TableNinja Review

"TableNinja allows you to have a far greater win rate/turnover time"

TableNinja is a great little add-on for people wanting to make multi tabling on Pokerstars a much more pleasurable experience; it’s a third party tool that allows you to assign hotkeys to certain actions that you make on the table in order to speed them up.

The program offers a 30 day free trial with full functionality so you can try the features out for yourself. Immediately after you install TableNinja you can see they didn’t spend too much time on the interface, however this really isn’t too much of a problem when you consider that the program is used mainly for its functionality.

TableNinja lets you automate a number of actions including managing your lobby, betting/folding/calling/checking, registering for tournaments, controlling your bet size with the mouse wheel and betting customizable percentages of the pot.

You’re going to need to have quite a bit of practice with TableNinja before it becomes a help rather than a hindrance. This is because there is no cheat sheet where you can review your hotkeys quickly. The only way you can do this is going back into the program and finding the action you assigned. This is fine if you’re playing one table but when you start hitting 15+ tables it’s definitely going to be a problem.

Don’t get us wrong, once you adapt to the program you become much more efficient. TableNinja allows you to have a far greater win rate/turnover time than if you weren’t using it. However, at first I would experiment with just a few tables rather than diving straight in to it.

In a nutshell, TableNinja is a very useful tool, the action and pot betting hotkeys are brilliant and you will find they help you with your easy multi table decisions to no end. With the $35 dollar price point that comes with one year’s free upgrade this tool is well worth it.

While TableNinja only works with PokerStars, the developers are currently working on TableNinjaFT which will work on Full Tilt and is expected to be released in late August.
