I need some tips about my free h.o.r.s.e tool.

[greekhand]

Hi ,

I built some little h.o.r.s.e poker script (you can see some live example of it here on the bottom below the video : http://www.horsepokerguide.com/what-is-horse-poker ) .

This tool suppose to be shared by webmasters ! (for free). Until now I got only 1 webmaster that wanted to use it .

Why webmasters with poker related websites are not want to use this ?

Do you guys have any tips how can I make this tool better ?

Thanks alot .

* p.s - I give this tool free! All I want is a linkback .

[SunPoker.com]

I don't see any instructions on that page about how to integrate it into a site? How does a webmaster use that on their site?

I would provide some instructions and information about what people are looking at exactly and how it relates to your explaining of HORSE.

Probably because its buggy as hell.

ty Mark .... The webmaster will add the instructions , what the problem with that ? I think this better this way .

Also he can put this tool as part as h.o.r.s.e poker page or post (That the idea ) .

The webmaster only needs to add 1 line of HTML code .

Actually, I just realised that my pop up killer was the problem. Sorry! I turned it off and it works fine.

Some suggestions:

1 - Try and make it more compact. Why is there such a big gap between the hands and the radio buttons? One thing that I value as a webmaster is my space, which is limited.

2 - As part of the configuration, give me the option to modify the background so that *I* can choose somethign that fits wih my background. Chech out my poker odds calculator for an example. I was able to create my own image to use in the background, which allows me to include my URL on the poker table image. The only problem is I can't get rid of that white space around the table image. So make yours flexible enough so that people can adapt it to their templates.

3 - Add explanations. When a person chooses incorectly, tell them WHY they are wrong. When they choose correctly, also tell them WHY this is the correct answer.

4 - Add more scenarios. For example, under the hold'em tab, when you answer correctly, show your "correct" green checkmark, plus the explanation from my suggestion above, then give the option to load a new question. So you could have like 5 or 10 scenarios per game. Then it becomes a better learning tool because it can cover more areas.

5 - Another option is to provide a score. Present the tool as a poker quiz, with multiple questions per game. So when you answer wrong, it will give a zero points for that question, will show you the correct answer, and will give you the option to continnue with the next questions. At the end, you get your scores, broken down by game with a global total.

Great idea Greek... suggest you could add links to your articles along with the answers: How to figure out the low in Omaha 8 for example (especially if people get it wrong!)

Maybe even an interesting 'horse fact' on each question could work.... like "Did you know the biggest buy-in horse tournament each week is at poker site XYZ? Click Here to read more..." or something like that.

Cheers, Mark

Thanks for your time M.P.C :
1 ) I will add new smaller version
2 ) I tried to make it simpale as possiable . with minimum parameter .
3 ) I want the webmaster to do that .
4 ) I know , I already have few question for each game ... If webmaster will use my tool I will sure add more of these questions .
5 ) I was thinking about that too . Just felt that this is too much work for the fact that only 1 webmaster using this tool .

I will try to make some changes ... hope it actually make WM to use my tool .
