PokerTracker - Observing on Poker Stars?
I just purchased PokerTracker tonight, and it looks like it's got a lot to offer. I want to maximize my reads on people, so I was planning on observing via Poker Stars, and letting hand histories build. I have Poker Stars set up to store my hand histories on disk, but it looks like it doesn't work unless I'm actually playing. I tried to get around this by taking a seat and sitting out, but still no luck.
Anyone got any ideas on how I can track without playing on Poker Stars? |

[/ QUOTE ] It's against the Stars TOS to do this, and they don't support it (which is why you only get hand histories when you sit in). There used to be a 3rd party app you could buy that grabbed observed hands through screen reading I think, but I'm not sure if its still around. Edit: And if you are new to pokertracker, its maximum utility to you will not be getting "reads" by massively datamining. Its utility will be maximized if you use it to analyze your game and find your own leaks. |

That's what I'm mainly looking to do, but I figured it couldn't hurt to also have info on people I'm up against. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img] Thanks again! |

Re: PokerTracker - Observing on Poker Stars?
I think there is some way with pokerace to get hands for games you are sitting out of on stars. It has to take control of the hand history window. Look at the help files for PAHUD.

[/ QUOTE ] Ahh, you're probably right...I did see that PokerAce HUD has an export log file option, so maybe it's the hand histories...I'll have to check this out. Thanks for the idea! |

PokerAce Hud does not offer a way to datamine PokerStars. This is against their TOS. PA Hud is seen as OK by PokerStars and I want to keep it that way.
