Giving back to HU Forum: HUSNG Analysis Software

[Nichomacheo]

I'm writing software at the moment that I plan to use to analyze my game play. I would like to make it publicly available and I want the forum's input.

The software will let you review your PokerStars Heads Up SNGs hand by hand, letting you see where the key hands are, what the odds were at specific points and more.



At the moment the software is very simple. It lets you select a hand history file and then look through the hands. You can also back up to certain points in the hand and see what the relevant information was at that point.

Here's my todo list:
1. Make hole cards optional (currently they are not on there at all -- this is a simple fix though). I want there to be an option because I plan to spend a lot of time analyzing my range of hands.
2. Stack sizes -- make an option to convert to BB
3. Show the % of stack each player has comitted
4. Show the affect of different bets/raises on the stack size
5. Show the pot odds and break event percentage
6. Overall statistics for that game. I need your advice here because I dont know whats useful. I imagine something like overall aggression, or aggression by street, or PFR, or limps, or % 3bets, or whatever. Whats good?
7. You decide.

Also -- any advice on the interface/gui I have so far?

Let me know! I'm here to customize it for the HU forum's needs.

Maybe some simple filters, like filtering the hands where the
pot size exceeded x amount, or hands that went to showdown. Looks like a great program. I'll be looking forward to trying it out!

So you're saying that rather than go through all 54 hands in this case, you'd only look at the ones where the final pot size > X? Along the same lines I could make a filter for only SN or only BB play etc etc; I like that idea.

Another cool feature would be a sort of hand navigator. Currently the only identification that hands have is a number (i.e hand 10/54). It would be useful to have a panel that lists all the hands (and maybe color codes them as wins/losses).

Ex:

HH 23/08/07
-KsKd
-7s6s
-8h4c
-6s6c
-...

Not that important, but could be useful for longer matches.

nicho,

this is very interesting but i can't really think of many suggestions. i think the things on your to-do list are very good and while i probably won't pay for software like this, it sounds pretty sweet!

holla,

Good idea dippy.

It would be absolutely free.

That's the link (I believe) that cwar posted in the LC thread a month or two ago. I like that program, you might want to check that out. I can't really think of anything off the top of my head, as I don't mind just looking at HHs in plain form, but I'll be sure to add a comment or two if I can.

Good work so far though.

Nicho, I've been looking for a kind of hand replayer, that replays entire SnG's or Cash game sessions from your PT database. Is this within the realm of possibilities? If there's one already out there someone please show me a link, thanks.
