Google on "Poker source". There's also a big thread in this forum that had very fast code (c or c++) on how to evaluate a poker hand.

Hey NSight,

the following link can be found through the University of Alberta GAMES Group website: http://spaz.ca/poker/

This is actually where I'm going to do my Master's in Computer Science next year. I'm pretty pumped (the bots used in Poker Academy were developed at UofA and are amongst the best in the world).

Under the Hand Evaluator section, there are links to both c and java code.

Thanks guys! Now I have plenty of resources to get going. Good luck with that Master's in Comp Science buddy!
