HUD (Heads-Up Display)
A software overlay that displays real-time statistics about your opponents directly on the poker table. HUDs aggregate data from hand histories to show metrics like VPIP, PFR, aggression factor, and more. HUDs are essential tools for serious online poker players, helping identify opponent tendencies and make better decisions.
Example
During an online session, your HUD overlay shows that the player in seat 3 has a VPIP of 62% and a PFR of 8% — a classic loose-passive fish you should value-bet relentlessly.
