I believe everybody is aware that google exists and that there is a search function in this forum...

I've discussed why I think it's appropriate to post answers like that before.

Cool, thx

a) It is sometimes humorous, b) Cuz we can, c) Sarcasm is difficult to discern over the web.

I call it "Education thru Sarcasm"

I beg to differ, and I can prove it - daily.

fwiw - I was a Google-Tard when I started here, and often asked ?'s of the same type I flame people for now. It's how I learned, and how I shall teach.

Is it better to not answer at all, and Lurk in the Shadows like many (you?) - never giving back to the community at all? Sure, we do it with some sarcasm a lot of the time, but it's better than not doing anything, imo. We offer them a solution to their quandry.

Give a man a fish, he eat's for a day. Teach a man how to catch his own fish....

I don't think this forum is really about cheating and going against the TOS - I could be wrong.

Also, I think it is much more productive to get Poker Tracker to add the functionality then trying to get PS to change their policy.

My point was not this specific answer but more their answers in general. Just wanted to point it out once. This is not the thread for a lengthy discussion about this.

I think you are correct.

the Stars TOS have unfortunately now become very confusing since it is unclear what constituted "incidental" datamining

I am not going to cheat. Right now I am putting my hope in Poker Ace and his discussions with Stars to see if he can add some of that functionality to PT3.

And praying that it happens. Because I definitely see that as a huge advantage.

Seems the latest stars update has broken this script.

looking to buy nl100+ databases on stars!
02-14-2008 , 01:02 PM
Yes, the latest PokerStars software update has made the actual importing of saved observed hands not work. The observed hands are still being captured and stored, but will not import into PokerStars.

Ideas? Suggestions to fix?

Thanks.

Really? I grabbed a few hands 2 days ago, but the script wouldn't work on either of my computers after the latest Stars update. It just seems to pgdn to the last hand and not copy the HHs.

Hmmmm .... I had been using the 'Timer' feature, but that did not seem to work. The manual, 'Single Grab' feature is what is working for me, currently.


Thanks.

Not once HEM and PT3 add the same functionality in, seeing as Stars allows it for PO.

Use the Pokertars.exe and not the PokerstarsUpdate.exe.
You should do this anyway if you use any cardmod,chipmod.. etc.

Would you PM me that?

I'm interested of a new version of this script that works with the new update of PokerStars...

Just in case anybody missed it, PokerStars has finally made a post about the real-time ICM NE applications and in the same thread PokerStarsJeff also posted about using PO to data-mine (see here).

02-15-2008 , 05:00 PM
ok it seems clear that it is the end of this script
02-16-2008 , 04:55 AM
Not if you have an older version of stars. Maybe I should do something nice for this thread and upload it????

I'll let dave decide b/c you all know how much he loves people who mine PokerStars.

Whatttttaya say dave, you want me to upload it?
02-16-2008 , 04:57 AM
