Why use spreadsheets?

Bit old-school aren't they? Well, yeah, but they're simple and effective. You don't see knives going out of fashion.

• The boxes are perfect for organizing numbers and laying out calculations in an easy to read format. This helps you to 'see' the calculations in your head.
• The charts are marvelous for visualizing the results of your calculations. This helps you to 'see' the results and the effects of inputs/actions.

Spreadsheets are magic for analyzing statistical things, and poker is one of those statistical things. If you can work with spreadsheets, you have a powerful tool at your disposal for analyzing ideas. Just as a gladiator would benefit from a sexy new weapon, a poker player benefits from Excel.

But what exactly can you do with spreadsheets? Honestly, play with them and see for yourself. EV equations would be a good place to start. Then try some pot odds and other mathematical stuff.

And when you get the hang of it, you'll be thankful you acquired the skill. Excel isn't just for lame databases. It's actually an awesome tool that will develop your skill of decision analysis. And winning the most money from poker is simply a case of making the best possible decisions at every opportunity.

The next time you want to work something out using numbers, try doing it in Excel (or whatever spreadsheet app you prefer).
