    Thinking of finally getting a HUD, I am purely an MTT player and think perhaps the HUD will make some decisions easier when multitabling.

    The question is which of the HUDs I listed would be most useful for an MTT player?

    HEM

    I've tried all three, didn't like PT - it wasn't near as user friendly as HEM. I used Tournament Indicator for a while and its not bad but its very limited - its main advantage was that it displayed your M the whole time, but only a handful of stats. You can have HEM show your M in the HUD so I guess that makes TI redundant.

    HEM if I were you.

    edit: HEM also has an excellent support forum

    How many people on here use a HUD?

    I am on the trial version of pokertracker 3 and like it alot. I am thinking about spending the $90 to register but am not sure yet.

    Are there any stats outside of VPIP, PreRaise, and Agg that are useful? How do you use them if so?

    I am also interested to hear from members who no do use a HUD. I'd like to know about how many of my fellow players at the $10 tables are using these.

    I have PT and HEM and HEM is much user friendlier. I still use PT3 for tournys and HEM for cash games... I might switch to HEM though, I'm just too lazy because my HUD for tournys is good and already set up for tournys on PT3. I'd go with HEM tho if i were you

    I only play tournaments, is the only advantage of HEM that it displays 'M'?

    it's also much easier for reviewing and user friendly. though with poker tracker and tournaments I never used PT to review or look up my stats, only the HUD, so it wasn't a big issue for me.
