Datamining

[phixxx]

Could someone give me a quick rundown of how to datamine? I open tables and click auto-import, but it doesn't seem to work. Do I have to be seated at the table in order to datamine?

If someone could quickly explain we can delete this post, I'm new to PT and it would help me alot if someone could outline how this is done. Thanks! ;]

there is a setting in the auto import taht asks whether you want to get observed hands, you have to turn that option on...

Edit: When you start the auto import there is a button "Configure IMoprt of observed hands" click that and do the settings...

Thank you very much.

6.Make sure "Do not import observed hand history files at this time" is NOT ticked.
7.Make sure "Do not store the actual Hand History text for these hands" is ticked. (No real reason to)
8.Make sure 'Folders to be searched:" are the same listed above.
9.Click OK
10.Open Party or other afiliate site.
11.Open up to 4 tables of your choice.
12.You should now be mining.
13. To be sure go back to Poker Tracker and look at the Status window... click on 'Force Import' button and you should see:
A.Starting Import, xx files found...
B.Starting import of observed hand history files, x files found...
C.Import Finished - xx file(s) read - x new hand(s) were imported.

Hope this helps
