Do this and you won't get any errors when converting hands. Anyone willing to write a script that'll do this? Should be very easy to write.

bdon,

The latest version will work. The errors you get can be ignored, I'll fix them with the next update.

Good work,

when did you do the last update?

Regards David

Well, I ran into my first table where two people had the same first 4 letters in their name - PT definitely doesn't like that, even though one was "Jose***' and the other was "jose***".

Is that something the converter could somehow work around?

Any chance I can use this for OMAHA?

ya fix doesnt seem to work for omaha anymore

I've noticed that the dollar figures aren't accurate since the update for NL.

it seems like in some HH's my name is not listed in full it's like "MyN***" instead of MyName. Everything else is identical about the HH, but it seems like the converter assumes that I sat out of the hand because of this. Is there a workaround, I went through most of the HH's and did a find/replace, but i'm still missing some hands

You could try creating an alias in PT mapping MyN*** to MyName. Of course, that would include hands from anyone else with the same first 3 letters.

i've been doing this with the good regs I want to keep track of.

went thru this thread and couldnt really tell... does this converter work with Holdem manager or not?

edit: what about PT3?

Everyone:

I am no longer supporting this converter. Instead, I have partnered with another site who is offering a better version of a Cake network converter. The author should be making a post soon to introduce himself and offer support for the tool.

I have modified the original link to point to this new website where you can download it. The new converter is "free" in that you don't have to pay for it, but you do have to have an active rakeback account set up through the link in order for it to work. It does have a trial version that you can use to try it out. In order to get a full version, just follow the instructions on the website to get set up with an account at one of the offered sites.

I want to thank everyone for their enthusiasm for this tool. I honestly never thought it would grow to be this popular. I am also very thankful to everyone who donated. The author has told me that he can manually include people to have a full version of the tool even if you do not have a rakeback site linked up with him. I am working to get it set up so that everyone who donated will be able to use the new converter for free, as my way of saying "thank you". If you donated, please PM me so I know who to contact (since not everyone who donated PM me), and I will get back with you.

hmm i changed my SN on cake and now im getting
'Observed hands not supported. Supply a hand where you were dealt cards.' filling up my converted HH files.

Can anyone help?

Dear 2p2 Members,

I would like to take this opportunity to introduce myself amd the new improved Cake Network hand history converter. I am the owner of Onlinepokerpromotions.com and Cakehandconverter.com which designed this program.

For those who haven't downloaded it yet you can find the latest version at:

http://www.cakehandconverter.com/mewsiclovr

This program has several major improvements over Mewsiclovr's old converter:

1) It can handle any combination of $$$ F_L_O_P or &&&TURN that is presented. (You will not have to have to manually search and replace on your files).

2) It has a timer function which will autoconvert hands every 5 minutes (or less) and it will skip files that have already been converterted.

3) The program converts hands without adding extra cards (like AK) and the hands are still converted into valid Pokerstars hands.

4) The program can handle Omaha and Omaha Hi Low (Please note we have done limited testing on these hands).

I hope you all find this new program useful it took many days of design and coding to complete.

The goal for this project is to use the converter as an extra incentive to signup players to Mewsiclovr's Rakeback Site. In order to continue to support this project and continue to make this converter free we have asked all users to have an active rakeback account with his site in order to use the full version of the program.

If you have any questions about the new converter or would like to report a bug please PM me here or post the bug in this thread.

Sincerely,

Support

The converter sounds fantastic. But, can you sign up for another rakeback account if you have one already? I also know that Cake is cracking down on people with mulitple rakeback accounts on different skins. They are merging accounts and basically forcing you to stick with one skin. I fully support mewsiclovr for all he has done and would be willing to pay a fee, but I'm concerned about this rakeback clause.

Dear Johnny,

Please send some of your hand history files to support@cakehandconverter.com and we will look at them. The program will only convert hands were you were dealt cards. If you have other files where you did not participate in any of the hands they will be skipped.

Sincerely
Support

Onlinepokerpromotions.com

This program converts hands to the Pokerstars hand format. The resulting hand histories should be compatible with any program capable of importing pokerstars hand histories.

I think this is all well and good, however, if you are going to not offer your program to players who already have an account, which is probably almost all, then your program is seldom going to get used.

Please offer up a way for others to purchase it outright.

Les

I agree. I'd be willing to pay but already have an account at Cake

seriously lame ldo

Email sent, thanks

Johnny,

The hands you sent are all ones where the you sat at the table but were sitting out and thus were not dealt cards.

We have deliberately not allowed these hands to be converted because the Cake Network has been very strict about this program being used only for hands that you participated in and not datamined hands.

Regards,

OPP

Thank-you for your interest, in the upcoming month we will consider offering a fee based option as well.

For the time being your support and signup on another site will ensure we continue to support this software. There are a lot of poker sites on other networks that you can signup for that will make you eligible to use the program. You can hold a rakeback account on any of the 11 sites offered here:

yea sorry threw the wrong file in there Ill send another one soon

I hope that a fee based option will be available. Really, the other option is kind of silly imo. For example, I currently have a rakeback account through Cake poker. In order to use the converter, you're asking me to set up a new rakeback account. To do that and play at Cake, I would have to register at Red Star (or similar). However, Cake is now asking that any multi-skin accounts be merged into one. So that option is out the window. Otherwise it seems that you're suggesting that I register at another site. I don't get it...cuz I want to continue to play at CAKE. I'm not interested in moving my roll to another site and signing up for rb when on another site I will not need the CAKE converter.

Really, this option just basically says "go sign up for a rb account at a site that you do not intend to use, and therefore not generate rake". Obviously this does not let you make $$$ and does not let us use the converter.

I hate to complain so much, but I think you will find that most 2+2er's already have rb at CAKE.

Anyway, I look forward to a fee-based offer.
