HH converters

[Talking Poker]

I think a stand alone script would be the way to go.

As for this being a good tool for datamining, do you really think the couple dozen hands or so per day that people enter into it would be more worthwhile than opening up 16 tables at once (per computer) and datamining 1600 hands PER HOUR??? Come on.

Regardless, I'd love to see what you can come up with... If you want to see the format I'd like to see, I can grab a full HH and reformat it how I think would be best.

If you can get me HH files from the various sites you want to support (I think some sites use different formats and I only play at a couple of places...) and an output format that will get me started.

What would you like to call each position? I see things like MP21 and stuff for full ring games - there must be a better way.

I'll draw up some basic "specs" for you later tonight (and hopefully people will give a lot more inpot into this thread about EXACTLY what they would like to see), but for the positions, I'm thinking:

6 max:
SB
BB
UTG
MP
CO
Button

For full games, we would add:
UTG+1 (between UTG and MP)

and then either convert MP to:
MP1
MP2
MP3

or even add in:
CO-1 instead of MP3. Something like that.

Thoughts? Anyone? Anyone?

Also, I'd be perfectly happy is this started off simple and we expand on it with future revisions (I'm a fairly smart guy and might even be able to do a lot of that myself). But to start, I'd like to see support for:
1. Full Tilt
2. Poker Stars

-Both cash games and tourneys.

That's probably 90% of the hands people post here anyway, these days, but we could add in other sites down the road...

Ultimate Bet would probably be a good idea. I've seen a few hands posted from there recently, and I play there a bit.

Why recreate the wheel?

I use for Full Tilt.

works for most others.

I'm sure there are a few others that people like.

[Talking Poker]

Definitely. Those are BY FAR the worst to read unconverted, IMO.

Any progress with this, de-coder?
