Hello everybody,
I'm new to this forum, although I visited it as an unregistered user in the past.

A few months ago I decided to build a simple mucked hand viewer, which would simply read the hand history and display in real time the hands that are thrown in the muck (and are not displayed) during showdown.

After I wrote the code for it, since I already had much of the hard work to build a hand history parser done, I decided to expand it further to also provide live statistics and a hud display. As of this time, I'm still in the process of adding new features and the program is still in alpha version.

It's written in C#, works on Windows (no port to Mono for Mac/Linux users has been planned, but it's possible) and it's open source (GPL Licensed).

Some screenshots are available here on this temporary website: http://www.pokermuck.pierotofy.it

Why do I need your help?

The parser currently only works with the italian version of PokerStars (that's where I play). I have no way to play on the international version of pokerstars anymore (pokerstars won't allow me to have multiple accounts), plus I don't have accounts on other poker sites (Full tilt, party poker, etc.). However, the program is designed to be client independent. It should be very easy for me (or other developers) to add support for new clients. All I need is a few hand history files from your poker client, preferably from different game types (a SNG, a MTT, play money, ring) and preferably long enough so that I can cover most of the syntax. It also currently support only limit/no limit hold'em games. But the code is designed so that new types of games could be added in the future.

You can e-mail the hand histories at admin [at] pierotofy [dot] it

I'm specifically looking for hand histories from the international version of pokerstars (the U.S. one) and Full Tilt.

Let me know if you have any questions, comments...

Oh, just to be clear, I don't need your full hand history archive! One file for each type of game is more than enough.

Mm, I thought somebody would have been interested to help. Oh well.

I addded alpha support for Full Tilt and seems to work OK for ring and tournament games (hold'em no limit). It should work for play money games too.

I also added a few more statistics (limping/calling and raising hands preflop) and icons that point out common behaviors.

Looks good. The thing about this software forum is that it's flooded with people making requests so threads where people are offering software to try get flooded out quickly. If you are serious about this software you will have to be persistent

Thanks for the reply! I will be persistent then. It would be a shame to limit this software only to a few clients when it's designed to support many more!

I'm going to open an official thread for the software rather than having a help request. This can be closed.
