Does a program exist that converts pot size to big bets? I've been playing the 15/30 lately and it's a pain to divide by 15 constantly while multitabling.
It would be sweet if your pot odds would pop up when you have to make a decision. For example, if the bet size is 10 and the pot is 100 it would say "10:1 you need 3.8 outs" or something like that.
Does such a program exist? If not, can someone make one?

I think it would be agains the T&C to spit out pot odds. It should be okay to display all bets as BB instead of $s though. I'm waiting for that app to be built.

Me too. It would make moving up in limits trivial. And the days I play 10/20, 15/30, 20/40 and 30/60 at the same time, counting pot odds would be much simpler.

I suggested this to Josh from PokerAce to add this feature, but he was afraid of it being in the gray area of something that poker sites would not allow.
Maybe if enough people asked, he might change his mind.

If anybody knows how to contact the creator of PlayerView then he wrote something called 'Blinder' (it can be found in the TiltBlocker thread). I am fairly sure the same techniques he used can be used for this idea (and also can be used to block PP client from auto-foregrounding it's windows).
BUT, I would be very wary of including this in something like PAH, as the techniques could definitely be considered a 'gray area' and it may endanger PAH's legibility /images/graemlins/smile.gif
I am likely to be too busy until the beginning of March to look into this properly /images/graemlins/smile.gif, but if nobody has tried this by then; I am prepared to give this project a shot when I have more free time. I will make it a 100% stand alone project and this way it doesn't risk any established projects which are currently accepted by the sites.
I am happy to do it for free, but if anybody can track down the PV developer, I am sure he could easily adapt his blinder to do what you all want and he might be interested in taking this on as a payware project (he has done the groundwork already in 'blinder'). /images/graemlins/smile.gif

bump, it'd be super-awesome if pokerace would keep track of opponent stack sizes (since last update of course) and put opponents names with short stacks in flashing letters so that you see them more clearly. /images/graemlins/smile.gif
It would be semi-useful, not 100% reliable, but better than nothing.
Soma, nice av, btw. /images/graemlins/smile.gif
Also, maybe make a mod that displays common pot sizes and their sb/bb equiv: i..e just edit your table image. /images/graemlins/smile.gif

<font color="red">Ok, this is definitely 100% possible, and actually it should be VERY easy to do.</font>
I so far have something hacked together in about 1 hour which does the following for Party Poker:
1. Remove the '$' symbol.
2. Multiply the $ amount by 10.
3. Add the letters BB on the end.
For example: $15 is displayed as 150BB and $0.5 is displayed at 5BB, etc...
Currently it has no way to tell what level you are playing at (hence why I just x10 for the BB) and it also converts the $ values on the lobby as-well as the table. But obviously this 'proof of concept' code can easy be fixed up in not much time.
I also guess it can be extended to work on other sites quite easily.
BUT: I don't want to spend much time on this if it is instantly gonna get banned (I have lots of other stuff to work on...). Also note, I am only gonna do the convert to BB thing and nothing to do with pot odds etc...
Whats the feeling here - is this worth investing the time?

For limit games, could you make the pot size divided by the big bet size?
jukofyork
02-12-2006, 07:48 PM
Yes, I can make it display amounts in either big bets or big blinds. I will just parse the values from the titlebar of the window and it has both (eg: $10/20 or $15/30 etc).
I don't play NL or SNG's so I havn't checked this out yet for them...
I can make the application so that it converts the following:
1. Central pot size(s) displayed in the middle of the table.
2. Amount quoted next to each bet made by each player (will work for NL and L).
3. Stack sizes (if this makes any difference or is useful? [maybe for SNGs?]).
(The remove $, then x10 is only for testing if the idea is possible, but it does work...)
I could make it so that the Call button say displayed your pot odds on a call, BUT I think this will be more likely to get banned under the "Unfair Advantage" rules. I can't really see any unfair advantage to displaying BBs rather than $ amounts, but think if I ask party about this I will just get no response (this is why I ask here...) /images/graemlins/smile.gif
Also I don't think their is much point in changing the values in the dealer chat into BBs, so will keep these as $s.
I also at the same time can probably make a much better version of the 'blinder' utility. With options such as having an alarm if you drop below X BBs (but I will do this after...).

That would be very cool - maybe optionally with auto-rebuy when stack size < xBB (then I wouldn't have to buy in for rediculous amounts in fear of beeing all-in when I finally get quads /images/graemlins/smile.gif) and a warning message when bankroll < x$ (should be easy to read bankroll size from the buy-in window, no?).

Yes this quite easy too. I think this needs adding to the AutoResizer code too, as somebody noticed it gives you the "Insufficient Funds" window repeatedly if trying to use auto-buyin option you haven't enough to buy in (this is on my fixlist /images/graemlins/smile.gif, just not much time yet - the $ -> BB code is actually very easy and quick to do...).

3. Stack sizes (if this makes any difference or is useful? [maybe for SNGs?]).
[/ QUOTE ]
It would be EXTREMELY useful if I could instantly know my own stack as well as my opponents' in terms of BBs at the current blind level. (The current blind level is displayed in a label on the bottom left of the table window. I'm sure you can grab it the same way you grab from the title bar). This, in fact, is the only feature I (an SNG player) would really need.
jukofyork
02-12-2006, 09:40 PM
Ok, I will look into this, as it won't be any harder to read this value than the value from the title bar.
The only hard bit is working out which number is stack size, pot size(s) and bet sizes; but if I divide ALL by a number I can easily find on the window then this keeps the initial app simple. Later I will try to customize it and allow each to be independently switched on/off. /images/graemlins/smile.gif

02-13-2006, 02:24 AM
Yes, strip the BB from it. Just removing the "$" is sufficient to distinguish, and the BB is visually taxing, IMHO. Mind you, I don't actually want this mod, but have done a lot of mod-tuning and interface work and think it will look cleaner without it to the bleary-eyed watching their 6 tables for 8 hours a day.
And I can host if you want. My provider's servers are sometimes slow, but they've always been there.

Thanks all for the votes. There seems a consensus that it will be useful and most likely wont be banned (I hoping not anyway...). I don't think though adding pod odds etc will be such a good idea, but the advanced 'blinder' idea seems fine to be added I think.
Just a quick update on progress. Not had much time today to do much with this idea, and fairly busy tomorrow, but hope to have a test version ready for Thursday/Friday.
Also, somebody just PMed me and told me the same idea looks likely to work on Poker Stars too, so maybe this will turn into a multi-client app (but I just stick to party+skins to start off with). Once the idea has been tested and I sure it not causing stability issues, then I will look into getting it working on other sites also.

I finally found a workaround for my main (unforeseen) problem before I went to bed last night, and I have a semi-working prototype version now.
Even so, there are still some issues with both speed and stability (which could be much more extreme on other people's systems, so this needs working on more before I can get to the stage of alpha testing). It also appears that Party have decided to release their new software just today and this might undo some of my work.
As soon as I see the new software then it will be clearer if anything they have done will make any difference to this project, but due to all these problems (and my other commitments are building up) it could be a little longer than expected before I can release an alpha test version.

Hi to all those interested,
I now now have an alpha test version ready and would like to get some peeps to try it out.
If you reply to this thread, then I will PM you the link on the agreement that you do not spread the file to others, you accept that it might crash, and agree to give me feedback (either +ve or -ve), as without feedback I can't really be sure of its usefulness and/or its stability.
I don't want to post a link to the public yet, as it could be very unstable (this is 1st alpha version and uses some tricks that could make it buggy as hell and I don't want people to be losing $ from it crashing - ie: if you want to test it then expect possible crashes! /images/graemlins/smile.gif).
So far it <u>just converts $'s to BB</u> for the following:
1. Central pot sizes.
2. Bet amounts.
3. Stack sizes.
It also currently <u>only</u> works on LIMIT RING GAMES, but after a few people have tested it I will improve and add the other features. I just don't want to spend too much longer on this idea if the idea turns out to flawed and unstable/slow... /images/graemlins/smile.gif

I think this could be my fault again, as a couple of people are having problems opening the zipfile:
I think it is the extra '.' in the name that is most likely causing the problems (sry!).
To solve this just dl from the link I PMed you, then rename the zip and remove the extra '.' symbol.
If the zip still says it is unknown format or corrupt, then look at the link in the PM I sent, and I have now posted a .rar file with the same name at the same url, so hopefully this will work.
So far I not had any bad feedback about crashes/slowdowns (fingers crossed!), but think I will wait until tommorrow to post the link for everybody - just to be on the safe side.

So far these three issues have come up, so plz don't PM me if you see these happening (I am working on fixing them right now):
(1) If tables of different limits are opened and overlapping, then sometimes it will mess up and use the wrong limit's BB amount as the divisor - this cause strange amounts to be displayed rather than BB's.
(2) I been told that when sometimes new people join a table their $ is displayed at $ rather than as BB.
(3) Sometimes the amounts in the <u>lobby</u> get changed too by accident (so instead of seeing "$5/$10", you see "5" or something like this.
I think all of these are linked to the same problem, which is caused by a 'workaround' to a problem I hit developing this. I will have to try to find a better workaround /images/graemlins/smile.gif
So far no reports of bad crashes or slowdowns (the original version I had was much slower, so the new idea seems to be working better). I just gota get the three things above fixed.
Also, if it turns out to be just not doing anything at all, then plz try using my other util called AutoResizer and just check to see if it can detect the dimensions of an open table. I have a feeling the new way I am detecting party tables via the titlebar is not working on everybody's system, and this code uses the same code as AutoResizer to get table names/limit.

Hey thanks for the feedback /images/graemlins/smile.gif
It is almost working! But I come across some pretty heavy obstacles making it work 100% as I had hoped.
The good news is the methods I am using this time don't seem to be causing bad stability problems like my two previous attempts (which were so unstable on my PC I never even released them for testing). I haven't had any reports of bad crashes or slowdowns as of yet. So the alpha has at least proved this... /images/graemlins/smile.gif
Basically so long as you just <u>play a single limit</u>, it works ok (other than the odd time where it starts changing the $ values in the lobby - but this is all related to the other obstacles, so eventually this will be fixed too).
For example those who play just 2/4 or just 15/30 it is working ok for them.
<u>If you play multiple limits at the same time, then all sorts of strange stuff start happening, so I wouldn't recommend using it if you are playing multiple limits just yet.</u>
Also, until I fix the current problem I cannot yet add either SNG support nor add the 'blinder' like support. The problem I face is actually something which on the outside seems VERY trivial, but is actually a pretty hard problem underneath, and it is this which is at the root of all the reported problems with this alpha version.
I have finally got to the bottom of what is causing these problems now and now know how to solve it, but it will most likely be a few days before I get time to try fixing it (it is a pretty major bit of low level coding and will take alot of testing to be sure I have done this correctly and it will work for everybodies PCs).
I will keep this thread updated with progress and will hopefully have a new test version ready over the next few days.

So far the only thing that was a bit goofy was when I first started playing, it seemed like I had to make a full orbit before all the players bets/blinds were showing up as BBs.
BTW, I actually like that my BR (at the table) show up as BBs. I think it also helps with tilt.
jukofyork
02-18-2006, 03:58 PM
Yes, I can see this goofy behaviour might happen and all this should be fixed in the next test version. If you minimize then restore the table this should make all the values go back to BBs.

Yes, I think this idea might also help (psychologically) when moving limits.
I am looking forward to when I get the blinder like code added, as then it should be possible to hide your table BR until it say hits 12BB (me = limit player /images/graemlins/smile.gif ).
At least I know how to fix the problems now, but just need to find some time to do it (bigger job than all the rest), but will try asap. Also I will try to make the interface a little more intuitive (its a 'juk classic' atm with the messagebox which say OK - sry, most of my coding background is either research or low-level, and I am first to admit my interfaces suck! /images/graemlins/smile.gif).

Just found how to fix the problem I had and the good news is *ALL* goofiness should be gone now and it should work for multiple limits at the same time! (and SNG support and advanced blinder support should be easy now!)
I think my method has proved to be stabe enough for general posting (no crash reports so far) and should have alpha v0.02 ready for testing in a few hours! /images/graemlins/smile.gif

Ok, I am trying atm /images/graemlins/smile.gif
I have a black table mod and it took me a while to see the box you mentioned before. /images/graemlins/laugh.gif
Just a couple of quick questions about NL:
1. For SNG's I should be using the 400 from this text: "Stakes (200/400)" (I only ask because after seeing the 0.5BB for limits games I wondered if Small bets were more sensible) /images/graemlins/smile.gif
2. For NL ring games, if I divide the buy amount by 100 (eg: it says 2000NL in the title bar), then I get the size of a big blind. Is this always true, and is this what people want?

Well, I have to finally accept a partial defeat on this and need to work on other projects urgently, but will come back to this when I have more time... I thought I had finally solved the main problem, but alas I have not actually fixed it as hoped.
The new version of the test app is here (http://www.freewebs.com/jukofyork/DollarToBB_v0_02h.zip) (right click and select 'save as' if you have problems with the link) and it does appear to be fairly stable and has a better GUI than the old test version.
I have tried to fix it up as best as possible and it should no longer do strange stuff like change the $ amounts in the lobby into BBs etc, <u>BUT it is still not functioning as hoped and will do strange stuff if different limits are open at the same time</u> (this is not what I had hoped for originally... /images/graemlins/frown.gif ).
This version has an extra 'refresh' option, which will fix messed up window(s). To fix them, first select the offending window and then hit refresh and all should be displayed in BB again.
It will also work on NL and SNGs, and I also tried pretty much every game type I could see on party and all was ok. <u>BUT if you have multiple SNGs playing simultaneously (which I guess most people will do who would like to use this), then most likely each SNG will be at different blind levels and you will get the same strange stuff happening as if you try to play multiple limits at the same time</u>.
Also, the idea of an advanced blinder utility is going to be harder unless I get this final problem fixed, BUT I will try to add that to a version asap.
If it turns out I don't get much time to fix this, then I will at least add some code to make sure that all tables displayed are of the same limit, and this will avoid all of the goofy stuff it still does.
Juk /images/graemlins/smile.gif
PS: I do know that it starts displaying stuff in $'s every-time the lobby is selected, but its been a long day and this has really [censored] me off today and I will fix this asap when I add the code to force a single limit: <font color="red"><u>Windoze 1 - Juk 0</u></font> /images/graemlins/mad.gif

Might as well keep giving feedback, while you're listening:

Sry, I know there is a problem with this version (I spent all day yesterday trying to fix the multiple limits problem, but haven't found a method that works yet and this attempt is actually worse than the original I think). But, just wanted to do a quick test again before I tried to fix it up as best as I can. /images/graemlins/smile.gif
Later today I will have a version which will work so long as you only have the same limit tables open, and if it sees you have multiple tables open with different limits, it will auto-disable itself and warn the user than multiple limits is a nono atm. /images/graemlins/smile.gif
It also needs an option to turn it on/off adding too in case of emergencies.
Will have v0.03 ready in a few hours... stay tuned /images/graemlins/smile.gif

I wasn't able to test your last version (for reasons I can't remember).
Anyway, I just wanted to thank you for your efforts on this.
One suggestion (to add to your list). Is it possible to have the flop bets (and pot size) reflect a BB of the smaller flop bet and then change to full size bets on subsequent streets? If not, no big deal. I just have to keep reminding myself to pay attention to the .5 bets on the flop in regards to the actual pot size rather than forgetting it's not a full size bet.

I think I see what you mean.
You would like it to display in small-bets for the first two rounds, then start displaying in big-bets for the turn and river?
The problem I face atm is going to make this hard to do, as the problem involves knowing which amounts are to be drawn on which windows (this is why for the next test I am going to check and insist all tables are of the same limit).
When I first looked into this problem I thought there was going to be an elegant and easy solution to all this, but I have since then found this is much much harder than I first thought bc of the way windows handles itself.
I can see ways around it, but all involve much more work and also these methods might be pretty unstable. I would much rather use the simple elegant method I have atm, than risk using a more complex method which could cause all of the amounts to be disappear etc.
I am hoping to get the next test release done today (sry didn't have time yesterday....), and I think it turned out my attempt to fix the problem actually made even more goofy stuff to happen from the feedback I have so far (ie: v0.01 methods were more stable than v0.02).
I can add an option to use the small bet amount easily if this helps (so amounts will then be 1 for 1st two rounds, then 2 for turn/river), as I agree the 0.5BB is not ideal for mental division.

Will have a hopefully working version ready either later today or tomorrow depending on time.
I not 100% sure if it will work for everybody...
Try this with test version #2, just to give some feedback:
1. Start up party.
2. Start up DollarToBB
3. Open up a limit ring game.
4. Minimize the lobby.
5. Click on the table.
6. Click Refreash on DollarToBB.
7. If (6) failt to do anything, try minimizing and then restoring the table.
Any feedback will help, but the next test version will force a single limit for all tables and most of this weirdness should stop.
Can't promise how long it will take, but test version #3 will be posted here soon - Juk /images/graemlins/smile.gif

I went through the steps twice. The table does give a little blink when I hit refresh but nothing changes.
jukofyork
02-22-2006, 02:16 PM
Ok, one other thing to try is to see if v0.01 works any better. I didn't give out the link to this originally as was worried about stability, but it seems stable enough and had no bad reports:
http://www.freewebs.com/jukofyork/test_v0_01.zip
http://www.freewebs.com/jukofyork/test_v0_01.rar
- If the link not work, then try right clicking and use 'save as'.
Steps to run v0.01:
1. Open Party.
2. Run "$ -> BB.exe"
3. Don't press OK - just leave this messagebox open.
4. Open a limit ring game.
5. If nothing happens, try minimizing/restoring the table like b4.
6. Close down party <u>before</u> pressing OK on the messagebox (sry this was 1st test version - very poor interface...).
I used a different method for finding the windows in v0.01, see if this helps... Again sry for the rough and ready interface, but this version was just to test out if the idea was feasible, v0.03 should be better and hopefully work better too! /images/graemlins/smile.gif
Also, anybody else who couldn't get v0.02 to work, and not tried v0.01, plz try and see if this works for you (just be careful not to press 'OK' while party is running...).

Finally have test version # 3 ready to try - hopefully this will work and not do such goofy stuff! /images/graemlins/laugh.gif
Main link for v0.03b is here (http://www.freewebs.com/jukofyork/DollarToBB_v0_03b.zip) (right click and use 'save as' to save the zip file).
If this link fails then I have also uploaded it to the GNUHoldem file area which is here (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/gnuholdem/files/).
I have had to disable SNG support for this test version (sorry but this was causing extra problems but will try to add this back in ASAP /images/graemlins/smile.gif ), and please note it works a bit differently to the last two versions:
Once you have opened a table of a certain limit, then DollarToBB will use this limit until it is closed.
To start playing on a new limit, then exit and restart both PartyPoker and DollarToBB. If you try to play a new limit or multiple limits, the original BB amount will be used (this can be used to trick DollarToBB into using/displaying SBs rather than BBs if you open a table one limit lower than you normal play before opening tables of the limit you really wish to play).
Also, this still only works on PartyPoker (Empire and skins will be added to a later version).
Hope this works this time - Juk /images/graemlins/smile.gif

I gona give it a while, and see how this version gets on in general.
I had three attempts now and seems like it only works for about 50% of systems (and strangely some people have reported v1, v2, & v3 all working differently).
I usually give out the source for stuff I do, but I am worried this will get misused and increase the likelihood of it being banned (I tried hard to make it only do the $->BB thing, and no pot odds etc... + it could be misused for other stuff also...).
Eventually though this might be my only option, as I have tried hard to get to the bottom of why it won't work for everybody, as if 'blinder' worked before for them, their should be no reason why this isn't working and I am using the same techniques... very strange but maybe it has something to do with the new party client /images/graemlins/confused.gif
Gona give it a few more days now with this version and see what feedback I get, then decide what is best course to take - Juk /images/graemlins/smile.gif
EDIT: Another option is to try to get a few people to run some tests using another application to try to track down what is going wrong.

Awesome work Juk, most impressive.
I d/l the 0.3 version a few hours ago, and have observed a few Party tables since then - no goofiness for me here (A64, XP Pro, Party V.90) but I do not have an account @ Party - do issues only show up when actually sitting at a table?
I don't know if I should cast a vote or not without actually playing.
I have observed some limit tables, mostly NL - was really pleased to see NL working, since there has been little comment in this regard so far. I guess most here are limit players.

I absolutely agree, this would be a superb "anti scared-money" tool when moving up the levels. Myself, I can play properly at $NL25, $NL50 and usually $NL100, but if i sit at an $NL200 table I get totally thrown off my game by the bet sizes.
I am sure I am not the only SSNL player suffering from this, once you are happy with the code you should post a link in the SSNL forum, I'm sure you'd get plenty useful feedback from the NL players there if you want.

Yes and Yes, for almost all sites the max buyin is 100x BB - Absolute is an exeption I think, they offer some 200xBB games, but the sites I play (Stars, Old-Skool Party Skins, Crypto, Pacific) are all 100x BB capped buyin. If anyone else knows different, please post.

Edit: Forgot to mention this when posting - If (when /images/graemlins/smile.gif) you add support for PokerStars, you shoud contact them - email support, PM Lee Jones, and have your program added to the list of acceptable programs here (http://www.pokerstars.com/prohibited_programs.html).
PokerAce, PokerTracker, GT+ and others are explicitly listed as acceptable, whereas PokerEdge, StarSpy etc. are prohibited here. If only Party was so clear about their policies.
It may be worthy of note (to the limit player) that Poker Office is on the acceptable list - this provides real-time pot-odds, so maybe not something to worry about so much, at least where Stars is concerned.
Maybe it is worth contacting Stars before putting any effort in to adding support - I'm sure they can view what your fine program offers, and add you to the acceptable list of player-aid software if they so desire. Not that I can imagine why any site would have a problem with this software, but it never hurts to have the official OK.

Was the rar corrupted or was it that the app didn't work?
The zip and the rar have exactly the same contents, its just some people seem to be finding it hard to open my zip files, so I made a 2nd copy as a rar for those who couldn't open my zip.

Sry, just had to ask after I had so many problems with the zip files and links and ty for the feedback (either -ve or +ve feedback is very helpful) /images/graemlins/smile.gif
This is my next big task: to try to get to the bottom of why it won't work for every bodies system.
Hopefully I will get to the bottom of this soon (3rd attempt now...) - just short on time atm and have other projects pending, but will come back to this problem soon I promise /images/graemlins/smile.gif

Hopefully in the end it will work on many different sites (somebody did some tests for me and it may work on stars quite easily, but not sure about other sites yet).
Also, atm it's not working for everybody, and I hope to try to get to the bottom of this before moving onto and adding other ideas. I found from experience that adding to something which still contains unexplainable bugs usually leads to huge problems later on, so gota iron this out first! /images/graemlins/smile.gif
Hopefully I will have more time to work on this soon, and I am pretty sure it will just be a matter of time before I get chance to rethink/retry some new methods for v0.04 and see if I can get to the bottom of this.

Do you have PAHUD? maybe you could implement a feature similar to PAHUD's "Logging/Superlogging" in an effort to pin down where things are failing for the unlucky ones out there? Output pertinant variables / current task to a txt file when entering & exiting each function, etc.
People could post their logfiles if something doesn't go quite right.
Just an idea, I have no idea how you have coded this, maybe more hassle than it's worth...
Keep up the good work,

Luckily the app is much simpler than PAHUD, so no where near as hard to track this down.
I know it can only be one of three things which is failing and was planning to make a post explaining how to help me track the problem down using another free utility.
But I think logging would make this easier than me trying to explain a method like this. Its unlikely I will get time to do this for a few days, and was hoping more peeps would vote in the poll about their experiences (so far only 3:3 votes, but had alot more peeps than 6 PM me and post feedback here, so maybe the poll idea didn't work so well! /images/graemlins/smile.gif).

[/ QUOTE ]
The methods it uses are fairly low level, but the idea is pretty simple and elegant (and luckily proved stable, as this was my main fear to start with...), but I had to make decision to not open source this for two reasons:
(1) If I open source it then i fear it will instantly be adapted to do stuff like print pot odds and eventually get banned, thus losing the project for us all and undoing the time I put in so far.
(2) I also fear the same methods could be misused to do other stuff, thus again making it more likely to get banned or linked to a banned app based on the modified source.
I hoping this app can develop into something quite useful which will work on multiple sites eventually, and would also like to point out that <u>I do not ever intend to sell this and it will always be free!</u> (as with anything else I release), but my reason for keeping this closed-source is simply to protect the project from possible misuse. /images/graemlins/smile.gif
Hopefully I can get to the bottom of why some people are having problems, as in theory anybody who can use the 'blinder' utility without problems, should be able to use DollarToBB without problems, but this is currently not the case, so the logging idea sounds much easier than my 'help me debug it with tool X' idea! /images/graemlins/smile.gif

Is it possible for bet sizes to be changed on the flop to units of 1 rather than .5?
In other words on the flop the bet size is ".5" instead of 1 so its a little more difficult to compute pot odds. Can you make the bet size "1" like it is on the turn and river?

I play .50/1 and the small blind is shown as .3, presumably because it rounds the .25... is there anyway for this to be changed to .25? not a big deal though...

Yes, this has been asked for already and I will have to investigate this more to see how easily it can be added.
To do this I need to find a way to detect the current round (which I guess is fairly easy). As soon as I find a reliable method of finding which amount goes with which table/window, I can add this along with the ability to use/display different BB divisors for different limits simultaneously. As of yet, I have not found a decent way to match the amounts with the tables, and hence this is why v0.03 is forcing all tables to use the same BB amount.
Also, before adding any more I think the next test version will pretty much be the same, but will have some kind of logging ability to help track down the reason why it fails to work for a few people (its not in my nature to ever add features to code which contains a known bug in it - I learnt this the hard way many years ago...) /images/graemlins/smile.gif
Juk /images/graemlins/smile.gif
EDIT: One trick to try until I improve the code (which might make it a bit easier to do the mental divisions), is to open a table one limit lower than you normally play as soon as you start the application. Then when you play your normal limit, the amounts will be like playing $1/$2 rather than $0.5/$1. Still not sure though if this really helps, and do agree it would be nice to always use the current round bet-size as the base.
jukofyork
02-25-2006, 11:31 AM
Thanks for the feedback! /images/graemlins/smile.gif
Yes, this should not be a problem to fix and I can make it round to any # of dp (I just chose 1dp as this seemed most obvious thing to do). If/when I add the feature to display the first two rounds in small bets, then hopefully all amounts can be displayed as 0dp or 1dp depending on what you prefer.
I never envisioned that any .50/1 players would be using this, as it pretty much displays all limits with the same info as .50/1! /images/graemlins/smile.gif
One trick you might like to try (not sure how helpful it will be though), is to find a NL table or a beginners table where the BB is 0.25, open this table first, then all amounts will be displayed like 1/2 when you open 0.5/1 tables.

Create a new folder in the same directory and move all the images of chips into it. If something screws up, you can just move the images back where they came from and everything will be fine.

When playing 3-6 it doesnt seem to work like at other limits--maybe because of the 1/3rd blind structure? It lists the small blind as .3 and bing blind as .8. Then on the big betting rounds the big bet is 1.5

I can replicate this one - simply open a $2/$4 table prior to opening a $3/$6, bet sizes will be exactly as described (0.3, 0.8, 1.5). This is the most likely explaination IMHO. Version 0.3 used for my tests, and I am observing only.

Until I get time to look into this more, then plz remember that the BB amount use for the division is based on the first table you open. The BB amount used cannot be changed without restating both party and DollarToBB. Hopefully this won't be forever (v0.01 and v0.02 both had different failed methods of trying to solve this problem...), but atm I just want to make sure it works OK for everybody before trying to add anything new.

I agree and think this idea is definitely much better than all the 0.5's that it currently displays. Hopefully I will be able to add this at the same time as I fix the problem with multiple limits all having to use the same divisor.
I guess for NL people would still want all streets to still use the same divisor and I should keep this option configurable?

I think possibly it would be more helpful to NL players if it allowed somehow the bet amounts to be entered in BBs (but I honestly not looked this far yet, and this may be impossible or very hard to implement). I never really thought NL players would use this until somebody posted in this thread about how it helped them play higher limits less scared.
I also hope to make it so the Call/Raise buttons display the amounts in BB eventually, but again not sure how much use this (I personally never look at the button amounts - only the table's state).

Well the app has helped me a lot already, I added another table because its much easier now that I don't have to convert odd dollar amounts in my head. As an option for the future to consider, it would be cool if there was also a rolling count of the pot size (in bets of course) so there is no need for on the fly calculation when the bets get fast & wild.

YES!! This would, in fact be THE most valuable additional feature that would help ALL (Limit and NL) players.
The whole reason for converting pot size to Bets is to figure your pot odds, and your current odds are ALWAYS the size of the bet you must call vs the size of the pot from the previous betting round plus the bets in the current round.
At least one site other than Party where I play already displays this number (expressed in $) as "all bets" and it is sooo helpful.
IMHO this is much more important than buttons, small vs big bets, etc.

I will look into this, and just thinking how I can add this. Possibly it can be added as a extra value displayed somewhere, or I could remove the display of side pots and just display the total in the pot in its place.
I still have not found a satisfactory method to solve the problems I had in v0.01 and v0.02 yet (ie: which table has which amount going to it), but as soon as I solve this, then this feature will be quite easy to add.

Yes, it would be very easy to count the whole pot, and the bet amounts (on all stages) in small bets rather than big bets. This way it would be like playing 1/2 rather than .5/1 as it is at the moment.
I just haven't had a great deal of time to look at this program again, but I should be able to add this option very easily and will do when I add the logging support for the next version.

It is written in C++, but in theory could be written in other languages just as easily. The reason I am not giving away the source code (as I have with everything else I've given away here), is because:
(1) The methods used could be badly misused to make a particularly nasty type of Trojan, capable of circumventing the "average user's" fire wall protection, and I would not like to be responsible for that. If a <u>serious</u> developer is interested in extending the code then I am happy to explain the methods used to them.
(2) Also if people start adding extra features to it, other than purely displaying the amounts in big bets (see your next point below), then it will likely be banned. As it is I do not think Party Poker will have a problem with it, as I do not think it really gives an "unfair advantage".
[ QUOTE ]
aaand isnt it possible to calculate the pot odds and draw it directly on the top of the table or something?
[/ QUOTE ]
Yes, but I think this will likely cause it to be banned quickly. This has already been discussed in this thread several times. /images/graemlins/smile.gif

ah and one more : if you could "convert" it, so that it works on pokerstars in the same way.. that would be outstanding great
[/ QUOTE ]
Yes, somebody has already looked into whether Stars uses the same methods to display the amounts as Party Poker and it appears they do. When I get time I will look into this, and see which other sites it may work for eventually as well.
At the moment though, the biggest task ahead is to make it work while you are playing multiple limits (this is a quite a significant bit of coding to get this working). /images/graemlins/smile.gif
The main problem at this current time, is the fact that it doesn't work on some people's systems and in the next version this will be the problem I will be tackling most of all by adding some kind of logging support to try to track down the problem (I may add a few other test ideas though, such as displaying using a different base to divide by, etc).

I'd like to minimize to the tray.
[/ QUOTE ]
Yes, I think most of my apps need to minimise the tray, but I just never get round to doing it (I will in the end though I promise! - it is actually very easy to do...).
Until I do at this though, you could try looking for an application called "Tray-it" (for some strange reason my Google isn't working today, so I can't find the link...). I think it is free if I remember right and it will let you minimise any application to the system tray (just make sure you allow Process Guard and/or Snoop Free to let it hook stuff).
[ QUOTE ]
P.S. Today's my first time using the app. It's suprisingly freeing. I had no idea I worked so hard on division.
[/ QUOTE ]
I haven't personally used it very much yet, but I can see it could be very helpful for some people (possible 3/6 is hardest?). I tend to build up a kind of mental "look-up table" and in practice do very few actual divisions (five years of teaching maths though, so maybe this is different for me...) /images/graemlins/smile.gif
I think I would be much more likely to use it though if it were able to work with different limits simultaneously (which I had originally hoped it would, but it now turns out to be much more work to get it to do that). Hopefully I will get this functionality added soon too, and then may use it myself more... /images/graemlins/smile.gif

I am quite likely to take a look pretty soon, as I am considering making my own super-fast DB free HUD which will need to use the same methods and also I am likely to be wanting to use it to be able to play multiple limits very soon myself.
I just finished the [censored] never ending March forward bonus tonight, so I think the next two days I am gonna have a rest from poker and concentrate on fixing up some of my poker utils.
The reason this project turned out to take longer and I had to put on hold, was because of the fact I couldn't find a decent (easy) way to match the amounts to the windows, but I do know how I can do it by using a much more complex method and will look into this now.
After this is fixed then this will allow multiple limit support, SNG support, and a whole host of other stuff to be added very easily, but the bet unit of 1 depends on me also finding a way to detect the game stage (but hopefully this shouldn't be too hard).

Had a rest from poker today and so far fixed up two of my freeware utils, so doing well atm! /images/graemlins/smile.gif
This is a biggie to fix though, but when I get it done then pretty much everything else will be easy to add to DolarToBB (SNG support included).
Juk /images/graemlins/smile.gif
EDIT: I do have a version which works for a single SNG at a time, but I am guessing this is not so useful? It's the figuring which amount goes with which table that's slowing me down and SNG are just like playing multiple limits where every table has different BB amounts...
EDIT: One good piece of news is that the reason it's not working for some people is not my code injection method (as the PartyPopupBuster code uses the same code exactly to inject the dlls). I think it is something to do with my API hooking and I have the wrong API calls hooked for some people (this would explain why Amir's Blinder works for everybody, yet DollarToBB doesn't...) I am guessing, but not sure, that it is region/country specific problem - hopefully will get this figured out soon...

I am sorry it has taken me so long to get round to fixing up DollarToBB, but I just haven't had that much time recently and of all my little helper utils for poker, this needs the most work putting in to move it onto the next stage. When I reshosted it, then I noticed the download count is in the 100's just for March, so I am assuming it has been pretty well tested by a few hundred people now, and I haven't had any reports of instability or crashes yet (which I most feared at the start...). /images/graemlins/smile.gif
The reason I am making this post is to try to make a start at getting to the bottom of why it won't work for some people. I know I ran a poll a while back, but since then I have re-used the same code for the PartyPopupBuster util and got somebody who couldn't get DollarToBB to work to test it. PartyPopupBuster worked fine for this person and so did Amir's Blinder, so this leads me to believe this may be something related to the (Unicode) character sets in different countries and nothing to do with my actual hooking mechanism.
It could be pretty easy to fix and I will look into trying to hook a slightly higher level text drawing function to see if I can get round this problem.
In the meantime, could <u>anybody who can't get DollarToBB to work please just make a followup post here just saying which country you come from, and what character set you are using (if you know it)</u>. This will also help me PM these specific people if I need them to try out any fixes. /images/graemlins/smile.gif
Hopefully I will get time soon to look at DollarToBB and sorry again that it has taken me so long. /images/graemlins/smile.gif

Really it just boils down to one bit of code that needs writing very carefully, and then there should be a whole "flood" of new features after I get that bit going.

Yes, this will be quite easy to add. Even in it's current state, it will be possible to just use a different divisor and hence make it appear as though you are playing a lower limit.

I don't know if this software still gets updated, but I would like to ask for just a minor change, Dollar to SB, that's all.
I could do it myself if the source code was available.

my english is not the best, but maybe someone can help me.
when i use the program the table displays not the BB but the amount in $ without the $ sign.
is this the sense of the program or did i make something wrong?
thanks for your help

aggro: If you are playing $0.50/$1.00, this should be the case.

Same here. It was working fine a few weeks ago but now it seems to just get rid of the $ sign.

I know /images/graemlins/blush.gif It just seems like I never have time to do alot of the stuff I plan to do. I'm just about to move house, so likly that will be a time zapper for a week or two.
But (I promise!), I am planning to spend a few days improving Dollar2BB (multilimit, SNGs, new GUI) and FPHG soonish (GUI, FAQ, new grabbing method, etc).
The new features of D2BB will help me also, as I've now started playing more and more SNGs, and being able to see stacks in terms of BB will be a huge help.

Not yet, sorry. I'm thinking seriously about open sourcing what I have, but just trying to find a safe way to do it. After moving and getting settled in, I should have much more free time and can take a look at improving D2BB again.

Not in the near future, but possibly (ie: when the poker situation is clearer with regards to the new US laws).

I've fixed D2BB to work again after the last Party update broke it. See: http://www.jukofyork.com/poker.htm for v0.04 (about 1/2 way down the page).

I'm not sure, but perhaps it's broken for XP too atm? I haven't looked at the code since they added the commas to the numbers so it could well just be broken.
If FPHG works for Vista then Dollar2BB should also work using the same "trick" (sorry I don't have a copy of Vista, so not sure what the trick is I'm afraid).
I'll try and take a look at updating Dollar2BB soonish and see if it still works and/or fix it if it doesn't.

I'm not really sure and I'm surprised it still works with XP as I never did any update after they added the comma separated numbers - can anybody else confirm that it's still working?
As far as for Vista goes then without Vista myself it's almost impossible to test. I guess somewhere it might be using some deprecated 32bit function, but it will have to wait until I get a copy of Vista to compile/test it on.
If you read in the FPHG thread then it seems that their is some "trick" to make FPHG work in Vista which involves running Party+FPHG as "administrator", but again not having Vista means I can't really tell you any more than what I have read - it might be worth trying this for Dollar2BB also.

Dollar2BB is just one of those things I never seem to get much time to work on. For a start to make it work on multiple tables would take several entire days of coding/testing and secondly it doesn't really seem to get used by that many people. If I ever get it working properly for Party then adding support for other sites isn't really that hard (as they all basically use the same method to display the text).
As far as a Party update then I may have thought of an easy way to get it working over multiple tables based on the fact that Party displays the Hand # in the top right of each table, but so far I haven't had time to try my idea out.

What level did you try it at and do you have the "decimal commas" so numbers are formatted like "1,000,000", etc?
I think it will prolly still work so long as you never have pots > $1k or try to use it in tourneys. I'll fix that sometime soon.
