Few Concerns, Mostly with Datamining.

Postby bigbobm » Sat Mar 01, 2008 2:15 pm

Hey, I've been using PT2 for a while, and just reformatted and decided to go right for using PT3. I've been spending a considerable amount of time datamining full tilt, and PT3 has been doing a great job in keeping up with the amount of hands that are constantly being imported.

My first concern has to do with what I plan to do to these results. In PT2, there was a tab where you could see the biggest overall winners with the given filters. I'm not certain if this feature is still available, but if it is, I'm having a little trouble trying to figure out how to make good use of it. With what I've currently got, where I stand is that I have a ton of info on a lot of players, but no sort of HUD yet to make use of the stats, and no way to make my game selection any easier. If there is some sort of feature that allows me to get something similar to the biggest winners and losers list, any help would be appreciated. If not, I'd love to see this implemented.

My second concern might be more on the tech support side, but again has to do with datamining. Typically when I datamine, I have PT3 auto import the hands as they are happening. Well on two occasions I did not have PT3 running while I was doing the datamining, and both times I've run into this problem. What I get is, "2008/03/01 13:09:37: Full Tilt: Warning: Encountered cancelled hand history. (Hand #5436708937)." I will get about 20 copies of that, and then it will load 20 more hh, and repeat. I'm not too sure whats causing it but when I have upwards of 60,000 observed hands to import, and it takes ~1 min to get 20 hh and then run that error msg a few times.

As for the rest of PT3, it looks good and I'm not having any trouble with it. Good work, and thanks.

This is currently not available in Beta 5. We previously had this tab; however, we were unable happy with it and temporarily removed it. We will be adding it back in shortly.

Are you moving your processed files? It sounds like one hand history was cancelled and PT3 keeps trying to reimport it. If you move the hand history in question this should resolve the problem. If you are moving your processed files this file should be removed once you close the table/restart PT3.

Best regards,

In beta 5 you can run reports and one filter you could use is 'amount won', Use it on the 'holdem cash sessions' section. Granted you would have to run the report every time you start pt3 and run it again to update it, but then you have your winner/loser list
