Converting hands:

Please use the following options for converting hands:

Preferred by most:
http://www.handconverter.com/

Set to "Two Plus Two Forums" output, "Use player names" and "Show results". You can convert multiple hand histories at once, but please try to separate them once pasted into your reply, for ease of reading, e.g type a between hands.

How to capture hand histories:

On the Stars table click the "previous hand" link on the top left, which brings up the hand history box. Click the hand you want to post, Ctrl+A to select, Ctrl+C to copy. Bring up the converter tab in your browser, Ctrl+A/Ctrl+V on the left hand box to paste the new hh. Click the "Convert" button. Ctrl+A/Ctrl+C on the right hand box to copy the converted hand, Ctrl+V into the quick reply box on here.

We generally post ~200bb+ pots, but if there's an interesting hand/showdown, or if there's not much action feel free to post smaller ones.

If that converter is down (happens occasionally):
http://www.pokerconverter.com/

Set to "Show all names", "2+2 Forums" output and tick "Show results". You need to reset this converter after every hand.


Posting screenshots:

Hyperdesktop is a fantastic app for capturing screenshots and auto-uploading them. It gives you the link to post here, no need to even visit the hosting site.

In. Kanu7 was strongly rumoured to be Alexander Millar, but I'll hold off from putting him in until it's confirmed.

It is him - he posts here so he can probably confirm it himself http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/members/97365/ but I think you can put that one in there.
