Default Re: expected value of tournament play

I use PokerTracker. It's usable, but you have to calculate the final table and win %s yourself.

With Party, when you import your hand histories, you will automatically import where you finish and the amount of $$ you win or lose. You do have to enter the tournament details yourself by hand (buy-in, rake, # of players in tournament).

With PokerStars, when you import the hand histories, it does not automatically import where you finish. You have to request a tournament history email from PokerStars and import that also.

Needless to say, using PokerTracker also allows you to compile data on all the hands you play. You just can't take the results as literally as your ring game stats because of how tournament conditions change over time -- blinds, your stack size, bubble play, etc. Still usefull, though.
