You might need to download the .net framework - there is a link in the OP, try that.

You can actually do this very easily in PT by setting up aliases.

heh, thanks.

For those who are interested I've received word that this is fully compatible with Sportsbook as well, since the hh's are exactly the same.

Another way you can do this is to use the "Auto-Import... Generic Setup..." in PT and pick the folder that way.

Why did you put AK in the hands? If the HH did not show any cards for a particular opponent then you should have left it like that. Horrible. You are accepting donations for this shoddy work? If you are going to do it, do it right or do not do it.

cheers

If you can figure out a way for PT to accept a hand that *went to showdown* and not have to show cards, I'm all ears, because my testing shows that it doesn't work.

Dude, nobody said you have to donate.. Don't be an assclown.

Thanks!

Boondoggle,

That was easily the most rude and unneccessary comment I've seen on 2+2 in awhile.

Hi
sry to bother u again, somehow I got all the hands converted before 9-29-2007, can't get any work after that.

please help me on this

thanks

Just got all of them, I think it's those observer files giving the problem.
thanks alot

vhunter, it should ignore observed hands. That looks like a different problem. Can you send me a few hands that were giving you that error?

sorry, forgot about this thread. that was indeed my problem. not sure how to fix it tho.

so, some converted hands showed that i lost money, despite winning. the original hands from the unconverted hh read correctly tho.

I tried to go back and import all the hands ive played on cake and it looked like alot of them were missing, I just figure this had something to do with how bad the cake software used to be with disconnects and freezes so the HH's got messed up, lost probably 1/3 of the HHs that weren't able to import.

Yes, but we can fix that. Purge your previous histories from PT by going to Utilities -> Database Maintenance and Options. Then convert the original histories again using the new version of the converter and re-import them into PT. That should fix it up for you.

Yeah, it's unfortunate cake's software is so buggy. If you find any hands that look legitimate (ie, should have been able to be converted/imported), but it it didn't get them, I can take a look, but if the hand itself is corrupted or completely missing I can't make up information so I have to ignore it unfortunately.

Also, I've received some questions about the "error finding BB value" message. What this means is that the hand is so incomplete that it doesn't even show what the BB is. This is a very easy error check so I put it in, but you can't really fix it (even though the dialog suggests you can), unless you happen to know the details of that particular hand. The error does not mess up the generated histories at all and it doesn't affect processing of the file as a whole, it just ignores that one hand and moves on to the next. I'll try to come up with a better message that explains what's going on.

works for me. ty a lot.

i would love for this to support plo hands

I've begun working on Omaha support (both hi only and hi-lo). I will try to have an initial cut version up tomorrow. Please keep in mind I do not have PTO and I don't play omaha so I'll need you to test it very thoroughly for me and report any errors you come across.

OK, new version with Omaha support here:

V1.2 with Omaha support

Let me know how this works for y'all. The older version is still up in the OP, so if you have problems with the this one, then revert to the older build. I will be going on vacation starting tomorrow through the 31st, so I won't be around much, but I'll try to address everything once I get back.

Thx for the converter.

I keep getting the error "error finding blind value". It seems to be occuring on a decent amount of my files (20% or so by my guess).

Any ideas? When i go to review the hands in Pokertracker it has left out at least a few that I remember.

also...

Daniel,

Read the thread. These issues you mention have been addressed.

"Easily" is a relative term... I habitually change my cake SN every week, since I've been playing there almost a year I had quite a number of aliases to set up.

for me when I import hands right after a session it seems to often be off like $100 or something (i play 1/2 nl), is anyone else getting this or is it usually pretty accurate?

Does this work with cake skins?
