Fair play
Built for study, used within the rules
PokerIQ helps you understand decisions: before a session, between sessions and when you review your hands. It is not a way to get help during a real-money game where the rules forbid it.
What PokerIQ is for
- Working through spots you want to understand, with the maths and the reasoning side by side.
- Drilling with the Trainer, which deals practice hands and grades your choice against the engine.
- Reviewing hands after a session, with Coach and your saved hand history.
- Studying alongside training videos, hand histories and books.
Real-time assistance
PokerIQ isn’t built to help you during a hand, and it isn’t meant to be used that way. Most online poker sites ban software that advises you during a hand in real-money games, and some close accounts and keep balances when they find it. Use PokerIQ between sessions: to work through spots, drill and review.
What PokerIQ doesn’t do
PokerIQ doesn’t connect to poker software, read your screen or tables, import live hands, or play for you. Every hand in it is one you entered yourself.
The companion window
The companion window keeps the numbers beside your study material: next to a training video, a hand history or your notes. Like the rest of PokerIQ, it isn’t for use during a hand.
Live games
Most card rooms don’t allow devices to be used during a hand, and PokerIQ isn’t meant for it. Note your hands and review them after the session.
Play responsibly
Poker is for adults (18+) and real-money play carries real risk. PokerIQ can’t guarantee results. If gambling stops being fun, help is free and confidential: visit begambleaware.org or gamcare.org.uk, or call the National Gambling Helpline on 0808 8020 133.
