PokerTracker

What is the PokerTracker subject id?

Can you explain what you're trying to do and I'll see if one of the development team can give you an answer?

I'm not trying to do any thing with PT per se. As a hobby (I'm retired) I'm doing some analysis after each hand (using MatLab). As a convenience I'm using PT exported data to import into MatLab. I would like to see how the MatLab analysis performs in real time. With MatLab's Database toolbox I can read the data I need from the holdem_hand_summary table (w/out disturbing the Database). I need to know when PT has finished processing a hand to get the data. I was going to use the PT ProgID to take a look at the available COM properties; to see if any could be used as an indicator to determine when a hand had finished processing. Any recommendations from the development team for a trigger would be greatly appreciated. An alternate approach would be to simply- watch the hand history folder or PT's processed hands folder for a change.

The analysis I'm doing is experimental to say the least and is not related to any category of stat or other info provided by PT. So even if there turns out to be some value in the analysis I'm working on I will still need the PT data for improved play. So I should PT as a trigger, as possible, since it will be up and running anyway. Also, an applications ProgID is frequently included in its documentation. Thanks for your help.

I'll make sure we get an answer from the development team for you but in the meantime you could also look into reading our log files - the PokerTracker4.log file is updated (and it's in plain text) when a hand has been imported.

Thanks. I'll take a look.

How about the PokerTracker 3 Log file?

Yes that too (my apologies I've been posting so much about PT4 lately ).
