Pokertracker also has the option to filter your playing stats depending on your bb stack right? This was the other thing I liked about HEM and for some reason forgot about it when looking at it on pokertracker.


On HEM, it would show your bb/100, evbb/100, vpip, pfr, 3bet aggression and several other stats for your specific bb stack such as


under 10bb

11-15bb

16bb-25bb


etc ... So you could see how you played at a certain stack size and if you ran better or worst when looking at the bb/100 and comparing the evbb/100. I have to assume pokertracker has to have this right? Thanks again for answer my questions.

To create and save something for future use. These custom reports are very flexible and can be used for things such as population data analysis as well as allowing for the use of custom expression filters which goes beyond the functionality of built-in filters.
That would be up to you.
For cash games the 'Overview' report in the 'Results' & 'Statistics' section can be grouped by session. If you are looking at tournament data the available groupings will be different.
Yes.
It's up to you.
Yes.
See this guide for more information on those statistics:

Guide: All-In Equity
'Att To Steal' in PokerTracker 4 is defined as 'Percentage of the time that a player opened the pot by raising from the cutoff, button, or small blind' so you can compare that to the Holdem Manager definition. If you go to 'Configure -> Statistics' you can view descriptions and formulas for PokerTracker 4 statistics.
In PokerTracker 4 there is a statistic you can use for that called 'Preflop Stack Size'. You can also create a custom version of that statistic if you want to use different groupings.

Hey thanks for the responses. Two more questions. First one I had posted above.


What is the statistic for BB fold to steal percentage in pokertracker? The only stat I saw is fold to steal on pokertracker and I don't think this is the right stat since this would include you in other positions besides BB? I want someone's fold BB to steal stat.




So for preflop stack size when I added it to either basic or advanced, it would show 12 different stack sizes. Such as


Less than 2bb
Between 2bb and 5bb
5bb-10bb


All the way to


150bb to 200bb



Is there a way to change the filter such as changing it to the same stack sizes like in HEM? You say you can create a custom version of that statistic but that would require creating a report? Because I don't see a way to change the bb stats at the moment after i added it when right clicking each bb filter. Because earlier you mention the purpose of creating a custom report and for me... I wouldn't need to do this as I just want the stats there. But this is needed to change the bb filters for preflop stack size?

I want the bb to show just like HEM

under 10bb

11-15bb

16bb-25bb

etc


Also how come there isn't a preflop stack size of 200bb and up by default?

Hi, can you guys make the Ignition -> view Hand History more legible next update? It current looks like this:



Can you please just remove all the extra string letters after the "P###" or hide them in the PT4 background somehow? It's hard to read and takes up too much space needing room for all the players huge string names. Thanks

Positional statistics are not listed separately in PokerTracker 4. For reports there are built-in reports grouped by 'Position' or you can add the 'Position' statistic if it isn't. For the HUD you can change the stat property in the 'Item Properties' tab at the top right of the HUD Profile Editor window. Select the stat you wish to configure and scroll down to where it says 'Position'. So if you want 'Fold to Steal' from the BB you would select the 'Fold to Steal' stat and change the 'Position' item Property from 'All Positions' to 'Big Blind'. This works for any of the stats in our library for any of the 6 major positions (Early, Middle, Cutoff, Button, Small Blind, Big Blind). Also you can choose in or out of position with the Has Position property for any Postflop stats.
It's a statistic and not a filter.
Statistics are used in reports whether it's a default report or a custom report. If you want different stack size groupings in the statistic then you will need to create a custom version of the statistic with the stack size groupings you want - see this guide for the basics on custom statistics creation and this guide for a deeper walkthrough. While the latter was written for PokerTracker 3 the techniques still all apply to PokerTracker 4.
The 'Preflop Stack Size' statistic does include groupings of 200bb and higher but if your report doesn't contain any hands with those stack sizes then those lines will not appear in the report.

You can do that by clicking the 'Options' button and selecting 'Display Options -> Mask Player Names'.

Im running card catcher on bovada, so im getting the hands realtime into pt4, but later when i download the full histories so i can see hole cards it counts them as duplicates and doesnt import the new ones with the hole cards, any way around this?

Thanks

We recommend importing hands downloaded from Ignition/Bovada into a separate database.

- Rob

Yes, I'm aware of that. I currently use it, but want to be able to use the player names. Anyway you guys can fix it? Thanks

I'm sure this has been asked before but no luck searching. If I play on multiple sites, is there a way to see graphs that combine these accounts for all hands?

I play on GG and Pokerstars, when you import from GG you have to do it via downloading from their database and importing from disk. This creates two users on the dropdown on the left.

Thanks for any help.

To do that combine your player names as aliases.

That's great, thank you!

Hey guys. On Ignition, every time open a new table the HUDs are assigned to the wrong person and all over the table. Have to unlock, move, then save. It never stays like that though once open new table again.

Appreciate any help.

Any ACR users still having issues with tournaments summaries not generating after completion? Is there something i need checked off in settings?

Please bear in mind that if you are waiting to post the big blind you will see a few observed hands before you start playing and during that time the HUD will not be rotated to your preferred seat. The HUD will only rotate when your first played hand completes and is imported so you shouldn't be making any adjustments to HUD positions until after this point. When the HUD positions are saved correctly then for future tables the HUD should be in the correct places after you have played your first hand and it's been imported into PokerTracker 4.

- Rob

I haven't messed with it b4 getting hand. It always begins with HUDs all over the place. I adjust them, then lock and save. When I open new tables its still all over.

Also, when I click lock and save, then the other table gets messed up. It's like playing whack a mole.

The HUD will not always be in the correct position just after you open a new table and as I mentioned in my previous reply the HUD will only move to the correct positions after you have played and imported your first hand at that table.
Start by opening one table only.

Wait until after you have played your first hand at that table.

After that hand imports into PokerTracker 4 move the HUDs and save the layout.

Open a second table (of the same size/type).

Wait until after you have played your first hand at that table.

After that hand imports into PokerTracker 4 the HUD should adjust to the correct positions.

How do I back up just my library of stats, reports, and HUD profiles including my custom stats and reports?

Don't want to do a full backup including HHs, just want to back up my stats and reports for now.

When backing up you can just select the 'User Data Files' option under 'Optional Files' and have everything else unchecked:

Guide: Backup & Restore

You can also manually backup the relevant folder on your computer:

C:\Users\{Windows Login}\AppData\Local\PokerTracker 4\Data (Windows)

\Users\{Mac Login}\Library\Application Support\PokerTracker 4\Data (macOS)

is it possible to add tracking for MTT's on unsupported sites such at global poker?

I don't need to track hand histories only results.

Unfortunately PokerTracker 4 doesn't support Global Poker and they do not permit the use of tracking software.

- Rob

This worked. Thanks Rob.

Don't think the postflop betsizing filters are working properly, specifically the ones that filter for sizings by percentage of pot.

For example, I'm using this filter to return spots with flop sizing between 15% and 35% pot:



Here's an example HH that is returned that does not match the criteria (flop cbet sizing used is greater than the 35% cap used in the filter

PokerStars - 1000/2000 Ante 200 NL - Holdem - 8 players
Hand converted by PokerTracker 4: http://www.pokertracker.com

SB: 10.24 BB
BB: 35.28 BB
UTG: 76.23 BB
UTG+1: 15.91 BB
MP: 54.4 BB
MP+1: 21.61 BB
CO: 11.01 BB
BTN: 41.81 BB

8 players post ante of 0.1 BB, SB posts SB 0.5 BB, BB posts BB 1 BB

UTG raises to 2 BB, fold, fold, fold, fold, BTN calls 2 BB, fold, fold

Flop : (6.3 BB, 2 players) 4s 7d 3d
UTG bets 2.5 BB, BTN calls 2.5 BB

Turn : (11.3 BB, 2 players) 9d
UTG checks, BTN checks

River : (11.3 BB, 2 players) Qs
UTG checks, BTN checks

UTG shows Jd Jc (One Pair, Jacks)
(Pre 0%, Flop 0%, Turn 0%)

UTG wins 11.3 BB

You are filtering for the size of the bet faced and not the bet made. The percentage of the pot faced is how much a player has to call - it's the same as the players pot odds and the bet amount is included. In this hand the bet faced is 28% of pot and matches your filter:

(2.5 / 8.8) * 100 = 28%

This definition is also necessary in order to distinguish between situations where a bet has been called before you or not as that changes the pot odds.
