I finally got beta 5 working on my machine (tons of problems with the postgres db install) and imported my hh

I just upgraded to beta 6 (installed the version without the db) and when i launch pt3, there is no hand history. did i miss a step? was i supposed to install the full version that includes db again or do something else?

I only have 85,000 stars hands in there. I started a new db, restarted, etc.
Same problem here - hangs on "populating." Also noticed a monstrous CPU usage increase.

Messing around with the filters, I selected:

Facing > Flop > Face Continuation Bet

IT shows a hand where I raised preflop, bet the flop and was raised.

I'm not sure what you mean by "there is no hand history." Have you tried clearing the filters? Are you sure there are hands imported into the database?

I had beta 5 working with all my hh imported and visible in the program. i installed version 6 and now i see no data in the application. there are no filters being applied as far as i know.

i am wondering if you upgrade to a newer version if you need to reimport hh or if i need to install the full version with db again. or if there was some other step i missed.

there is no error anywhere so i'm not sure what any log files will tell you

Is PT3 showing the name of your database in its titlebar? If so, try clicking the "Clear" button next to the "Filter" button.

i have the default database "PokerTracker 3 Beta Database 1" showing on the title bar

I imported my hh into Played Hands and Observed Hands database

I did try the Clear route and that does not work

okay, i have it figured out. i'm a dummy. if i switch to the "Played Hands" database the data is accessible. Which brings me to my next question.....

What exactly constitutes "observed hands"? I am thinking observed hands would be any table that you are observing as opposed to a table you are playing at but sitting out a hand. If that is correct, does it make sense to create a separate observed hands database? wouldn't you want all data in one database so you wouldn't have to toggle db's? I mean if i am observing a table to collect data, but then if i join to play, all the data collected prior to joiniing the table would then be in a separate database. And I can only choose one db in the program. i should have all data in one db so i don't have to think about toggling back and forth. yet you recommend separate db's. hope my question makes sense......

An observed hand is simply a hand where the "Dealt to <player>: [<cards>]" line is missing from the hand.

The recommended route, if you datamine, would be to use one database for your played hands, and create a new database (or databases) for your observed hands. If you do heavy datamining, you may want to create a new observed database every month or so, and rotate out the old databases. The primary purpose of datamining is for HUD usage, and the HUD will be able to read data from multiple databases.

converted my pt2 database (2million hands) and Im getting no player summary results in the latest version. If I just want my results how can I view only played hands?

okay makes a lot of sense if the hud will display from multiple dbs.

i'm on pokerstars and I joined a few tables where i was sitting out (hence no cards dealt to me) and I get no data into my observed hands db in pt3. Is this feature not working yet?

Does pt3 create a cache to load queries faster?

If you have no filters set (click the "Clear" button), please attach the PokerTracker.log file and a screenshot to a support ticket on our website.

PT3 cannot currently import observed hands from PokerStars.

Not yet. If performance becomes an issue, it will be added.

This might have been asked already but does PT3 have the "vs player" feature like HM? What do I need to do if I want to see all the hands I have against a certain opponent? Also, is it possible for me to filter how player A play vs player B?

I am currently using PT2. Do I need to uninstall it if I want to install PT3?

Thanks.

Please, please, please, please keep the key elements of the layout manager in PAHud. Meaning, it can be done once and the stats are always in a fixed spot, whether you resize tables or not. Stats resizing with the table, etc.

Exported 4.3 mil hands in 1h 15min. Nice!

PT3 has a vs Player tab that shows all hands where you won or lost money against a player. You don't need to uninstall PT2 to use PT3. Just download PT3, install, and use.

Stats will definitely resize with the tables. That's basic HUD functionality.

I was averaging about 2000 h/s during my export tests, but that was on a smaller database (550k).

Thought this issue would disappear with one of the updates along the way, but two month now I ahve been using PT2 and PT3 at the same time and PT3 misses hands.

For Feb, PT3 has about 1000 fewer hands than PT2. So I assume somehow the HH got moved prior to PT3 import, so I import the PT2 DB into PT3. Import screen says it is all successful, yet Feb figures are still missing ~1k hands. YTD figures are short ~5k hands. Day start time setting are the same and there are no filters applied other than Since date.

Pretty odd.....

Edit: Another note: all of a sudden with this new updates, the Player summary section is taking forever to load, whereas player statistics fills up in a reasonable time.

Please zip up these hands and attach them to a support ticket on our site. I'll figure out why hands aren't being imported.

Have you changed the stats that appear in this report? If so, which ones?
03-09-2008 , 09:37 PM
I also had some missing hands. Turns out they were hands I was sitting out.

Why does it take so long to add an alias in PT3? It seems it's dependant on the number of hands under the alias added, which would imply PT3 changes something for every hand. Why is this? HEM takes a much easier approach, but you might have a good reason for doing it this way...

You are correct, it does something for all hands aliased, so there is much reduced performance impact when retrieving aliased hands later on, IIRC.

OK, downloaded this yesterday and imported 2.5 million hands. Clustering took 5 hours. Just now I manually imported ~50 hands and the database is clustering again. Its been going for over 40 minutes. I think I read somewhere in this thread that when clustering for the first time it takes a long time but after that it will be significantly faster. Is this normal and any estimates for how much longer this is going to take? fwiw I have dual core 6600, 2 gig ram and 50gb free space.

Also while this is going on it is really impacting on the performance of my computer.
03-09-2008 , 10:44 PM
it's gonna take ages

remember to untick the "cluster on completion" box before you manually import more hands, just cluster now and again (like every 50K hands or so)
