# PokerStars Restrictions
# Is Hand2Note allowed on PokerStars?
Yes, Hand2Note is present in the list of allowed tools on PokerStars.
# What I am NOT ALLOWED to do on PokerStars?
The following Hand2Note features are not available live at the tables on PokerStars:
- Positional and Dynamic HUD.
- Preflop and postflop diagrams (they'll be replaced by a list of hand categories).
- Stats based on player's known pocket cards.
- Auto color markers on players showing either player is a fish or a reg.
- Badges.
These rules are applied only in HUD over PokerStars tables and popups which are opened directly by clicking on HUD. In all other cases Hand2Note provides full functionality.
What should I do to avoid occasional PokerStars rules violation?
Hand2Note enables all restrictions automatically. You don't need to worry about that.
# What I am ALLOWED to do on PokerStars?
The following features are available while playing live on PokerStars:
- Static HUD (You can use HUD with hokeys as an alternative to positional HUD).
- Manual set color marker on a player.
- Automatically hide HUD if player folded in a hand.
- Automatically switch HUD based on players count in the hand. This is useful for Sit&Go players, especially switching HUD form 3-max to HU.
- Bet sizing separation of a stat's value.
- The list of hands with showdowns for each stat.
- Using postflop and preflop diagrams which are not opened directly from HUD at the table. For example, you may open such a popup using player's search in the main window of Hand2Note and all diagrams will be available there.
Even with the restrictions, Hand2Note still provides decent set of advanced functions to use on PokerStars. And you can always analyze your game outside the tables using full functionality of the software.
