Everything under
the hood.

IkaSolver delivers over 10 million combo-hand iterations per second. Complex 6-player preflop trees that take hours in other solvers can be solved in minutes.

Yes. The solver automatically detects and uses every available core on your machine. More cores means faster solving - performance scales proportionally.

Significantly less than competing solvers. IkaSolver shows you exactly how much memory a solve will need before you start, so you'll never run out mid-solve.

Yes. The longer you let the solver run, the more precise the strategy becomes. A built-in accuracy indicator tells you when the solution has converged enough to be reliable. You can also set a target accuracy level and the solver will stop automatically when it's reached.

Yes. The batch solve feature lets you queue up multiple flop boards and solve them all in sequence. You can choose from all 1,755 strategically unique flops, or pick a custom subset. The solver shows live progress as it works through the queue.

Everything you'd find at a real table: number of players (2 to 9), stack sizes per position, small blind, big blind, ante, dead money, and rake (with optional cap). You can also start from any street - preflop, flop, turn, or river - with a custom starting pot and board cards.

You have full control over every raise size. Set position-specific open raises (e.g. BTN opens 2.5x, SB opens 3.2x), custom 3-bet sizes for each position matchup, and separate in-position / out-of-position sizes for 4-bets, 5-bets, and 6-bets. You can also configure iso-raise sizes against limpers.

Postflop bets are configured using stack-to-pot ratio (SPR) tiers. For example, when the SPR is below 3, you might want a small 33% pot bet. When the SPR is higher, you might prefer a full pot-sized bet. You can set separate sizing rules for the flop, turn, and river, and control when all-in is offered as an option.

Three formats: multiplier (e.g. '2.5x' the previous bet), percentage of pot (e.g. '75%'), or all-in ('A'). You can combine multiple sizes at the same decision point, like '50%, 75%, A' to give the solver three choices. There's also a '+' modifier for adjusting sizes based on the number of callers.

Yes. You can set the maximum number of limpers allowed, control whether players can cold-call into a 3-bet, enable or disable back-raises, and toggle donk bets (betting into the previous street's aggressor). You can also set pot-limit mode to cap all raises at the pot size.

An optional feature that automatically finds the single best raise size at each decision point. Instead of solving with multiple sizes and picking the best one manually, the optimiser tests each option and keeps only the one that matters most. This gives you a cleaner, simpler strategy.

Yes. Save your tree configurations as presets and load them later. You can also export trees to share with others or import trees from external sources.

Solved strategies can be exported in IKS format (IkaSolver's native format that preserves the full solution), JSON for analysis in other tools, or PIO-compatible format for use with PioSolver-based workflows.

For every starting hand (like AK, pocket queens, or 7-2 offsuit), you see: how often it should take each action, and the expected profit or loss from playing it. This helps you understand which hands are strong in each spot.

Yes. Click on any player at the table to see their range - which hands they should have in this spot and how those hands are distributed across actions.

Yes. While the solver is running, the hand frequencies update live every couple of seconds. You can watch the strategy take shape as it becomes more accurate.

Yes. Use the filter to search for hands like 'AK', 'pocket pairs', or 'suited connectors'. You can also sort by how often a hand takes a certain action, or by its expected value.

Yes. On postflop boards, you can filter hands by made-hand strength (top pair, overpair, two pair, sets, flushes, etc.) and by draw type (flush draw, open-ended straight draw, gutshot). This makes it easy to see how the solver plays different categories of hands.

Yes. IkaSolver computes common poker HUD stats for each position - including VPIP (how often a player enters the pot), PFR (pre-flop raise rate), 3-bet frequency, c-bet rate, and more. These are colour-coded to highlight how each position differs from average.

Grey means fold, green means call, gold/yellow means raise, and red means all-in. The width of each colour shows how often that action should be taken. A fully green cell means you should always call; a mix of colours means you should sometimes take different actions.

Yes. Click any cell to see the full breakdown - the exact frequencies for each action, the expected value, and (for postflop) the breakdown by specific card combinations.

Yes. The interactive poker table shows player positions, chip stacks, bets, and the pot. Click any player to see their range. It's a visual way to understand what's happening at each point in the game.

You choose which hands to lock to specific actions (e.g. always fold 7-2 offsuit, always raise pocket aces). The solver shows you the expected value before and after the change, so you can see exactly how much the simplification costs.

Yes. The range lock editor lets you lock entire hand classes (like all pocket pairs), specific hands, or even individual suit combos. You can use standard range notation or click hands on a visual grid.

Yes. For every change, IkaSolver shows the before and after expected value for each player and the total pot EV loss as a percentage. This makes it easy to see whether a simplification is worth the trade-off.

Every decision you make is compared against the solver's optimal strategy and rated: Best (perfect play), Correct (good alternative), Inaccuracy (slightly off), Mistake (noticeable error), or Blunder (big mistake). You'll get a colour-coded result after each action.

Yes. Choose any position - Button, Small Blind, Big Blind, or any other seat. The trainer deals you realistic hands for that position and sets up opponents accordingly.

Yes. Every hand is saved in a sidebar history. Click any past hand to replay it and see what the solver recommended at each decision point compared to what you chose.

Yes. Each result plays a different sound - a pleasant tone for correct plays, a warning sound for mistakes. You can mute this if you prefer visual-only feedback.

Yes. Instant mode skips the delay between hands so you can rapid-fire through decisions. There's also a timed mode that adds a countdown clock for each decision, simulating real-time pressure.

Yes. Use the hand filter to focus on specific ranges - like 'AK+', 'pocket pairs 77-99', or 'suited connectors'. This lets you drill the spots you find most difficult.

Everything: how many sessions you've played, total hands, total decisions, your best streak, how much expected value you've lost, and accuracy percentages broken down by street and position.

The trainer looks at your accuracy across different streets and positions, and highlights the areas where you're making the most mistakes. For example, it might tell you 'Weakest on preflop: 41% accuracy' or 'Weakest as BTN: 64% accuracy'.

Yes. All your training history is saved automatically. When you come back, your complete stats and hand history are still there.

Squid mode is a progressive format where players can win multiple markers, and even get rewarded for hitting different multiplier levels. In Stand-Up mode, markers can only be won once per player. In Squid the can end when all markers are won, or one player remains without a marker. In Standup the game ends when one player remains without a marker.

The solver calculates a 'Win Impact' table that shows how many big blinds each player gains or loses from the bounty system when any given player wins the pot. This is on top of the normal pot equity - it's the extra value from knocking someone out.

Yes. Configure how many markers a player needs to reach each multiplier level. For example: 3 markers = 2x bounty, 5 markers = 3x, 7 markers = 4x. The solver accounts for all of this when computing optimal strategies.

Yes, we also offer a standard holdem server that contains all the same optimisations as our Squid and Standup solver.

You start the solver on a remote server (any Linux machine), then connect to it from the desktop app on your computer. The connection is live - you see results updating in real-time, just as if the solver was running locally.

The server keeps solving. When you reconnect, everything syncs up automatically - no progress is lost. You can even close your laptop, open it later, and continue right where you left off.

Yes. You can solve on your own machine for quick experiments, and switch to a remote server when you need more power. The experience is identical either way.

Any Linux server works. The more CPU cores and RAM it has, the faster it solves and the larger the trees it can handle. The app tells you exactly how much memory you'll need before you start.
