I want to buy Hand History data

[bziegler2]

Sam - does that mean you don't mind sending me your hands? [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

To sweeten the deal, I can give you a free copy of PokerManager (www.pokermgr.com).

Mike - I sent you a PM with a free lifetime license key for PokerManager, as well as some instructions for how to do the anonymous export. Let me know how it goes.

I'm actually really curious how you do an anonymous export. Does it not give the hand number? How do you ensure you don't get dupes?

Here's what it looks like (see below). Note that the player names and game #'s are "scrubbed" with generic names/numbers.

[/ QUOTE ]You remove all identification on all players? How do you possibly track this? How is this data useful? If you can't even remember what players did on previous hands, individual datapoints seem real useless.

For instance, if you have 50k hands on me, you can see how often I steel the blinds. If you have 50k hands like this, you'll just have a hand that reads "Once upon a time, somebody stole the blinds."

But if I have 50k hands on the same "somebody", I can make a generic model. And if I have lots of those models, I can put a new player into one of those models.

How much $ are you willing to pay for such data?

For 25k+ hands I can give you a free lifetime license to PokerManager (www.pokermgr.com).
