Custom statistic working in Hand reports, but not Player

I’m attempting to create a custom expression filter and have had some success. Would you please explain why my attempt is failing?

I remember reading you cannot mix custom statistics in Player and Hand reports. What works in Player reports may or may not work in Hand reports. I don’t remember where on the PokerTracker website I read this. Perhaps you can share the link if you remember.

Perhaps the differences between Player reports and Hand reports is the reason I cannot get my custom expression filter to work.

My goal is to run a Player report using an expression where the hero raises OTF. Further, I want to limit the raise size to one-third of the pot.

My definition of a thirty-three percent raise differs from how PokerTracker defines a raise size. No worries. Y’all allow users to customize PokerTracker queries.

I tested this expression in Hand reports. I successfully query for only hands I wanted to query. The custom expression works.

The custom statistic is named val_f_raise_made_pct_k and has this definition.

(amt_f_raise_made_bb-amt_bb_f_bet_facing) / (amt_pot_f+amt_bb_f_bet_facing*2)

In a Hand report, I added this expression.

val_f_raise_made_pct_k between .3 and .36

Everything worked perfectly. The report returned only the hands I needed.

My ultimate goal is to create a Player report using the same expression.

I created the same custom statistics using Player as I did using Hand. PokerTracker allowed me to create the new statistics. All looked well.

I added the same expression to my Player report.

val_f_raise_made_pct_k between .3 and .36

Unfortunately, I received an error. I attached a screenshot of the error. The error involves a custom statistic. I included the definition of the custom statistic in the screenshot.

Any suggestions, please?

Hand statistics like that can't be copied for use in a player report which is displaying data from all hands. In a hand report the data is displayed on each individual line but that will not work in a player report where the data is from all hands - that type of data will need to be grouped in a player report. There are several built-in report statistics that are used for player report grouping - see the 'Player' statistic called 'Flop Bet Size' for an example of this type of statistic.
