Hi guys,

When producing a hand report for tournaments I would like to have an additional column showing the number of players dealt into the hands. How can I add this?

Thank you in advance

Thank you for the response,

I have followed this path: Configure/ Statistics/ Options/ Import/ (Selected the .pt4stat file)

And PT4 has return the following note:

"Unable to import statistic. The statistic was exported from a newer version of PokerTracker. It cannot be imported"

I currently have PT v4.15.13, do I need to download a newer version? And if so, where do I do this?

Thanks again!

Thanks again for the response!

I have another request; I want to be able to sort the hands in my report by the number of players who "Voluntarily Put $ in Pot" before the flop.

For example, if a guy limps, everyone else folds, and the BB checks the stat would be 1. One guy raises, another calls and the rest fold the stat would be 2 etc.

Is this something that you can help me with?

Thank you in advance
Donal

You would need to make a custom stat for that. There is a stat available for download from the Download Warehouse called "Number of players saw flop (Cash/Hand)" which is close to what you want, but if you want to not count the BB if they checked, then it's a little more complex.

I'm also assuming that you only want to count players who see the flop, not someone who limps and then folds to a raise preflop?

This Column expression will do that:

if[ char_length(cash_hand_summary.str_aggressors_p) = 1, cash_hand_summary.cnt_players_f - 1, cash_hand_summary.cnt_players_f ]

Attached is a rough version of a stat using that.

Hi WhiteRider,

Thank you for the response! I a trying to do the following (An extract from a hand history is shown below):

** Dealing down cards **
MONSTER902 folds
mafilla14 folds
a12tel folds
komaa1 folds
POTCHECKER99 folds
vespr folds
PPFish735 raises [2,870]
Joiz86 calls [755]
** Dealing flop ** [ 3d, 4d, Qs ]
** Dealing turn ** [ 5s ]
** Dealing river ** [ Jc ]
** Summary **
PPFish735 shows [ 9h, Ac ]
Joiz86 shows [ Ah, Kc ]
Joiz86 collected [ 1,790 ]


If the player folds then a zero is put against their name. If the player does not fold (checks, bets, limps or raises) then a 1 is put against their name. Then sum the total number, this number would be the preflop VPIP count. In the hand above the preflop VPIP count would be 2.

I am trying to apply the stat to my tournament hands for analysis, I am not playing cash games at the moment. I am doing this to try to get a feel for ranges in different spots.

Ranges shift somewhat, become tighter, when the pot is multi-way (say 4 players) preflop and only two players end up seeing the flop after some additional preflop betting. (This hand would have a preflop VPIP count of 4 and a saw flop count of 2)

When one player raises preflop and another calls the two go to the flop. This hand would have a preflop VPIP count of 2 and a saw flop count of 2. In this case the ranges would tend to be wider than a preflop VPIP count of 4 and a saw flop count of 2. I would like to group the hands based on the preflop VPIP count and figure out how the ranges vary.

I can code this stat in excel after exporting the hand histories and applying if statements to the strings in the rows of the text file between ** Dealing down cards ** and ** Dealing flop ** [ 3d, 4d, Qs ]. Basically saying "if this cell contains the string "folds" enter zero otherwise enter 1. Is this difficult to do in PT?

Thanks again for the help guys!

That is more complicated, and beyond the scope of our support, although it should be possible if a bit long-winded.

You can use 'cash_hand_summary.str_actors_p' to get a list of all of the players who VPIP'd preflop, although if they make two actions they would be in the string twice so you would need to check for the presence of each position rather that just taking the length of the string, for your purposes.
This post explains how the Actors (and Aggressors) string works.
