Instructions for railing Pokerstars in the US

Download Pokerstars from here: http://77.87.180.178/PokerStarsInstall.exe
Mac version: http://77.87.180.182/PokerStarsInstall.pkg.zip

How to capture Stars hand histories:

On the Stars table click the "previous hand" link on the top left, which brings up the hand history box. Click the hand you want to post, Ctrl+A to select, Ctrl+C to copy. Bring up the converter tab in your browser, Ctrl+A/Ctrl+V on the left hand box to paste the new hh. Click the "Convert" button. Ctrl+A/Ctrl+C on the right hand box to copy the converted hand, Ctrl+V into the quick reply box on here.

We generally post ~200bb+ pots, but if there's an interesting hand/showdown, or if there's not much action feel free to post smaller ones.


Posting hands

Please use the following options for converting hands:

Hand converter that supports Pokerstars Run-it-twice feature: http://www.railhand.com
Just paste your hand history, convert, copy generated code and paste in this thread.

Preferred by most: http://www.handconverter.com.
Set to "Two Plus Two Forums" output, "Use player names" and "Show results". You can convert multiple hand histories at once, but please try to separate them once pasted into your reply for ease of reading (e.g type a between hands).

If that converter is down (happens occasionally): http://www.pokerconverter.com.
Set to "Show all names", "2+2 Forums" output and tick "Show results". You need to reset this converter after every hand. I use this converter for NL hands, to make them easily distinguishable from PLO hands.

If you want to post 2-7 TD hands: http://www.feralcowpoker.com.
Set it to "Two Plus Two - textonly" output, and show results and player names.


Action abbreviations

If no hand history available then you can use abbreviated actions to describe action. Preferred action abbreviations:

• c = call
• r = bet/raise
• f = fold
• x = check

this makes the action a little easier to read (e.g., x/r/c instead of c/r/c).


Posting screenshots

Hyperdesktop is a fantastic app for capturing screenshots and auto-uploading them to Imgur. It gives you the link to post here, no need to even visit the hosting site.
Download here: http://gethyperdesktop.com/.

Nice work again!

Never seen Zeejustin make a winning session. How can he be up 100k

Ty once again!

Gogogogogo!

blom putting up like 3-4 times the volume of everyone else and topping leaderboard @ all games, impressive. be interessting to see how he'll place at the end of the year.

how is it even possible that isildur isnt in either biggest winners nor losers? nice work, pretty sick that isil and ben are both biggest plo winners for the year, even though they mostly played each other

Break even.

What are Blom's results YTD for O8?

Here's a list I made of the high stakes cash game players who were the biggest money winners in the Scoop. I know that this doesn't really count but we can keep these results in mind.

Isildur1 1.1m
Exclusive 971k (85k, 10k, 73k, 803k)
nanonoko 368k
toweliestar 300k
Lars 207k (142k, 65k)
ben86 200k
berndsen 104k
fakeoreal 97k
wookiez 67k
Sauce 41k
GVOZDIKA55 34k
forhayley 22k

Top three in YTD Draw games is wtf

Meanwhile Seb and Alex have put in plenty of volume and are barely in the black.

Who is Yoghii btw?

Anyone know who call_911 is ?

Blom isn't even in the YTD O8 winners/losers list. Surprising he's not featured in either of the 10

-10,184


Isildur's o8 2013 YTD results after each month:

• +159,636
• -75,978
• +579,598
• +705,278
• -10,184

Isildur/Trueteller 500/1000 cap now

4 hands, that was fun

Wow @ Ivey being stuck 2.3M. No wonder my friend was willing to give him up easily for fantasy WSOP
