Virtual Machines and cloud servers. All you need is Windows installation there and some care about activating/deactivating the licenses when switching the VMs.
- Pro and basic versions are not suitable for cloud instances (VPS) but you can run them on dedicated servers where you get a dedicated machine.
Local computations
for weak and powerful PCs
Simple Postflop has several calculation algorithms. Users with powerful PC could use the fastest and most resource-intensive algorithm, while owners of weak computers can use less resource-intensive algorithms.
Very fast and free
calculation of GTO strategies
on Turn and River
To familiarize with the program, absolutely all users are provided with a set of free options: free GTO calculation on the turn and river, three solved flops from the book of John Juanda, solved preflop tree Will Tipton, as using all flops during calculation, and using different subsets of flops during the calculation.
Calculation of GTO even on Preflop!
Locally with Standalone License
or by the request in Cloud
The license for local calculations of equilibrium strategies allows you to make calculations, both on postflop and pre-flop in unlimited quantities. Preflop calculations are a resource-intensive task, which first of all requires a huge amount of RAM - from hundreds of gigabytes to tens of hundreds of terabytes. Simple Poker provides a service for the calculation of pre-flop trees of almost any complexity on a cluster of hundreds of servers upon your request, payment is made in preflop points.
Displaying of strategies, EV and equity
for every played hand in every situation
in builded tree
The program includes a set of different representations of solutions that allow for a comprehensive and qualitative analysis of the solutions obtained. Sets of metrics in the reports characterize the parameters of decisions, and also serve as valuable sources of information for analyzing the solution.
Possible to fix some strategies
during the calculation
The program can be used as a calculator for calculating the EV hands. Also, the program allows you to calculate the exploiting strategies after a the strategy of one player will be fixed.
Calculation of bulk of flops one by one for every 1755 significant types of flops.
Simple Postflop allows you to calculate probabilities in poker and build an optimal strategy for the player's actions. Building a bet tree, generated by pressing a button, will instantly calculate all possible flop variants. The program also allows you to analyze the result taking into account the various actions of the opponent. In addition, the player can edit the generated tree by adding or removing actions in it. The program takes into account combinations of cards (flops) of equal importance and reduces them to 1755 flops, which simplifies the calculation of the strategy. All these combinations are unique and include all possible moves in the player's chosen strategy, and the calculation is as close as possible to the equilibrium strategy.
Calculation of GTO for NL Holdem and FL Holdem
Due to the flexible configuration, the program can be used to calculate Holdem with both fixed (Fixed limit) and unlimited sizes of bets. The user can build different betting trees, depending on which version he plays - NL Holdem or FL Holdem.
Available on MacOS via Parallels and Bootcamp
The user should note that the program is not supported by the MacOS operating system. The solution in this case can be the use of virtualization programs - Parallels or Bootcamp. These programs allow you to install Windows on a computer running MacOS. At the same time, these decisions have significant differences. If you use Bootcamp, Windows will be started on the machine as the main system, and the user will not be able to use MacOS and Windows at the same time. Parallels allows you to use both systems simultaneously. In this case, it creates a virtual machine where Windows is already installed.
