I know its a hypothetical question, but in your best guess would it be worh me getting now just to use on Merge, or should I wait till regulation and see what happens.
Thanks in advance guys.

My understanding is that none of the proposed legislation made any specifications about tracking software. I believe their intent with not mentioning it in the legislation was to leave it up to the individual sites/networks has it has always been.

Disclaimer: I have not been following the legislation forum closely so I am not sure if there is new proposed legislation that makes my quote above inaccurate.

I am interested in hiring a custom program/script to be made. Is there a thread or area where this gets done in software?

just make a "request:" thread describing what you want created, how much you're willing to pay perhaps. they usually get responses quickly

My HEM has stopped importing hands, under the import progress it says its importing files but no hands, any idea why??

Stars? HH files are a bit borked today, maybe that's the problem

I think we got this sorted in the hm support thread a few minutes ago.

Supposedly the HH's glitch only affects the new NL16 tables, and stars is working on a fix.

I play on Lock Poker on OSX. I used to use blazing-stars on pokerstars. Does anybody know anything like that for Merge / Lock ?

[_dave_]

There is MergeKeys, but it's for AHK script Windows not OSX

[pokper3]

ok. I found something called QuickKeys that gives me a free 30 day trial and it works pretty well. But after 30 days I'm gonna have to look for something else. if anyone knows anything for merge for mac let me know please.

is there any software about that can waitlist tables for me on stars based on the player at the table having a certain coloured note? (ie it just waitlists me at any table where i have a player marked "yellow")

[xander biscuits]

total newbie question and I've looked around and can't find the answer (Main problem being I don't know what words to search for)

How do I get the player stats to appear on the table like they are in this one?

much thanks

Being WizardOfAhhs, it's very likely that is Holdem Manager 2 he's using for the stats on table (often called HUD, that's what to search for).

Alternatives are PokerTracker, and FPDB, probably some other smaller programs too.

[xander biscuits]

I've got HEM1 (downloaded yesterday) but I can't figure out how to get the stats on the table.

I've looked through all the tabs and can't find anything obvious that does it. Is there something I'm missing or do I need HEM2 to be able to do this?

Or a link to a thread that explains how to do this would be appreciated
