Cake Poker announced last week that it will officially begin permitting HUDS such as Poker Tracker and Hold’em Manager.  HUDs stands for Heads-Up-Display, which is a third party software that permits data to be displayed right on the poker table.  

HUDS provide better insight into an opponent’s behavior/play, allowing for better decision making and potential increase in profit.



"From November 9 we allow players to use 3rd party software that provide HUD data such as Poker Tracker and Hold`em Manager," said Anton Zhilin, senior affiliate and project manager at AEPoker.

"Players can still change their nicknames every 7 days to combat any form of tracking if they wish."



Cake Poker had previously opposed the use of HUDs.
