Can someone give me some pointers on how I would go about programming a HUD? I tried something in C#.

In particular how to

- find a table (I used GetProcessesByName, but that only gives me the main window)
- draw something on that table
- make it stick (any other way than to repeatedly redrawing?)

Or should I use forms that are always on top?

no idea how to code C# I just used AHK

- WinGet, list (possibly EnumWindows in C#)
- bitblt can draw directly on a table, but it won't stay past a repaint. It's best to make your own form (obv I use AHK GUI), and then stick it to the table with:
- SetParent

Always on top is another option, tho it obviously messes up for stacked / overlapped tables without careful and tricky clipping

Sorry guys if I've not been round to do much modding the last few days - had one of my disks fail at the weekend and then one of the new replacement disks (which was wonky on arrival by the look of it) died yesterday... Hopefully will be back on 2+2 with a working PC by tomorrow / Friday.

Not sure if this is the appropriate place for this question, but didn't think it deserved its own thread.


I'm looking for a program that can put my SNGs into a new stack once there are <4 players. Would be really helpful if someone can point me in the right direction (if this even exists)

Thanks

First off, thanks for answering all these questions (not just mine)! Just wanted to let you know that your effort is appreciated.

I have a question which I suspect may be due to tourney rake (not sure the proper terminology, for example the rake for a 11+1$ tourney is the 1$). Sharkscope claims my total profit is 1,100$, HEM says it's 1,500$, but my Pokerstars account is only up about 900$ (deposited 200 and ran it up to 1,100 without cashouts). I'm TERRIBLY confused about why this is the case, any explanations?

Have you requested and imported all of your hands AND tourney results to HM?

Please update to the latest version - http://www.holdemmanager.com/Downloads/HmUpdate.exe

You need to request and import any/all your tournament histories and import those to HM. Stars does not write the tourney summaries to your hard drive, like FTP does.

Email support@pokerstars.com and ask for ALL your old Hand Histories and Tournament Histories/Results.

They will send you an email with links to zip files of your hand histories. Download all the zip files. Right-Click > Extract the contents of each zip file to a new folder. HM > Import From Folder for all of the unzipped hands.

The tournament summaries should be attached to the email as .htm files. Download the attachments. HM > Import File(s) for all of those files. It will probably ask you to search/select your Pokerstars screen name. If the files are sent as .html you will need to rename them (Right-Click > Rename) from .html to .htm extensions.

Then later, you want to import the summaries on a regular basis:


Pokerstars > Lobby > Requests > Tournament History .. > 200

Then you have to create a text file, from the email, to import to HM.

If you continue to have discrepancies or questions, Please forward the hands and your details/questions to me at fozzy@holdemmanager.net, with a link to this thread and your forum name.

Thanks for the quick response and willingness to followup, fozzy. I'm very confused about the line I quoted though, PokerStars does automatically store the hand histories on my hard drive, so is that not good enough? Why do I need the summaries too?

Also, I guess I'll need to clear my database before I do that or else I'll have duplicate entries? Another problem with HEM, it's telling me that I have 13 tournaments that I haven't finished yet?? Not sure how this is possible as I don't have any open right now.

I'm still worried about the discrepancy in Sharkscope and my actual account, but I suppose it's possible I may have forgotten cashing out or something... I just wanted to be sure that if sharkscope tells me I'm making 2$ per game, I'm ACTUALLY making 2$ per game and not 1$ (because of the "rake").

Nope, not good enough.

Quote:

If you play a tourney over a single table (MTT/MTT-SNG) the hand histories wont contain any of the results info: place, prize, etc. Full Tilt writes a summary for every tourney that get auto-imported. At pokerstars you must request them and import them later/manually.

No, it will ignore duplicates.

This is most likely because there are no results information for those games. If importing the summary files does not help, you will need to complete them manually.

does such software exist that will change $ to bb for Full tilt? This would make it less confusing to play multiple stakes at once

Tableninja can display the number of blinds you got. (it will not change $ to bb though)

Hello, Fulltilt table doesn't pop up, when i have to act. In setings everything is ok. The problem started, when I installed Windows 7 instead of XP. Can you tell me how to solve this problem?

Try running as Administrator (Right click the full tilt icon then select Run As Administrator). Windows may be preventing FT from moving the tables.

I wrote pokerprolabs.com a letter, asking to block my stats 2 days ago, but nothing happened. Their site says, that it may take up to 24 hours to block the stats after I send the request. Support doesn't answer to my e-mails. Has anybody tried to block your stats on Pokerprolabs and how much time did it take?

Random off topic question: is trying to cut paving slags with an angle grinder a bad/silly thing to do? Bought a special concrete cutting blade for it (which cost nearly as much as the angle grinder itself...) and on the second slab the motor went poof

Worth taking it back or are they just gonna tell me it was my fault and/or inappropriate use?

I think that's quite normal. especially if there's a blade specially for it.

Something like this works a bit better for bricks:



I think it's also pretty common to use water as a lubricant and to keep dust down.

Anyways might as well take it back and see if they'll replace it!

Yeah. I thought it would be OK but somehow my younger brother jokingly said "it'll break on the first one!" last week and he wasn't far wrong lol!

Yeah would be nice, but I only have to cut three paving slabs in total (and two are done now!). If only the bloody thing could have lasted for one more

I also have a "bolster chisel" that should work OK to do the last one, but my earlier attempt with it ended up fracturing the slab into 4-5 bits instead cutting it

Instructions specifically said no water or lubricant (as they can distemper the metal, etc).

Yeah, gonna see what they say - was just a bit suspicious when my brother's prediction came so true!

not sure if this is the right place but when i used search all i could find was a 2 year old thread concerning this problem with only one post from the last two years so here goes.

i play around 12-20 tables of cash games on pokerstars frequently and only as of late have had a huge problem, including three times in past 24 hours alone which has been quite tilting!!

all my tables have lagged for like 15-30 seconds maybe and when i get back most tables i'm sitting out and are dead (nothing to click on yet i'm still sitting, have to go back to lobby which doesn't even always work to sit back in), this i believe is coinciding with pokerstars sending out a news update which is not the same as pop up notifications which i do have set off, while this occurs pokerstars brings up the message same as when the connection is broken that it is trying to reconnect which does eventually happen, i'm pretty sure my connection is ok but something else is amiss but i'm a loss for what that might be and would appreciate any help.
