"Can you give me a list of acceptable programs?"

"41. Telescope by SpadeIt"

Is there any plan on a mac version in the near future?

I just bought Holdem Manager

Does spadeye work with this, just like it has with pt2?

Or do i need to make some adjustments?

Why does my SnoopFree security software show that
SpadeEye is trying to read the screen?

Is this necessary to read the lobby information? I dont see why
this would be necessary since that would only apply to character
recognition and the API functions should easily get the player/table data
you need directly.

Im suspicious of any poker related program that has access to read
my screen and must bypass my firewall to even work.

Hey everyone

Just wanted to confirm... so Spadeeye is legal to use on Full Tilt?

Thanks in advance.

There is definitly a problem w/ Spadeeye/PT3.

When I'm scanning, I'm getting 20,000 Hard Faults per minute from postgres.exe (on vista) only managing to scan about 1 table per minute. Mr Snood, Could you please look into this. When i use a PT2 DB i scan 20-30 tables per minute. And the size of the DBs are about the same (in terms of # of hands).

Also, I was wrong about having isolated the problem. The scanning problem is there even if nothing else is running.



PM me if you want, I can provide you w/ .log files or whatever you need to solve this problem.

Same Problem here with PT3 (beta 10) and EyePoker. When I try and scan all the tables I get the following error:-

3 failed ERROR: relation "players" does not exist

Sorry for my late reply.
I am currently moving out to another country and have alot of bureaucracy, furniture, internet and and and to solve...

On FTP SpadeEye only takes care of opening/closing tables for you.
The FTP client already writes the handhistories of observed tables on its own.
So you should leave the SpadeEye "destination directory" blank and not move the files to it.

The handhistories are being written to the directory you set in "options->handhistory..." in the fulltilt client.
Make sure this option is enabled and you are logged it, at least with a play money account, as otherwise no handhistories will be written.

Thats exactly what i think, too.

Nevertheless, here is the SQL Query.
Maybe you see a big leak?

"SELECT count (hhps.id_player),
SUM (hhps.amt_won),
SUM(case when (hhps.flg_vpip) then 1 else 0 end),
SUM(case when (hhps.cnt_p_raise > 0) then 1 else 0 end), SUM(hhps.cnt_f_raise) + SUM(case when (hhps.flg_f_bet) THEN 1 ELSE 0 END),
SUM(hhps.cnt_t_raise) + SUM(case when (hhps.flg_t_bet) THEN 1 ELSE 0 END),
SUM(hhps.cnt_r_raise) + SUM(case when (hhps.flg_r_bet) THEN 1 ELSE 0 END),
SUM(hhps.cnt_f_call),
SUM(hhps.cnt_t_call),
SUM(hhps.cnt_r_call),
SUM(case when (hhps.flg_showdown) THEN 1 ELSE 0 END),
SUM(case when (hhps.flg_won_hand AND hhps.flg_showdown) THEN 1 ELSE 0 END),
SUM(case when (hhps.flg_f_saw) THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) FROM
holdem_hand_player_statistics hhps, player p
WHERE hhps.id_player = p.id_player AND p.player_name = 'Testname'
GROUP BY player_name"


Agree.

Do you use PokerTracker?
Configure the PokerTracker FullTilt Autoimport with your FTP handhistory directory, then PokerTracker will import the tmp files, too.

Yes. A previous version of SpadeEye included a rudimental PokerStars support. PokerStars did not like the datamining feature i guess, although SpadeEye was not able to datamine PokerStars itself.

Nevertheless i cooperate with the PokerStars gaming commission.
So i removed the PokerStars support and created Telescope instead, which you can see is allowed by PokerStars:
http://www.pokerstars.com/poker/room/prohibited/

Existing SpadeEye user do not need to worry about using SpadeEye on e.g. PartyPoker while playing on PokerStars.
It is safe to use the latest SpadeEye versions.

Unfortunately there are no plans for a mac version.

SpadeEye works with HoldemManager.
Please take a closer look at "main->options->databases".
You can set the "type" to "HoldemManager".
The other settings are pretty similar to configuring SpadeEye with "PokerTracker PostgreSQL"...

Well the trial period is saved online.
The registered version does not need any internet connection.
I am not sure but i guess any such tool (e.g. PokerAce, Idleminer...) use a similar technique that requires an internet connection for verification.


You can block SpadeEye from capturing the screen with SnoopFree.
This is some old part for a previously included PokerStars support, but is now no longer used by SpadeEye, or do we talk about Telescope/EyePoker/...?

E.g. Telescope (for Stars) or EyePoker (for iPoker) need to capture the screen to read the table and playernames from the lobby...

Ripping your username and password via screencapture doesn't sound very promising to me . I am not an expert, but i guess this is not the usual way .
On the other hand SpadeEye now exists for almost 2 years.
The first version has been released Sep. 2006.
So i think SpadeEye has gained some reputation during this time, and we want to continue with our business and expand in legal areas, as this is much more profitable to us

Yes, it is

Sounds like you have set the database "type" to "pokertracker postgreSQL" instead of "PokerTracker 3".
Can you please take a closer look at "Main->options->databases" and check this?

Can you get me a backup of your database somehow please?
How much hands are in your database?
Can you contact me via ICQ (86080479) or AIM (MrSnoodSpadeEye) to manage this?

Thanks, my mistake. Forgot to change the that setting for the new PT3 DB.

Mr Snood,

I can't get the table rating feature to work on Telescope. I set it, but nothing calculates on the screening screen.

Yes, the scoring in Telescope is bugged.

On the website, it's advertised that when a datamine is going that it will NOT open up tables where I have 1000s of hands on players and instead open up tables where there are more unknown players. I don't see it doing this, though; it's just opening up tables like normal. I've looked under the datamine tab but don't see a way to set this.

Also, anyone have a good rules for scoring?

Bumppp for last question.

How do I make sure the datamine gets tables with unknowns and players with lesser hands?

Menu item Main --> Options

Then the fourth tab is 'Close Tables'. There is an option you can check to 'close tables if more than X players with Y hands on it' and you can set X and Y. It does warn you that that is CPU intensive.

Ah okay, I thought the filter would be a little better than that but that works. Thanks for the help.

Now, I just gotta figure out a good way to score...

Since the latest Full Tilt upgrade the DeepStacked No Limit tables are in the same limits as the regular tables. Would it be possible to filter (with opening tables for datamining as well as with scanning tables) for deepstacked only/without deepstackes tables? The deepstacked tables all have the text '(deep ' in their title.
