Display Villian's Hole Cards in Reports

[pt4pt4pt4]

I think this has been requested numerous times but I think this would enhance PT4 and worth the time (if not too difficult).

In reports you have all of your hole cards and the board displayed in easy to read graphic images. When Villain wins then it's in text. This makes reading the reports more consuming and somewhat incomplete.

My suggestion would be to have a separate list of every winning hand's hole cards. This list would be linked to each Hand #.

In the reports, if HERO wins then it would be empty in the report

If Villains wins then the graphic Hole cards would be displayed beside the winner's name (Villain).

If it's a split pot, then the expression SPLIT POT would be displayed.

Villains Hole Cards

Initialize List: Winner's_Hole _Cards
Set Villains_Hole_ Cards = Hand #

Begin:

If Hero Wins then call Display: " _______ "
If Villain Wins then call Display "(Hand # : Winner's_Hole_ Cards)"
If Split Pot then call Display: "SPLIT__ POT"

:End


This list would only have to created once initially and updated with new hands after each import. PT4 now can display the graphic cards of Villains.

It seems that this filter is an all purpose filter:

Filter Expression:

tourney_hand_player_statistics.id_hand in (SELECT thps.id_hand from tourney_hand_player_statistics thps, player p where thps.id_player = p.id_player and p.player_name = 'Villain' and thps.flg_showdown)

Because it does that in your reports. Just refer to the hand #.

I agree that this would have valuable purposes for analysis, however it would require a database change and reimport for everyone so I would not expect to see it added in the near future.
