A Functional Texas Hold'em Poker Odds Calculator

pokerc

Functional Texas Hold'em Poker Odds Calculator.

The goal of this project is to learn Haskell and develop a solid cross-platform alternative to PokerStove.

What works:

• Finding out combinations.
• Determination of the winner
• Monte-Carlo computation of P(win).
• Basic commandline interface

To-to:

• Add kickers to FourOfAKind and ThreeOfAKind datatypes.
• Commandline user interface
  • Ranges for opponents
• Clean up code
• Optimize computations

Install

Compile:

Usage examples

pokerc computes your probability of winning by simulating many random games with the same constraints (specified by commandline options).

See all available options with:

pokerc --help

At least, you need to specify the number of opponents and your cards.

For example, you have Ace Spades and Ace Diamonds and you are playing pre-flop against 5 opponents (6 players total):

pokerc 6 AsAd

You are playing the same game after seeing flop (2d Kh Ks) and no one folded:

pokerc 6 AsAd --board 2dKhKs

One opponent folded, you see Kd on the turn: pokerc 5 AsAd --board 2dKhKsKd

River is Kc, 3 more opponents folded: pokerc 2 AsAd --board 2dKhKsKd
