Re: Anyone want to write this application?? -- Me love you long time..
 

Here is the first version: http://www.pokergrader.com/software/PlayerCount.jar

You need JRE 1.5 (or 5.0, whatever it is called). It should run with a double click on windows, but sometimes you have to go into the command line and type "java -jar PlayerCount.jar".

It is pretty straightforward. Just pick an input directory where files are stored, it will handle figuring out which are stars/ub and pacific. Pick an output directory where you want the new version to be stored, and click convert.

In whatever the output directory is, the program will put all stars histories in a "stars" director, all UB ones in "ub" and all pacific hand histories in "pacific".

It should look something like this:

Re: Anyone want to write this application?? -- Me love you long time..
 

Hey, so help me figure out how to run it. I def have the latest Java 5.0 or 1.5 update or whatever it is (cuz my computer just reminded me to get it today).

I double click that link, and it tells me it's a zipped file, so I save it to a folder on my desktop, but all that's in the folder (when i unzip it) are files with .class extensions...and I don't know what to do or click to get it to run...

Re: Anyone want to write this application?? -- Me love you long time..
 

Ignore my last post - i saved it as "all files" and manually gave it a .jar extension, and now i can just double click it.

I'm putting it thru the paces right now -- just trying pacific to start with. looks awesome.

Re: Anyone want to write this application?? -- Me love you long time..
 

seems to work like a dream -- here's what i did to test it. i first dumped about 1,000 hand histories from each of those sites through 'playercount' to see how many it 'caught'. then i did my traditional dump/export to see how many of each PT caught. Here were the results.

Pacific: PC identified 695 hands w/ between 8 and 10 players, PT ID'd 684

Stars: PC: 1,534 PT: 1,531

UB: PC: 434 PT: 434

Clearly, the discrepancies are only minor.

I think you just saved me more time than you can imagine!

Why not just write a query to delete observed hands where # of players < X?

Probably a good idea.

Re: Anyone want to write this application?? -- Me love you long time..
 

i'm confused...can someone explain what that means to me?

Is that some sort of SQL query, meaning that i could just dump EVERYTHING into my SQL DB, and then when i wanted to 'streamline' it, i could just run the query that would purge it of all hands where # of players < X??

holy pickled pinapples!

i get home and intend to send some hh to help with the project and kazaam....you have already put up a working model.

mr.pokergrader i am fully freakin' impressed.

if you still need hh from stars / bet356 / party send me a pm.

i am off to give this little bad boy a whirl.

looks like it will be saving me a whole bunch of trouble and/or space in my databases.

i echo teddy's question.....

is it possible to run a querry that would select hands that were both below a certain number of players and observed hands (where i was not seated).

could i then delete the resulting hhs permanently from my databases?....could that be built into the query?

i have run queries in the past with pgAdmin....but i have no idea about deleting hhs.

i might try and post this in the pokertracker SQL forum, although it gets much less traffic so i am hoping for some assistance here.

cheers and thanks,
sean

from UB, Pacific, FTP, Stars, Prima, whatever -- any site other than Party really, it could be used for ALL HHS not just mined hands

How do you datamine at Pacific?
