Hand Histrory Improvements
Just made the first improvements to the hand histories in a while. I'm always afraid of pushing stuff like this out there since I have a hard time making sure I'm chopping up all the hands properly (for each game/site combination), so please be nice if/when you notice bugs...
At any rate, when you upload hand histories, it will now attempt to extract all players' cards so that the hand history shows a summary of what was dealt to each player (whose cards are known) and what the board was. Here are some examples:
Hold'em
Omaha
HORSE
That last one shows that Stud games work (as well as they can). I just hope it works for each site.
As a reminder, we can parse hand histories for Full Tilt, PokerStars, and PartyPoker right now. Obviously we'd like to get other sites' HH working, but someone would have to express desire to upload hand histories from another site first.
I hope you can see where we're going with this. Now that the system cn extract the cards, we can head towards telling you what the odds were, wht a given player's tendencies are, what your own tendencies are, and so on. We just need to link up the odds application with the hand histories...this was one of the main ideas of this site in the beginning. Maybe sometime in the next 5 years it will be as awesome as we all want it to be.
Thanks for being patient, and thanks for using my little toy.
