♠ Keep Track of Opponents at the Poker Table With New Poker Analyst App for Apple Mobile Devices

Sophisticated Yet Easy-To-Use App Gives Poker Players An Edge By Making Notes And Assigning Attributes To Opponents In Any Game


CALGARY, ALBERTA--(Marketwire - Nov. 21, 2011) - PA Associates today announces a new version of Poker Analyst App – a powerful yet easy-to-use application for Apple mobile devices which allows poker players to make detailed real-time observations on their opponents in any poker game anywhere.

The intuitive interface of Poker Analyst App allows players to quick access to managing the table and updating information on their opponents – select seats, assign stats to a seat, add to the hand count total, and add characteristics to players such as style of play (tight, loose, passive, calling station) and type of hands played (top pair, top kicker; folds to re-raise, flush, straight).

Points are automatically assigned to players based on their play. Highlight a player and a positive or negative number appears at the top of the screen with a playing percentage.

Poker Analyst App gives poker players an edge by allowing them to notice patterns develop which can help them decide who they want to play and who they want to stay away from.

The app can be used for cash tables, tournament games or Internet play as well as any variation of poker, from Texas hold 'em to Omaha to stud.

Application highlights include:
  • Add players by name or ID
  • Clear players from the table and add them back to other games in the future (with all stats saved)
  • Move players between seats when the table changes
  • Delete unwanted players permanently
  • Darken the screen between play to keep the stats to yourself
  • Customize the characteristics you want to keep track of
  • Differentiate players based on positive and negative play behavior
Bernie Derksen, spokesman for developer PA Associates said, "We developed the Poker Analyst app to help poker players keep track of all the action as it unfolds at any poker table. The feedback has been fantastic and we're looking forward to helping give astute poker players a little more edge in every hand they play!"

Poker analyst app is also flexible enough for players to develop their own system of play. To view one system of play at the landing page www.pokeranalystapp.com. Further systems will be shared in the future.
The fully updated version of Poker Analyst App is now available from the iTunes Store for the special promotional price of $4.99 until December 1, 2011 when it will revert to its regular price of $7.99.

Poker Analyst App is 8mb in size and is compatible with iPod Touch, iPad and iPhone with iOS4.0 or later.

Fans may remember him from his appearance back in August of this year, when he sported Live at the Bike headphones and sat with Bart Hanson in the booth. However, this time Newnum will be seated at the table with a rack of yellow chips to show that there is more to WhoJedi than policing the twitter community.

Newnum is an avid poker player with many internet and live tournament cashes, including a first place No Limit Hold'em trophy that he won at a nearby Los Angeles casino, earlier this week.

Greg Sessler
Newnum will be joined at the table by the Mega Millions Series II runner up, Greg Sessler, and the AM-790 KLAC Petros & Money VIP to make for an interesting Friday line-up.

Bell Gardens, CA. November 8, 2011 - The Bicycle Casino is elated to announce that The World Series of Poker is coming to Los Angeles.

www.wsop.com
On January 1, 2012, The Bicycle Casino will be the newest stop on The World Series of Poker Circuit Tour, kicking off the year with a wide spectrum of events spread over 19 days. Poker aficionados will appreciate the diverse schedule and flock to the Bicycle Casino luxurious and spacious Event Center to play popular games like No Limit Hold’em, 2-7 Triple Draw, Badugi, Stud and Omaha with buy-ins starting as low as $150 to as much as $1,600, and everything in between.

The one thing that the Bicycle Casino has to offer that few casinos on the WSOP Circuit Tour can is the Live at the Bike final table live stream. Several of the WSOP-C ring event final tables will be streamed live, with a 1 hour delay, on liveatthebike.com. Not to be confused with a boring static stream, Live at the Bike boasts hole card graphics and the action will be analyzed by commentators Bart Hanson, David Tuckman, Nichoel Jurgens and Adam Strohl who will also be interacting with the viewing audience though social media.

The WSOP Circuit Tour begins with the $345 No Limit Hold’em Re-entry Event, that allows players eliminated in Day 1A to re-enter on Day 1B for a second chance opportunity to win the first WSOP ring of the year. Other key events on the schedule are the $555 6-Max No Limit Hold’em event, the $345 Omaha 8 or Better event and the $1080 No Limit Hold’em event.

The $1,600 Main Event Championship is a three day event slated for January 10, 2012, with re-entry available during the evening flight on Day 1. Not only will the main event winner receive a coveted WSOP diamond encrusted ring, he or she will receive an automatic entry into the National Championship at the end of the season.

The Bicycle Casino’s series will culminate in the $500,000 Guaranteed No Limit Hold’em $150 re-entry tournament. Spread over 7 days, players will have two opportunities per day to qualify for the semi-finals on January 18th, with nine finalists returning on January 19th for the Live at the Bike final table that will be live streamed on liveatthebike.com.

Nightly 8 pm $150 No Limit Hold’em Turbos will be held January 1st through the 7th, and there are 5 pm $150 No Limit Hold’em Deepstack (15,000 chips) on January 4th - 6th.

♠ The Bicycle Casino is Giving Away an IPad2 Every Day in November

iPad in November
The Bicycle Casino has announced that it is giving away an iPad2 to the High Hand* of the day, every day in November. Play any of The Bike's Plaza Games, including Live at the Bike, in November and you too could win an iPad2.

How it works: The Plaza Floor will track each qualifying High-Hand starting at midnight. If, for example, a player at a $2-3 No Limit Hold'em ($100-$300) table shows Quad 4s on the board at 1:00 p.m., then Quad 4s will be announced as the High-Hand to beat. If at 4:00 p.m. a player shows Quad 8s at the $40-80 Limit Hold'em table, then Quad 8s is the High-Hand to beat. If at 10:00 p.m. a player sitting in a $10-25 ($1000+) No Limit Hold'em game shows a 6-High Straight Flush, then the 6-High Straight Flush will be the High-Hand to beat. If by 11:59 p.m., no other hand is better than a 6-High Straight Flush, the player who showed the High-Hand will win an iPad2.

The first player to show a Royal Flush will immediately win the iPad2 for the day.

*High-Hand is Quads or better. The High-Hand to beat will be posted in the Plaza Section. Players must show both cards for his/her hand to qualify, but only one of the hole cards is needed to complete the hand.

♠ Pokertracker to Sponsor World Series of Poker 2011 Player of the Year Ben Lamb

PokerTracker 4 Video Previews Available Now: http://preview.pokertracker.com

LAS VEGAS, NV (Marketwire - November 5, 2011) PokerTracker announced that is proud to sponsor the 2011 World Series of Poker Player of the year, Ben “Benba” Lamb. In addition to wearing the PokerTracker lo target="blank_"go at the 2011 World Series of Poker Main Event Final Table starting November 6, 2011, Lamb will provide consulting services for the soon to be released PokerTracker 4 to assure that the online poker software tool meets the standards required by poker players.

Ben Lamb will not only be representing the PokerTracker brand, he will also play an instrumental role in helping us fine tune the soon to be released PokerTracker 4 for online poker players across the globe.

                                                              ~ Steven McLoughlin, PokerTracker

Ben Lamb’s WSOP earnings to date total $2,157,249. Lamb earned his first WSOP bracelet in this year’s $10k Pot Limit Omaha World Championship and has twelve WSOP cashes over the past 5 years. Lamb also earned the 2011 WSOP Player of the Year honor, where in addition to starting the Main Event Final Table 5th in chips and garnering the $10k PLO World Championship, he also finished 2nd in the $3k Pot Limit Omaha event, 8th in the $50k Poker Players Championship, and 12th in the $10k No Limit 6-Handed World Championship.

Every successful poker player knows that poker is a game of skill. PokerTracker is a tool that skillful players use for post-game analysis while simplifying in-game evaluation of opponents at the virtual felt. PokerTracker has continued to be the mainstay for poker statistical analytics software for ten years amidst the uncertain legal status of online poker in the United States. PokerTracker’s users from other countries continue to enjoy the ability to legally play online poker in places such as the United Kingdom, Italy, France and Spain. As a U.S. citizen, Lamb is unable to play online poker in the country of his birth, but this union will allow PokerTracker to capitalize on Lamb’s years of experience as a winning professional poker player at both live and online play. Lamb will help to enhance the fourth version of this popular poker software tool so that PokerTracker can continue to gain an edge over the competition.

♠ About PokerTracker Software LLC

PokerTracker Software, LLC is the premier developer of online poker software tools and is considered the leading innovator in the field of statistical poker analysis. In addition to the first commercially available tracker for online poker play, the developers of PokerTracker created the commonly used statistics referenced regularly on poker TV shows such as “Voluntarily Put Money in Pot,” “Pre Flop Raise” and “Aggression Frequency.” The company’s founders also created the PokerAce Heads-Up Display, the first successful tool to provide real-time opponent information to online poker players.
