just buy hands from a datamining service. Not nearly expensive as you'd think.

I bet they buy their hands from some service just like everyone else

I tried something out a little while ago called stars spy or something but my trial ran out and I lost interest...seemed to work though.

well if they're buying it from somebody, then how do the people they are buying it from datamine?

not that it makes a difference, but im not looking to datamine all night while im sleeping, i just wanna get stats on ppl i havent played with 15 minutes before i sit down.

There's software to datamine stars, its highly illegal to use tho. If you get caught using those programs then stars might shut down your account.

actually stars is the no 1 software to data mine with as it allows to open like 400 tables w/o even having to log in

Yea, I guess you really need to just buy a ton of hand histories if playing on stars.

I believe these guys who do the datamining use special software. Technically what they do is not illegal in any way; if one of us was doing it it would be illegal due to your contract with Pstars. But since they don't have an account on the site/are not using it they have not accepted the T&Cs.

Yea, because it's totally impossible to play if you don't have thousands of datamined hands on every reg whilst having no clue what those stats really mean.

i care a lot less about having thousands of hands on regs than i do about having say.. 20 hands on a fish

tableratings.com is missing a ton of hands so its not all that accurate anyways. I just looked at my own results in the sessions tab and its missing half my hands played for some days.
