PLO Genius – Update Summary for January 2026

New year, new us?

Not exactly — but the final weeks of 2025 and the first month of 2026 have definitely been busy on our end.

PLO Genius has always been about giving you accurate, practical tools for real-world PLO decisions. Over the last few weeks, we’ve taken a big step forward in that direction.

You can now not only work with both preflop and postflop solvers, but also import your own hands, review them inside the trainer, and use the equity calculator to visualize your equity at any point in the hand.

On top of that, we’ve added a large batch of new simulations across multiple formats — from deep-stacked cash games to short-stack and AoF scenarios — while continuing to improve performance, usability, and overall workflow.

Below is a quick overview of everything that’s changed in PLO Genius over the last few weeks 👇
