Beta 3.07 supports Merge. http://www.pokertracker.com/forums/v...=28389#p137299

hello guys and girls,

i am currently a HEM user but i wanted to give PT3 a try cause i just heard good things about it.

so my question...i still have HEM with postgres installed and i downloaded the PT3 trial wanted to configure postgressql server but get this error-message: unable to connect to this database. please check the configuration


so what is wrong here?


thanks in advance!

You will need to use the password that your postgres user is configured for, which would probably have been set up by HEM.
If you don't know what that is you can remove the need for PostgreSQL passwords: How To: Remove PostgreSQL Password.

ok thx so far gonna try it.

Sorry for being a donk, but is pt4 in the pipelines yet?

No, not yet.

Thanks. Pt3 has been out for a while, I'm surprised they haven't brought a new one out especially considering most top players seem to prefer hem.

Please note that this version will need to update your database. It may take a long time depending on the size of your databases and the speed of your computer. Plan your update accordingly.


The major changes in this release are for the tournament players. This beta release introduces PokerTracker 3's Smart Tournament Detection. What this feature does, in a nutshell, is that it will analyze your tournaments and automatically determine what kind of tournament it is, what the buy-in is and what your winnings are for the tournament. In addition to the automatic detection, we've also greatly expanded how tournaments are classified in PokerTracker. No longer are you restricted to a small number of descriptions for your tournaments. Any number of flags and descriptors are available and can be used to classify your tournaments in great detail.

Please read the release announcements on our forums to see a complete writeup on the new smart tournament detection.

While this is a very welcome change and a long time in coming, users that have been customizing their table types for tournament classification should be aware that once you update the software and upgrade your database your customized table types will vaporize and any tournaments you had classified with customized table types will be reclassified with PokerTracker's default table types.

I found this out the hard way.

i play limit holdem, plo and no limit holdem vs the same opponents sometimes. is there a possibility to display only the stats from the game type i am currently playing in the hud?

You can enable the 'stats from current limit only' option, but there isn't yet an option for all limits from the same game type (this request is on the list for consideration by the development team).

Do you play them all at the same time? (I.e. do you play one table of limit and one table of NL and one table of PLO?) Seems like it'd be a recipe for disaster, IMO. If you don't, I'd just parse your current DB into 3 seperate ones and make active whichever one is correct for the game you're playing that day/session. It's going to be a PITA to switch back and forth depending on how frequently you change games, but might be an option to consider.

unfortunately i play them at the same time sometimes, also i dont want to filter by limits. but thanks for the tips anyways.

i just updated and after a session i noted that the results fo the tourneys were wrong. a lot of tourneys had final position, so no results.
ive tried to upload them manually as always but i got this error:

2010/07/23 01:32:54: Warning: Truncated summary data (Line #13)
2010/07/23 01:32:54: - Tournament summary imported.
2010/07/23 01:32:54: Warning: Truncated summary data (Line #32)
2010/07/23 01:32:54: - Tournament summary imported.
2010/07/23 01:32:54: Warning: Truncated summary data (Line #51)

even checking the option to overwrite It didint fixed.
I play double or nothing.

now i have lots of wrong results and its really stressing to do it manually to such a bunch of tourneys(80 just today)

Please attach a few example hand history and summary files to a Support ticket so that we can investigate. It sounds like the summaries are incomplete - do they look OK to you?
