PokerTracker 4 (PT4)
PokerTracker 4, or PT4, is a software program that records hand histories from online poker, and shows statistics, analysis and records of your results. It is used by many online players.
The simple explanation
The program saves every hand you play online into a database. You can see your win rate, find your mistakes and look at the statistics of your opponents on a heads-up display.
A closer look
PT4 is a competitor of Hold'em Manager. It provides filters, reports and a HUD, and players use it to review sessions and to find leaks. Many sites limit or ban trackers or HUDs, so check the rules. A tracker is only useful if you have enough hands: thousands are needed to see patterns. Use the data for study, and do not only chase the numbers.
A practical example
A player imports 100,000 hands into PokerTracker 4 and sees that he loses money in the small blind.
