Hi punter,
I would like to report what I believe to be a bug.
In Tools>Configuration>Behavior there is an option to set "Default action after load tree" which I set mine to "Show strategy and ev"
This works perfectly fine when I open a solution(cfr file) from a folder but once it's open and I want to change to a different board I have saved in that folder either by clicking the "board" button or by ctrl+shift+O then the new board doesnt load up with strategy and ev displayed and I have to manually click for it on each new board I load up.
Not a huge deal but I would appreciate if you can make it load with strategies already shown each time I change the board.
fwiw it was behaving as it should in pio 1 and this bug was introduced in pio2.

BUG REPORT

Analysis>Runouts aggregated frequencies analysis over multiple files.

The output file handsEV.csv contains 4 separate tables. The first two named Preflop Hands OOP and Preflop Hands IP appear to be fine. However, the next two Hands EV OOP and Hands EV IP are tables with 5 columns each yet with only 4 column names. The 'Equity Realization' column appears to be there but is named Matchups while the 5th column name is blank.

From the file:

EDIT: This isn't a big deal, but my python code was throwing a bizarre error and I finally figured out this is what was causing it. For now, my code just corrects it if needed. Thanks for an awesome product!

Thanks for the response. For my database right now I just export aggregated reports in csv format and store them in a series of folders on my hard drive. Then it's easy to access them directly and pull them into a python dataframe for whatever statistical purpose I have at the moment.

But exporting to a database or csv would be unnecessary if I could just parse these cfr files! My database would be the files themselves.

Anyway, I am aware of the UPI though I haven't really tinkered around with it. I was under the impression the UPI is for communicating with a solver instance. It sounds like you're saying we can use the UPI to use the solver to somehow parse these cfr files? I would be very interested in that. I'll play around a bit. Thanks again.

How many equilibria strategies are there in a specific spot? At least one? If a villain plays tighter/looser ranges than what is optimal preflop for the game, can we lose EV long term in said game by playing GTO, both preflop and postflop? Or will we at worse break even?

hi, hardware fish here. i own piosolver pro version and looking to upgrade my cpu, i saw it pro only support up to 16 CPU cores (16 hardware threads). it mean it support up to 8 Cores, 16 Threads or 16 Cores, 32 Threads? thanks

Just upgraded to PIO 2.0. I can't connect to the server, even though my Pioviewer can connect to the server just fine. Any ideas?

Is anyone else having issues with Pio since Windows updated their system a few months ago? I've had Pio Pro since 2018 and was able to use it but now I am getting an activation code error and am unable to login. I've entered the activation code that I was given, but it is now allowing me to login. Anyone have any suggestions? Thank you

Hi there, I just upgraded to PIO2. I have it working fine on my computer with no issues but when I tried to move it across to the server I use I got this error message, any ideas whats gone wrong here?

no more support here ? Have they moved the support somewhere else ?

How come when I run an aggregate report and put it into excel there’s no column showing betting checking or raising frequency?

Never mind I found it

Hi,

When selecting a node/respones/future street decision / turn+ river card, my browser isn't updating.

So it finishes solving, i stop it, calculate results, go to the browser. From root, the first action is check 99.99% - when I click CHECK, it brings me to IP response - the browser picture fails to update, and forces me to click "Strategy" again to see the proper reponse. Otherwise the image remains for the previous action, in this case 99.99% check

any idea how to fix this? my PIO used to not function like this.... or in the meantime is there a keyboard shortcut for "strategy"?

disregard ^ i see the refresh on new selection box now

You can use our API the same way the viewer does:

It depends how you measure the difference. Looking at frequencies is the naive/wronge way. Just because something is 100% fold in in one but 100% call in another doesn't mean the difference is significant if the EV went from -0.00001 to +0.00001 for a call. EV wise there is likely not much difference but I really don't have detailed analysis on this, only some simulations I've run which are at this point not enough for me to say anything with enough confidence.

There isn't a feature to highlight that.

I am surprised because neither the RAM (32 GB), nor the CPU (i9-9900) seem to be fully used (maybe RAM is sometimes used 100% when I try to export several reports simultaneously).

If the saves are big (especially if you are using full saves) there really isn't much you can do about it).

Our guideline is to run it for about as long as you would a normal solution or when you see the accuracy stabilizing.

This command is only available in 2.0

Hi is there a way to Node lock for a counter exploit?
For example. I initially node lock a strategy, i.e Villain over folds vs 2CB, then I want to take the new exploitable 2CB strategy and see how villain could counter exploit that.
I really don't understand what you try to achieve there. You would need to describe it step by step.

I don't think there is.

We use a standard way which means:

Raise is a call and a bet. When the pot is 100 and the bet is 100 then to raise 50% you first need to call 100 (the pot is 300 at this point) and then bet 50% more which results in 100+150 = 250.

If it's installed correclty there should be a default one.
This is an advanced feature for people who would prefer creating their own. It's used by the slider (so when you slide from 0% to 100% it marks chosen hands).

There might be infinitely many. If the game is 0 sum (no rake ICM) they all have the same total EV. This is not true once rake/ICM is introduced.

We mainly use Discord and email for now. We are looking for new ways to provide support but it will take a while.
Main resource should be the FAQ:

Cool I see thanks for replying.

I think I may be misunderstanding the nodelocking feature in that case. Say we solve a spot to eg an exploitability <0.5%. I then nodelock OOP to some different arbitrary strat, hit 'calculate results' and find the exploitability is now 7.5%. I then click 'go' again and let the solver start.

Is the solver now calculating the highest EV (most exploitative) counter strategy to the arbitrary nodelocked strategy I selected for OOP? In that case, wouldn't the newly solved strategy ALSO be in turn highly exploitable itself? Or is this not always the case?

I hope I am getting my question across clearly.

P.S. Okay, so I'm now thinking about this again and I suppose the calculated counter-strategy would be exploitable in theory, but because the OOP nodelock fixes OOP's strategy to at least some degree, the EV OOP loses in that branch of the game tree can't then be re-captured in other parts of the tree?

Hello there!

If I buy the PIO Basic, can I upgrade to Pro at any given time paying the difference ($226)?

Can I have the PRO version installed in my PC and laptop at the same time? Or do I have to keep changing the license? If so, can I do it without restriction?

Thanks a lot!

The way it works once the nodes are locked is that the locked strategy isn't allowed to change. That means both the solver and exploitability calculations assume those strategies are set in stone. In other words it's not the same exploitability as it was before locking. It's exploitability with the assumption locked strategies can't change.

Yes, you can upgrade at any time.

You can have it on 2 computers at the same time. You can also move it to another computer if needed (within reasonable limits). See here:

Hello,

If you're paying 5% rake capped at 37 chips, if you want to include a 20% rakeback does that mean solving for 4% rake capped at 37 chips?

Thank you for your time.

It sounds correct to me assuming your opponent has the same rakeback.

Bump

It's a known bug and will be fixed in the next release.

Ok ty

Hello, is there a way to run a script for multiple hands that have been node locked at some spot? My intention is to node lock a few hands on the flop, and then let the solver recalculate the strategy for each hand without having to go and click solve hand by hand (my pc can't run more than one solve at the same time).

No way to do that right now (I mean, you would need to go through the API that requires some programming) but it's a nice feature idea!
