Hey I just finished installing this program but I have ran into one issue. For some reason it isnt showing ANY results from all of my SNG's. Right now it is showing me as having a total profit of -$520 for the past month, purely due to the fact that it shows that I have not once been in the money. I use full tilt.

Thanks ahead!

That sounds like auto-import is pointing at the wrong directory. The log will show any files that have been updated in the last 10 seconds, if there is no output then no files were updated. I suggested checking for typos.

Also 0.22 has been released, but not announced yet.
Only Razz and Holdem will show and encoded starting hand, as the other games haven't been done.

Holdem has 169 distinct start hand combinations, most of us know.

Razz has 1183 including doors card combos - (32)A (3A)2 (2A)3 have equivalent hand strength, but different doors (apparently, i'm not a stud player) making them play differently.

Stud has 1755 unique combinations, but suits and door cards matter giving 5265 different start hand combos. a) That makes for quite a complex and memory hungry SQL query and b) Thats a lot of hands to attain any sort of statistical significance to the start hands.

Would you actually want that many entries in player stats?

If not, how would you like to see Stud hands displayed/ordered in that view?

You need to import tourney results separately at the moment, see Import->Tournament Results Import.

Stars tourney results files should be pretty solid, but I dont have a lot of FTP results files at the moment so the importer may crash.

If you are willing to send me a batch of FTP SnG results files, i'll make sure that they all work before the next release - assuming they don't work already.

does this tracker work anywhere near as good as HEM Or PT??

I've never used either product, but both products have significantly more features than FPDB for Holdem and probably Omaha. As I understand neither product supports Draw or Stud games.

Crap. Thats wrong. Suits dont matter as upcards, but suitedness does

Question remains - how would you like the start cards represented.

(Ah2h)3h = (A2)3s
(Ah2h)3d = (A2s)3
(Ah3d)2h = ??
(Ah2c)3d = (A2)3o

Sorrow

Man, I don't know, I'm totally new to stud The commercial products do handle the starting cards for Omaha though... too late now to get PT Stud and check it out as it's no longer available.

As for my autoimport problem, it's solved... I was trying to set this up "offline" ie not playing at the same time, so I just tried dropping some old files to the autoimport directory. Seems you check the date to see whether to import or not?

I now get the hud menu but don't see any stats. Also the window showing the previous hand does just that, I can't scroll further down in history. I'll be going trough the tread but any one with pointers feel free to chime in

How do I set up FPDB to only import certain games? There's two "Games" entries for each site, is this what I need to edit?

hi,

are there plans for mucked cards for triple draw
and also, can i look at individual hands somewhow?

id also like to report that the tool called smack for triple draw does show mucked cards to anyone interested.

I'm interested in any feedback stud players have, I don't play and I can implement whatever people actually want.

Its not that smart - it imports any files that have changed size or timestamp since the first scan of that session.
Does the HUD menu show the table names?
I have no idea what you mean here.
Triple draw (and all draw games) recent got an update from ChazDazzle that records all shown/mucked cards. Hopefully by the next release the mucked card display will gain the ability to display it.

Individual hands cant be shown at the moment - for a variety of reasons (mostly my laziness) FPDB only recently gained the ability to actually retrieve a full hand from the database after it had been imported.

Hoping to have a Stove, initial hand replayer and basic 'hand fetcher' for individual hands by the next release.

Sorrow

Yeah the main window shows the names (running 2 tables). Both tables have the FPDB menu (which, btw, doesn't move if I move the table, this is 0.21_rc2 on Win7 64bit, dual monitor setup).

When I open Preferences>Sites>FullTiltPoker, there's stuff like site_path, font_size.... and two entries named "Games" (data is holdem,razz,omahahi,omahahilo,studhi,studhilo).

So can I edit these entries to make FPDB only import, say, studhi and studhilo?

One idea I had for this was to only store hands that you VPIP. That should reduce the number of combinations significantly.

Of course you still need to sort those hands into "categories" of ranks and suitedness.

im in love with fpdb i admit.

can i somehow query the db (im pretty competent in sql) so as to find hands that fill my criteria?
for example, how many hands did i win with a bet on the end, or whats the average pot size on the river when im still in the hand?
that would be awsome.
is there a way to do this programmatically?

I don't see any reason why it isn't showing mucked cards for draw games, but it isn't. I will be able to dig into this on Tuesday.

If you're looking for a db interface, the SQLite Manager plug-in for firefox is pretty good. Just install it in your browser and find the fpdb database file in your application data. From there you'll be able to examine the schema and run queries on your data. The database schema article in the wiki should get you started - though it is a bit out of date - http://****************/apps/mediawik...atabase_Schema

I've spent 3 hours on this and haven't even been able to get it downloaded. I can give somebody a little bit of money if they can remotely view my computer and help me out. I have windows 7. Thx.

ok can i ask an advanced question? say i want an extra stat that doesn't exist, say how many times someone reraises river. is this something i can make a module in py and then pass this stat to the program?
if its not the correct module please redirect me.

Recommend you download the forthcoming 0.22 version, because this fixes a couple of win7 problems. Try this direct link:

http://****************/projects/fpdb...2.exe/download

Once downloaded, this short video might help you get up and running.

http://****************/projects/fpdb...l.avi/download

You are using win7, so process is almost the same as the video, except that fpdb.exe and hud_main.exe need to be granted adminstrator rights, + the site hand histories are stored in a different directory to the default one.

Don't know which browser you are using, but that video used firefox.

If you come to the #fpdb channel on irc.freenode.net, someone will be able to talk you through any problems.[/QUOTE]

Hi! Thanks for the great program!
I've been also trying to get the tournament results working, on PokerStars. However, it never shows my money won from the SNG. I've tried both bulk import as well as tournament results import, but just like the guy you replied to said, my graph is simply taking my entrance fees of each SNG into account. So my graph is a negative linear graph showing no ITM finishes. How can I fix this?

There is a module that already handles the stats calculations, so it would have to be updated, along with the database schema, in order to add anything new. I believe someone had expressed interest in adding 3-4 bet post-flop statistics a few weeks ago. Not sure if any progress has been made yet, but I might add it to my list of to-dos if i get some free time.

No - that field in preferences doesn't actually do anything
Mucked cards aren't recorded for draw games in that release. ChazDazzle just pushed some code which does this, but there are still a few things broken (Chaz, the HUD doesn't work in my tree currently)
You would need to modify the source as it stands. Its not overly difficult - donoban recently added several stats in a couple of days without ever having looked at the code.
Are any results showing?

If you have results files that aren't appearing I'd like to see the files. Every Stars result file I have imports now, but I haven't played any tournaments or sngs in about 18 months.

i want to propose something, being a coder that is.

it would open up vast possibilities if the stats were in modules and then someone could write his own stat with a little python and sql.
the database schema could include the actual hand shown down by players or any knows cards.

this way for example, i could write a module for displaying in the hud, how many times has this player shoved or called a shove with top pair top kicker.

I think this is would be a breakthrough for huds.

i hope you take it into consideration, and if i can help i will, although im not very proficient with python.

This would be a pretty sweet application for the select hand method, don't you think sorrow?

thinking a little more on the subject, i believe it is theoritically possible to give ranges a whole other meaning (with adequate samples).

say we have a villain who plays 30% and we include in his probable range cards that never plays. maybe he likes 76s but not 98s (why i dont know lol).

so a new generation of huds could have *actual* hand ranges , actual shoving ranges etc based on true data (what you see).

The challenge with this, aside from the technical difficulty, is that site's really don't like tools that give you advice on the hand you're playing. General statistics are fine, but start scraping the screen for board cards and actions, and you're going to run into trouble pretty fast. That's not to say there aren't acceptable ways to use these statistics in-game, you just have to be smart about what you would store in your hud. Wrote a COTW about this kind of thing, so I'm certainly interested.

this is not much different from regular stats. its what you saw, not something you stole. you just keep it in memory.yeah maybe you are right but the modules would be fun
