The "analyze game" on Wong VP dealt a limited number of random hands (no
more than 32,768) and averaged the EV of those hands. It excluded royals
and added the appropriate value separately. VPEXACT worked similar to the
analyze game feature in Winpoker and Frugal VP. It displayed hand
frequencies and percent of payback for each hand type including separated
results for the various four of a kinds. It could also calculate using
different paybacks for various three of a kinds. It could not handle
kickers and bonus deuces type games. Also no two or more joker games.

Gee,I don't remember having to get that VP EXACT to analyze a game. I
do remember taking a few hours to get answer. My software was a "Villa
Crespo" software and was at least sold by Wong. I still had game on an
old Packard Bell that died a few months ago. I am just wondering now if
my software was Wongs? I really liked the way it played. The sound was
different but I liked sound. There was even a tournament mode if I
remember right.Cheers...Jeep
