As a point of reference a 100,000 hand HU tournament DB took less than 5 mins this morning, and a nearly 800,000 hand db filled with 7 year old limit holdem hands took 12 minutes on my iMac. I have not performed any huge database cache updates with 4.07 myself yet.

With that said, we would like to know what your experience is after the cache update is complete, please post it here. If you are concerned we advise performing the cache update overnight.

ok. how can i notice when is done if i'm not there at the moment (eg. overnight)? total time of processing is displayed/logged somewhere?

You could send us your pokertracker4.log file, this contains the start and stop times of the PostgreSQL server query we run to refresh the cache.

i just started the cache rebuilding via 'Database Management' - 'Rebuild Cache' button, but since the first moment i did it (~25 min ago) the status says: "Reindexing database PT4_..." which seems curious to me, especially remembering what PT4 support told me about reindexing sometime ago (see below quote).

so, it seems it will take more that we thought with this unanticipated 'reindexing' ... ;-)

When Rebuilding the cache we determine if reindexing is necessary, apparently it was necessary for in your situation.

ok.
seems like reindexing finished after ~ 1 hour.
now it says 'rebuilding cache', elapsed: 25min, estimated left: 11hours
i don't know how accurate are these estimations.
i will post again when everything is finished.

The estimates are not accurate, but it is the closest we can do. The rebuilding is performed by the PostgreSQL server, which does not provide an estimate of time. We create the estimate by evaluating the feedback we get from the PostgreSQL server for each step that the sever reports back to us, and then use this data to create an estimate. Problem is one segment of reporting may take a very long time in comparison to other segments, this could offset our estimate greatly. Its not an exact science, but it is the best we can offer.

I have Version 4.06.4

Options?

You need to upgrade to 4.07. We can only support the latest release. Software development moves forward, not backward... once you upgrade to the latest version please report back to us if the problem still exists.

Oh sry, didn't know a stable Version of 4.07 already existed. It was only shown to me that a BETA Version was avaliable and I am always somewhat sceptical about BETA Versions.

Anyway, that fixed the issue, tyvm

Will the recent EV fix work fine for hyper satellite 6m sit and goes on pokerstars?

will a purchased license work with both the windows and os x flavours of pt4?

I play HUSNG and my ITM% is different from Win% stat. Did i miss interpret one of the stats or something? because i think they should be the same.

Hey, how can I review hands that marked yesterday, or even the day before ??

Also, is there a way to see amount of BB won with certain hands with the number of times we were dealt them, etc. like in pt3 ?

We removed the word BETA from our releases because they were confusing customers, that word was for internal naming originally but it was misinturpted. To correct that we now use the terms major release and incremental release which better reflect our versioning. 4.07 ix a major release, while 4.07.1 is an incremental release.

It was an improvement, not a fix. We have more improvements planned over the coming year. In the improvement Holdem All-In Equity hand vs hand ties are accounted for in all calculations within PT4, this means the improvement is fully implemented in the Equity Calculator, All-In Equity calculation, ICM, and Net Adjusted Winnings calculation

Yes. Each license may be used on up to two personal computers that you own. Our license server technology knows which installations are actively being used regardless of OS.

I need to get back to you on that, this is not an area of my expertise.

To review hands you marked on a specific day use the Tag filter and add in a date filter. Or you can drill down to the specific date in the overview report first.

If you are talking about preflop hands, use the Results > Summary > Group By Starting Hands reports.

Cant we we see all marked hands without opening each tournament inidvidually to see if there is a marked hand it ?

There are MANY reports in PT4, these are just basic examples. You could go to any hand report and do this, or you could create a custom report which only shows hands played in My Reports.

Win % includes Rake, ITM% does not include rake. The formula for what you are looking for would be ITM % - Rake % - 50 = ROI

So I recently downloaded the latest version of PT4 for my Mac and I have since been having a lot of issues. First of all every time I click "Stop getting hands" PT4 will always crash. As well today my HUD has just decided to not update after a every hand has been played, so I'd have to keep restarting PT4 every hand, which isn't exactly practical. Just wondering if this is a common issue, if so is there any solution to the problem?

it took a total of 5h 45mins (including 52mins of 'reindexing' which it seems it was necessary to auto-perform by itself before)

I downloaded pt 4 mac (30 day trial) version a few days ago. I have a database for PT3(registered). The set up started downloading my HH database from pt3 to pt4. PT 4 crashed about 1/3 of they way through. I have since downloaded your update that should fix this.

How do I get the rest of my HH into pt 4? It still only has about 1/3 of them.


My notes did not transfer from PT3 to PT4. It said they transfered but they are not available. These are the notes I have made. Note tracker is working.

I play on a Mac laptop. Space is important. The hud shows VPxx/PRxx. How do I get rid of the VP and PR letters. I need it to just give the xx/xx. The hud display is to big. I know what the numbers mean without the letters telling me.

Hi,

I'm playing on the partypokerdk client and PT4 cant seem to detect the partypokerdk client. I've successfully located and entered the directory where file hand histories are stored, and entered the location in PT4 as well. But it still says that "No partygaming skins appeared to be installed". I've also tried the auto detect feature and it does not work. I've tried everything on the party network config guide on the PT website and it doesn't work as well.

Thanks.
