I"ve seen the previous hand replayer, but can someone please tell me how to get Hand histories?

Sir, Sir, Sir, I know this one.

Select the tourney you want.  The hand histories don"t seem to hang around for much more than 24hrs though.

thanks Leigh. Next question - how do you print them off?(or convert them for PHA boards). They only appear to be videos

Hmmm, good question.  Don"t know, but I will ask, unless someone else on here has the solution ?

I know there"s an option to save them to your PC somewhere in the settings but I don"t know how long they stay. I can"t think of any reason why they would "auto-delete" from there.

EDIT: Setting - Game Settings...but it"s not on by default and you get to select how many days you want to keep them. Set it to 9999 and it"ll probably be enough

RE-EDIT: Are they videos...that seems unnecessarily data intense. I"ll have to turn on the option and check.

RE-RE-EDIT: Nope...Text file.

RE-RE-RE-EDIT. Found this on the 888 forum.

The stages of converting text hand histories

Firstly you need to check you are saving your hand histories, go to lobby and click on settings, then hand history, a window will appear, make sure you have checked the "save my hand histories" box, you will see a folder destination, click open folder and you will go to your hand history folder, now double click on the folder that appears, as long as you have been saving them you will see history files, find the file for the game you want and double click it, when the file opens you will see lines of text, the text is continuous and you will have to read through until you find the hand you want, this gets easier once you get used to it, once you have found the hand left click at the start of the hand and highlight the whole hand, now right click and copy

Now you need a hand converter

I use http://www.handhistoryconverter.com/

When you open the site you will see a box on the left side to convert the hand, right click in this box and select paste, now scroll down and click "convert hand" after a short while the page will refresh and the converted hand will appear, highlight the hand then right click and copy, you are done

888 is hard to play on a laptop, need a mouse lol, done a few miss clicks. This has probably been answered before, but is there no time bank??

Apparently not. Sucks donkey balls. Especially as timer is short anyway.

Also had major issues with typing in amounts where it"s decided 220 out of 1780 equals all-in. Need to be very careful especially when multi-tabling.

Most annoying thing though is the 6 max tables pay 3 players. Makes them pointless!

[PantsMan]

Nice to know i can run like Stephen Hawking on both Stars and this site now though. Kings into Aces, Queens into Kings, Jacks into Tens and he binks a ten. Bye bye $80. Awesome start.

there is a time bank.  i"ve used it in ring games for sure.

[PantsMan]

How do you use it? Can"t see it anywhere, timer goes down, Fold.

[Cyntaf]

Within table settings, There is an option to set timebank to kick in Auto or manually. Click radio button for auto.

 Thanks, ill look into this time bank settings. Wouldnt wanna play more than 2 tables if you cant have a time bank.
And i agree with you andy about the betting. The slider moved up in ratios of the BB for me which is normal pre flop i guess (maybe you can fix this somewhere), but i found it so hard to caculate open raises of 2.5x and for 3 bets also. Typing it in the box was a pain especially as the clock ran down so quickly.

With the online season approaching, wouldn"t it be nice if the tournament breaks were synchronised...

[Foggy]

Got to say as a smoker the syncronized breaks are always well recieved ( and before anyone asks, my house is a smoke free zone) in practice for the fresh air in all casinos...............liar, the wife doesnt like it

[gareth888]

APAT tournaments should have sync breaks.

Sync breaks are not quite active yet on all tours as we are waiting for most players to have latest version where all this was supported. We"ll turn it on for everything in a week or two.

Also the next version, (May), will have a heap of cool never-seen-before features, and also will have better hand history.

Btw, if you have VERY old 888 or pacific client, it may not have upgraded when you launched it. Can download latest version direct from www.888poker.com
