Players at high volume or / and the players that make the purchase of hand histories should see a good difference from HM1, since the maize should be imported two to three times faster: HM2 WINS therefore hands vs. HM1 at this level!
A revised and improved HUD
The HUD has also been improved, both at the level of aesthetics to the level of functionality.
First, some pre-configurations will be provided with HM2 (HM1 offered only a single default configuration); also, it will be possible the statistics "versus hero", which allow to see how your opponents play specifically against you.
