Whoa! Pokerstars introduces instant HH and HH's saved on your HD!

[Jurollo]

Just found this by accident. You can now click on the game # in the upper left hand corner and get a hand history window where you can see any hand. And if you click on options, you can have them all saved onto your hard drive, this is a great thing, no more emailing HH's and eventually auto updating with pokertracker.

Wow, nice find. That is huge!

[Jurollo]

Just saw another thread on this down a little further, didn't see it before mine, quite the little "eureka!" moment for me when I clicked on it by accident.

i saw that there was an update today when logging on. this is a groovy new feature for them.

i suspect it might not work with pokertracker right away until pat has a crack at it....but maybe it already does.

note - I haven't checked on this yet so if this is another one of those lame-o April Fool's jokes then I officially hate you.

[Kevmath]

It definitely was put in as an update today, and it really works too, you get to see your name in green for the hands you win. Unfortunately for me, that wasn't too often.

Kevin...

No joke, this is for real bob.

i love it!

CAn you store observed hands?

[Jurollo]

For up to 30 days I believe. Finally PS got the hint, I think this might end up making them the number 1 site within lets say.... 5 months... just a guess.

Great find! Do I have to keep the hand history window open for them to store on my HD?

[barongreenback]

This is big. Hey, Paradise, get your ass into gear and do this too.

No you do not, however, you do need to switch the save feature on.... either goto Requests menu -> Display Instant HH OR click on the hand number at the table, and the IHH opens up. You can see the options menu at the top left corner.

Just tick Save, and specify where you want them saved, and also how long for, and "voila" all hands you are dealt into are saved to disk.

Any questions shoot me a PM or email us at support.

wORKS WITH pOKERTRACKER AS WELL JUST POINT TO THE DIRECTORY you are saving the history AND (caps off bugger not retyping) autoimport and you are away.

Apparently it doiesnt work for observed hands only ones you are in so no datamining there.

This is awesome. I think PokerStars just made many thousands of dollar off of me.

Why is it obvious? Party allows it.

[TylerD]

Observed hands are displayed in the Instant Hand History window, surely this can be mined?

[Ro-me-ro]

Because we don't want datamining to be easy!

[Ro-me-ro]

Sure, you can copy paste from the window, but if you want to do this then good luck to you /images/graemlins/smile.gif

Not me, PokerTracker.

I would guess not, I like the instant HH thing, but what makes Party the best site is fish and pokertracker usability is probably not high on their list, for use of play itzgood though.
