Other sites do allow the data mining software so it is wise to check with the site, Absolute Poker FT merge network, Bodog all allow the add on. | | Static Link |
| Posted by: markkaz at March 23, 2008, 9:39 pm | | Topic: PokerTracker Reference Thread Forum: Card Chat | | Thanks for this information. I was hesitant to try out Poker Track but I'm glad to know that it is acceptable to use. I like the idea of a program helping me with my game but I don't have any interest in any programs that gather detailed information on other players. Personally, I would rather rely on being in tune with the game rather than relying on a computer program that takes static information/results from particular games/hands. I will admit that I am making these comments without any hands-on information about any programs. | | Static Link |

He also mentioned a competitive program he thought was comparably good called PokerCrusher. I went to both sites and an analysis of my "style" of play was comparable...... Merlin333 | | Static Link |

I believe I am asking a legitimate question, no need to be rude... I was under the impression that the two software programs were ery competitive with each other, and if someone was looking for information on PT they might also be looking for information on PO. If however PT is far superior to PO, then perhaps a link to an analysis of that fact would be a nice addition to your list.

Probably because this is the "PokerTracker Reference Thread" not the "PokerOffice Reference Thread".

Here is the link to the postgreSQL set up ideo. It's not that great, jumping around a bit too much, but it should give you an idea of the conversion from Access to SQL.

1) Suggestion AG, can you add a little description to some of the links, especially the ones that just say "here"
2) if it gets moved to the archives, can new links still be added? (maybe a stupid question, but I've never tried)
3) Somewhere there was a thread by a b****d member about setting up postgre which I found useful, but can't find it now

Excellent stuff AG.
I suggest we leave here for a while to see what else can be added then clean it up and move to the Golden Archive

Some people had lobbied for a sticky/archive, so here is a cleaned up thread...
1. PokerTracker costs $55 (for one game, such as hold'em). It really is a HUGE alue at that cost and there is simply no reason not to buy for it.
2. ChuckTs beginner's guide here.
3. An excellent set of articles written by Excession from BTP here.
4. Custom autorate rules.
5. Here is a (somewhat dated) guide you can buy (for $20).
6. DM's article on tournament analysis here.
7. Articles by WillisNYC from 'The Poker Camp': here and here.
8. Some good [other] forum posts on stats here and here.
9. An article from Matt Hilger's site here.
10. A new ersion of PT is coming out shortly.
Anyone else have some they want to add?
