NEW! Seals with Clubs support! This new feature is in ALPHA stage, meaning that I have not tested it fully and might not work perfectly! I played a few freeroll tourneys to test it but I don't want to spend money to purchase Bitcoins to test it on the other games (Ring, Sit&Go).

Donations are welcome! If you want to help improve the software for Seals with Clubs, or you just appreciate the work that has been done already, please make a donation. Any amount helps. (Wallet address: 17A9QgZzpNwDvB77SMiwULBbLHyecDPXpg )

Is it stable? The program is in beta stage. It is fairly stable and definitely usable, but the occasional crash still occurs. I'm hoping some people will try it out and let me know if it's not working properly. Please send the hand history of the game you were playing when it crashed and any additional information that might be useful for debugging.

for the hand recognition, it looks like you are specifying rectangles and you just look for exact pixel matches for every card?

Correct. I have tried to use smarter recognition algorithms, but they only get close to 80% accuracy. This is due to the fact that the card symbols are small in pixels size to begin with. A colormap approach guarantees 100% accuracy (although somebody needs to take the time to make it).

I just sent you 10 SwC chips (0.010 BTC) to support further development and testing.

So the program uses real time image recognition to instantly recognize what cars are displayed, including hole cards, and may connected to the internet..Are there any assurance that the program is not sending info to a server about what hole cards a person is holding?

Great concern, I can assure you that it doesn't disclose your cards, the only connection it makes at the beginning is to check for software updates. This project is free software, so you can always check out the source code (see instructions on website) and see that for yourself.

Much appreciate! Thank you.

yeah, I thought of that if it is open source, unfortunately I not a programmer. I am sure that someone will look it over. But unless I compile the program myself from the source code, I don't really know for sure what is in the already compiled one right?


Thanks.
Could I still run the program if I deny the request to connect to the internet that my fireball asks to allow or block? I could always go to the website and check for update manually. Thanks.

Where do the HUD stats come from? Is there a database? Does it persist between sessions?

right, but this is true for every executable on your system. maybe you trust firefox, but why? eventually you have to put your trust somewhere. i agree that with poker software you need to be extra cautious. (no criticisim of the OP, his stuff is probably legit, just general remark)

Test on a separate, low-funded SwC account.

I haven't tried, but I think you should be able to. Could you try and let us know?

At the moment, the stats come from the actions that have been seen during the current session. It does not persist and it does not save a database. I have been contemplating whether to implement such feature.

I agree that probably OP is legit.. but there are possibilities that cannot be ignored. Also, make sure that this thing is downloaded only from the proper site. Anybody can take the source code add whatever they want and upload to fake site. Maybe the sha1 or sig can be shown at the download page so that the installer can be verified thru checksum Integrity checker to make sure the proper one is downloaded.

About the proper site, pierotofy.it is the domain from which the installer will download the files. It's not pokermuck.com (in case somebody was wondering).

The concern is not as much that it can get your password b/c you can log in to seals before running this but that it instantly knows your hole cards and the program asks for permission to connect to the internet. So no matter how much testing you do, assuming and this is a big assumption, that there is some fraud involved, the other side does not have to act on the info received immediately or every time. They could pick a hand here and there and it would be almost impossible to detect. Knowing the hole cards can go a long way even if sparingly used to change EV over time.

I recommend that you remove that feature, and replace it with a "Check for program updates" menu choice.

So it doesn't use a database to keep past session stats on opponents? That renders it MUCH less useful. I will be downloading tonight to test for you.

its open source so feel free to upgrade it to support databases

+1

If I could program my own HUD would I be here? The man put a post up and I'm giving solid feedback. Again, ill test it out tonight.

Don't be so sure. People are lazy and not that many people have the knowledge to even do it.

FWIW, a few years ago, I wrote my own HUD. The first version was "live" only, and it did not have a persistent database.

Don't expect every feature immediately. It takes time. Toss the programmer a few Seals chips so that he can make it better.

cant seem to get it to work.closes after a few secs of being open whil im at a table and I never get to see a HUD

I left out the Hand history folder path too because idk where it is.Could that be it??

Does this work on zoom/rush? If so, is it because you got access to the super secret API? I may have a look at the source code but just curious till then.
