CESolver

A high-performance postflop poker solver with faster convergence, lower memory usage, and ultra-compact storage. Built for serious players and researchers.

Starting at $5.83/mo ($70/year)  or  $8.99/mo

Built for Performance

CESolver is engineered from the ground up for speed, efficiency, and seamless integration with your existing workflow.

Universal Poker Interface (UPI)

Robust, standardized interface for communicating with the solver. Script, automate, and integrate with any tool that speaks UPI.

PioSolver2 Plug-in Compatible

Drop-in compatible with PioSolver2 scripting solutions. Swap your solver engine without rewriting your scripts or workflows.

Ultra-Low MAE

Achieves ultra-low mean absolute error (MAE) versus PioSolver2 at flop nodes using the 3betpotFAST configuration. Near-identical solutions, faster.

Ultra-Compact Storage (Beta)

Full save of 3betpotFAST: 169 MB in CESolver vs 685 MB in PioSolver2. Store 4x more solutions on the same disk.

No Hardware Restrictions

No limits on CPU cores or memory. Use every thread and every byte of RAM your machine has to maximize solving speed.

2 Machines, Transferable

Each license activates on up to 2 machines. Licenses are fully transferable — deactivate one machine and activate another anytime.

75%

Smaller save files on 3betpotFAST (169 MB vs 685 MB)

Convergence Benchmarks

Solving to 0.01% of the initial pot on board QsJh2h using 3betpotFAST. CESolver reaches equivalent exploitability in ~34 seconds where PioSolver2 requires ~82 seconds — a 2.4x speedup.

Exploitability vs Time (seconds)

CESolver's algorithm can produce brief oscillations during convergence (visible as the spike around ~7s) but recovers quickly and ultimately converges faster. At 7 seconds, exploitability spikes from 0.27 to 1.10 before dropping back to 0.29 within 2 seconds — a trade-off that yields significantly faster overall convergence.

Under the Hood

Side-by-side solution comparison and CPU utilization during solve. CESolver is optimized for memory locality and AVX2 instruction sets, yielding ~10% better CPU utilization across all threads.

Solution Comparison

Side-by-side strategy output: CESolver (left) vs PioSolver2 (right). Near-identical frequencies across all actions at flop nodes.

CESolver CPU utilization

CESolver CPU Usage

Optimized for memory locality and AVX2 instruction sets, delivering ~10% better CPU utilization on our AMD Ryzen 9 5950X (16-core / 32-thread). Tighter memory access patterns keep all cores fed.

PioSolver2 CPU utilization

PioSolver2 CPU Usage

PioSolver2 on the same AMD Ryzen 9 5950X (16-core / 32-thread). More idle gaps visible across threads due to less optimized memory access patterns.

Resource Efficiency

CESolver uses significantly less memory and disk space than PioSolver2 on the same 3betpotFAST configuration.

Built-in Strategy Browser

Navigate strategy and equity directly in the terminal — no external viewer needed. CESolver includes a full TUI for browsing solved game trees.

TUI strategy frequencies

Strategy Frequencies

Color-coded hand grid showing bet/check frequencies with range breakdown and hand category stats.

TUI alternate strategy views at node

Alternate Strategy Views at Node

Toggle between strategy frequencies and equity views at any node to analyze from multiple angles.

TUI OOP & IP perspectives

OOP & IP Perspectives

Switch between OOP and IP perspectives instantly to see both sides of the strategy.

TUI card selector for runouts

Interactive Card Selector

Pick turn and river cards to navigate runouts. Keyboard-driven for fast exploration.

TUI multi-street navigation

Multi-Street Navigation

Drill into any line — bet, call, check — and explore strategy across all streets from flop to river.

Beta - Known Limitations

  • Requires Windows OS and a CPU with AVX2 instruction set.
  • CESolver is in beta. ICM tables are not yet supported. Core solving, node locking, file saving, and most other PioSolver2 functions are supported.
  • Integration with our AI chat and coaching services is in progress.
  • Ultra-compact storage format is in beta and subject to format changes.
  • Usage of CESolver with PioViewer requires a valid PioSolver2 license. Please consult piosolver.com terms and conditions for details.
