Re: seperate datebases for different sites
Because if you use several databases for several sites, you will inevitably import hands in the wrong database at some point. If you have 10 databases for different sites and different limits you'll go crazy. It's also pretty much useless ... in PT you can specify you only want to see stats from limit x and site y ...
All my hands are in the same database.
As for observed hands, I put them in a separate database. For 2 reasons. First, those hands won't slow down PT when I look at my own stats since they are in a separate Db. Also, because I want to be able to delete old observed hands after a while. After a year or so, the observed hands are pretty much useless ... I won't see the same players and if I do, they will play differently. If the observed hands are in 'your' database, you'll have a hard time to delete old observed hands ...
So I create a new observed database every quarter.
2006-Q1
2006-Q2
2006-Q3
2006-Q4
When I create 2007-Q1, I will delete 2006-Q1
