Re: The Hand Converter Thread.
I've been working on the converter this weekend, so I thought it was time for me to restate the known issues:
KNOWN ISSUES 1/29/05 (in rough order of how much I care about them)
0. Eurobet ugly little [Fold, Call, Raise] thing.
Yeah. Forgot about that. FIXED
1. Pokerroom HE hand histories.
Sometime in the last two months, pokerroom changed formats, breaking converter support. I have examples and an account. This is top priority.
2. Prima and Crypto Site support.
Are Prima and Crypto the same thing? I have a sufficient number of hand histories to add crypto HE ring games. The delay is entirely mine. I haven't coded it yet. I hope to do so soon.
3. Party/Affiliate Omaha Hands.
There is a known problem with the results processor for Party O/hi and O/8 hands. I did not properly take the sheer number of hand combinations into account. Once Omaha has been fixed, I will move on to Party stud, with the knowledge that a working results processor will let me fix Stud/8 in one fell swoop. This should also fix any other wierd results problems (splits when one should win etc.)
4. Party/Affiliate Stud and Stud/8 Hands.
Emailed hands are not converting properly. On-disk hands will not convert properly until Party includes all upcards. Working on e-mailed hands.
5. Party All-ins.
Party is pretty f[/i]ucking sloppy with its all-ins. It's really annoying. I may have to make the process that converts all the action in the hand deduce all-ins from stack sizes and betting action, instead of trusting the sites to provide accurate actions. This will have the side effect of making #5 easier to compute.
5. Rake.
This is a longtime request, put forth most vocally by GoT. Rake in a single-pot situation is not problematic, but every time I've tried to incorporate it into sidepots and stuff my hair catches on fire and I am distracted.
6. Paradise history problems.
General problems, private problems, sergeant problems? I don't know. Apparently paradise is also giving all-in fits.
7. Tourney antes.
Nuff said.
8. Be able to output a generic standard HH for all input sites.
9. Allow easy conversion of observed hands.
Yep.
10. Multiple Hand histories to convert at once.
Possible, low priority, will have to be implemented site by site, so expect party to come first and then others later as people complain. Do not expect party to come soon.
Okay, that's it for tonight.
