Hi! I am trying to find a way to pass the cards of the various poker rooms clients (PartyPoker,PokerStars,cc) to my delphi application for various calculations. The poker rooms software are standalone exes and i only need to collect the value of my 2 hole cards plus the 5 community cards.

Any idea?

Have you tried peeking at what Windows API messages are flying around the poker apps?

You could also try and intercept the messages as they leave your
PC - ie add some sort of sniffer software on the right port.
