It shows, on the right side, which hands are possible and how often, with the range that was entered. Just click on villain's pie button (or Hero's) to see the "hand strength distribution and hand range reduction" window. Once "OK" is clicked after entering the 3 flop cards, a pie-looking icon will light up next to the "equity" box (it was previously greyed out), on the right side of the screen. To get to the "hand strength distribution" window, you first must input a hand/range for each of at least two players. After reading Harrington's online Cash Games book, I was going to make a spreadsheet to start calculating hand distributions and getting a sense of how certain ranges hit certain flops, but then I found that Equilab can do all of this in its "hand strength distribution" window. I hate to say it, but I think PokerStove just got retired. Trying to answer it helped me learn more about how to use Equilab myself, and also what questions I still had about it. I was looking for some tutorials on Equilab when I just happened to see his post, and The yellow and black circle that he mentions - click on the "spoiler" button in his original post to get a screenshot of what he's asking about. In my first post (just below the OP), I quoted the OP's questions and then attempted to answer what I could of them. What version are you using, and how do you get to the place where it shows the yellow and black circles? Nope - I'm using v1.2.8.0 (from Help | About) Maybe my version of Equilab is outdated - I'll check. I could not find a "hand strength distribution" function. I just opened it up to try to answer you questions, but I could not find a column labelled "frequency", nor a yellow or black circle. I'm glad you found Equilab - it is indeed a great tool. Hope this helps a little bit.Hi, toholdem I'm glad I happened across this post because now I'll be keeping a lookout on that number also, to see if I can find out what it means. "2) What does that number bottom right in black circle stand for?" - That number hmmmmmmmm. The top pair numbers and/or the three of a kind numbers don't add up to exactly %100, so, I'm not sure what they mean (I never payed any attention to them so far). The numbers in the yellow circle, but on the right side in parenthesis - it says they are "cumulated" but I don't know exactly what they mean yet. I still have alot of learning to do about using Equilab but that's what I understand of it so far (idk if it's correct yet). So, if villain starts betting all crazy at microstakes, he very well may have flopped a set, but chances are that he only has top pair and is over valuing it or wants to get you off of your hand. "1) In hand strength - three of a kind, top pair - what do those numbers in frequency column mean (yellow circle)? I'm thinking the first is a percentage of total range, but no idea about the second one." - the #'s on the left (13.8% / 38.5%) are the frequencies with which the shown range (66+,AJs+,AQo+) will make the hands of "three of a kind" and "top pair" respectively, against the shown flop (Ad9h7c). I'm still looking for more details on how to use Equilab (why I happened across this post), but after reading Harrington on Online Cash Games, I confirmed that Equilab calculates range distributions and gets the same results that he does, so I don't have to make a spreadsheet anymore (Thanks for giving us Equilab). I've just started trying to learn more about how to use Equilab to show me how a Villain's range hits a particular flop and the probabilities of him making certain hands (flush, straight, set, etc). Definitely take this reply with a grain of salt, and confirm the answer I give with another Equilab user before banking on it.
