Hi pimient0,
I didn't even know about TableScan Turbo until you mentioned it, so I looked it up.

TableScan Turbo appears on the PokerStars list of software "Prohibited at all times"
Go to https://www.pokerstars.com/poker/room/prohibited/ and search for TableScan Turbo.

You might also want to use you favourite search engine to look for "Table Scan Turbo alternatives"

Best of luck,
VS

About a year ago I used TST and there was no problem. They had to change it! Do you know any program that shows Pot Odds in the game?

Quite a few other programs that were once OK are now banned.
This even includes software that only shows charts.

I suggest you search for "display pot odds" using any popular search engine.
It returned a number of hits but I have no way to recommend one, since I don't use any.

All poker rooms I play at show the pot size, and when it is your turn to call, it shows the amount you need to call.
It is therefore simple to calculate pot odds:
Odds = Pot/Bet

That is only half the battle though -- you also need to know the odds of hitting your draw.
For that, I suggest:

All the best,

I know how to calculate Pot Odds, I need this as a multitabling add-on. But thanks for answer!

If you read the prohibited software link I posted earlier, you may find that all such on-screen odds display tools are no longer permitted.
Specifically, this paragraph:

There are some tools and services which have legitimate uses for analysing your game, but are not appropriate for use during play. As such, their use when any of our clients, apps or software are open is prohibited.

Typically, these fall under the following categories:

:diamond:  Reference material that provides advice that goes beyond a basic level, such as a large collection of tables offering recommendations beyond whether to play certain hands or not in unopened pots.
:diamond:  Tools or services designed specifically to ease referral to reference material.
:diamond:  Tools or services that compute advanced equity calculations, such as range vs range simulators, ICM or Nash Equilibrium-based programs.

If you do find such a tool, I suggest asking the support team of your favourite poker site beforehand to ensure you won't lose your bankroll by using it.

All the best,
