Bankroll + opponent intel · one app

Your brain forgets.
PokerReads doesn't.

It reads them for you — a perfect, persistent poker memory. Opponent notes, hand-history synthesis, bankroll math, and behavioral analytics in one private app. Bring your PT4 / Hand2Note / HM3 history and we turn nine years of orphaned hands into reads on every villain you've played. PBT shows you what happened. PokerReads tells you why.

The read: barrels turn big after flop x/c with strong-but-not-nut hands, then folds 4/4 to a jam. The attack point is not a vibe; it is cited hand by hand.

What it refuses to claim: river bluff frequency and true 3-bet defense are still open. More hands upgrade the confidence map.

The 3-act session

One private memory for the whole arc.

Most poker apps are a graph after the fact. PokerReads is the place your opponent notes, session context, and bankroll review finally live together — before the game and after the session, without drifting into real-time strategy advice.

01 Before the session

Walk in already prepped.

Your Operating Brief is the only screen you need before you sit down. It scores readiness, surfaces the weakest link in your bankroll, and tells you the next three moves before you stack chips.

  • Readiness score from your true bankroll, recent variance, and account health.
  • Next 3 moves — concrete, ranked, action-tonight specific.
  • Refresh-stale-reads loop so you arrive with current evidence, not last quarter's notes.
Open your Operating Brief
02 Between hands & between sessions

Discipline checks, not strategy advice.

PokerReads does not tell you what to do in a live hand. It helps with the layer around the hands: stop-loss discipline, mood drift before tilt sets in, and refreshing reads on opponents you've already studied so the data is current before you sit.

  • Stop-loss and mood check-ins — your intent, your discipline, your saved session context.
  • Pre-session lineup prep — use an expected lineup screenshot before the session to surface reads you've already written.
  • Voice notes & quick reads capture what happened so it is in your post-session memory, not lost.

03 After the session

Your week in poker, on Sunday night.

Sunday rolls around. Open Weekly Review and see what changed: best game, biggest leak, account drift, and a recommended next-week plan you can actually act on.

  • Four-week trend bars so you see whether last week was an outlier or a pattern.
  • Best game vs biggest leak, ranked across venue, stakes, day, and session length.
  • Recommended next-week plan — short, opinionated, never a wall of charts.

Demo read

The read: Flops a set and gets it in immediately for stack-depth — 77xx on J75cc for 3k flop jam (Hand 2), 99xx leading then jamming Jx9c7c (Hand 14), KK76ss check-potting J87ss for full stack (Hand 9). When he raises or pots flop, he has a flopped set or top-pair+front-door FD — almost never a bare bluff or naked draw.

Exploitability: 7/10 · Pool tag: FISH. Stacks off light with set-or-strong-pair-plus-FD on wet boards and never slows down; predictable on the "I have it" line, but the range still includes overpair+FD pressure (Hand 9) — strong-but-not-always-nutted, not pure nut-peddling.

Quick reference
  • If he check-pots wet two-tone flop → fold one-pair-no-redraw, call/jam only with set+ or wrap+FD.High
  • If he donk-pots paired/connected flop → he has set or top trips, fold non-nut draws.Med
  • If he flat-calls 3-bet OOP → set-mining range, barrel small on dry Axx/Kxx.Med
  • If he just calls flop+turn and declines river → capped at two-pair, value-bet thin.Med
  • If he opens and folds to a 3-bet flop raise → folds to pressure on K-high dry (Hand 6).Low

What we still don't know: river bluff frequency, 4-bet pre range, response to flop check-raise OOP, behavior 100bb+ deep against unknown opens. Each of those slots fills in with one or two more sessions of evidence — and the confidence map updates with it.

Synthesis quality

We grade our own reads.
Changes have to earn trust.

Most poker tools eyeball their generated output. PokerReads runs read changes through private poker-correctness checks and frozen champion comparisons before they can move toward production. Cross-model judging and held-out prediction are part of the v1.0.18 promotion path, not a public claim about today's engine.

01 · Deterministic checks

Poker correctness before polish

Variant preservation, PLO exact-card discipline, sample-size overclaiming, and citation safety are checked before read changes move forward.

02 · Frozen champion

New prompts have to beat production

Internal challengers compare against the shipped engine. If a challenger sounds sharper but breaks evidence discipline, it stays blocked.

03 · Human approval

The engine room is fail-closed

Internal challengers can recommend new prompts. None gets promoted to production without deterministic gates clean, rollback ready, and explicit human approval.

Your reads are your edge. Nobody else sees them.

Your notes, hands, and bankroll data are private to your account. Not other users, not the PokerReads team, not the founder. Group sharing is opt-in and explicit. We will never sell, mine, or monetize your data.

PBT shows what happened. PokerReads tells you why.

What we have that your bankroll tracker doesn't.

Every item here is shipped today. PBT has none of these. This is why the upgrade math works even though you'd be paying more.

In hardening (we ship when the real-user-data smoke is green, not on a calendar): plain text → standardized PokerStars-format HH (paste a phone-note hand, get exportable HH for GTO Wizard / Hand2Note / PT4 / HM3 / replayers — NLHE export already smoke-tested green in GTO Wizard Analyzer; PLO output legal PokerStars-format with pot-limit safety for PLO-capable importers); strict export anti-fabrication (b75 stays percentage-of-pot — when pot math is ambiguous, the converter returns a repair hint instead of inventing dollar amounts); Hourly Window Recommendation inside Bankroll Intelligence (start-time intelligence on your real session data); opponent-weighted hourly rate (split your $/h by who was at the table — only possible because we have the opponent layer); game-selection coach (paste a lineup, get a sit/pass recommendation from your saved reads); interactive hand replayer; full Pokerbase / Bink / Poler importer UI polish; first-class staking ledger. Permanent no: real-time HUD overlay (use PT4 / H2N for that — illegal on most regulated sites anyway), public API (your reads are private, not for third parties), GTO solver (use GTO Wizard — different problem). Honest scope, not promises.

FAQ

Common questions.

One private app that does bankroll tracking, opponent intelligence, hand-history synthesis, and behavioral analytics for serious live and online players. The bankroll side handles multi-account ledgers, multi-currency, rebuy edits with full audit trail, closed-form Risk of Ruin, stop-loss simulation, day-of-week / duration / mood / life-event analytics, and weekly review. The opponent side turns your group chats, screenshots, hand histories, and notes into source-backed reads on every player you face. Designed to replace your tracker, not sit on top of it.

Yes — and we'll bring your history with you. Open the Import Hub, choose Switch from Poker Bankroll Tracker, drop in your CSV export, and we'll bring across your sessions, locations, stakes, rebuys, and tags in one step. What you gain: a real opponent-notes layer (PBT has none), full PT4 / Hand2Note / HM3 hand-history ingestion (PBT FAQ explicitly says they can't support those — "database too huge for mobile"), behavioral analytics PBT doesn't have (mood correlation, session-length decay, stop-loss simulation, life-event segmentation, rolling-window trend), and edit history with one-tap Undo on rebuy corrections. What's still on the v1.0.20 roadmap: an interactive hand replayer (we parse hands today but the visual replay UI ships next week). Variance: we compute closed-form Risk of Ruin on your actual session data — the same number PBT's "stacks needed for 5% RoR" is solving for, without the simulation step. If you live in PBT's hand replayer, give us a week. If you live in PBT's bankroll math, switch today.

Yes. The sample report is a real, anonymized opponent profile pulled directly from production output — same engine, same structure, same confidence map. You can also click through a shared scout-report example to see what a friend would receive if you Share a Read. No account required for either.

From any opponent in your player pool, tap Share. PokerReads creates a scrubbed, time-limited snapshot of the read with personal context stripped and the actionable summary kept whole. Send the link to a friend who's about to play that opponent — they get the read, plus 30 days of Pro free if they sign up. You get referral credit. Old links expire so private edge data doesn't live forever.

Paste anything. PokerReads auto-detects the source and routes it to the right parser. WhatsApp and Telegram group chats. Hand2Note hand exports. Google Docs, Markdown, or plain-text notes. Recap, broadcast, and table screenshots. CSV session logs. Online poker integrations are expanding — ClubWPT Gold and Pokerrrr2 screenshots are supported via the screenshot parser today, with deeper integrations rolling out as users push for them. If you have a source that doesn't fit, email support and we'll help you get the first import live.

Every Sunday: net result and hourly rate, four-week trend, biggest swing, your best game and biggest leak, account drift across your real-money buckets, and a short recommended plan for next week. It reads like a one-page memo — opinionated, ranked, never a dashboard you have to interpret. It's designed to be the only post-session screen you actually open on a Sunday night.

Only you, by default. Your opponent reads, hand histories, session data, and bankroll information are private to your account and encrypted in transit. Not other users, not the PokerReads team, not the founder. If you turn on Pro group sharing, it's opt-in and explicit: you choose what to share, with whom, and you can revoke access at any time. Shared scout links are scrubbed snapshots and time-limited. We don't sell, mine, or monetize your data — your edge is yours.

PBT is bankroll-only — they explicitly don't import PT4 or Hand2Note hand histories. PokerTracker and Hand2Note are HUD-and-replayer tools tied to online clients. PokerReads is the only tool that does both: bankroll math at PBT depth (multi-account, multi-currency, RoR, stop-loss sim, edit-trail with Undo, day-of-week / mood / decay / life-event analytics — most of which PBT doesn't even have) AND opponent intelligence built from your full PT4 / H2N / HM3 history plus your chats, screenshots, and freeform notes. The pitch: one private app instead of three subscriptions, with the synthesis layer no tracker has — turning nine years of orphaned hand histories into reads on every villain you've played.

PokerReads is a personal note-taking, study, and reflection tool. It does not interact with poker clients, watch the table state for you, or recommend actions while a hand is unfolding. Use scouting and Operating Brief features for pre-session prep and post-session review. Always follow your cardroom's or site's specific terms of service on device use.
