HH Converter test thread...

[Nikita]

I like all those suggestions you made TP, I will second them.

Better?

Looks MUCH better to me.

Here's one more pass for you:


Also, did you code in logic for chopped pots, etc?

It's getting pretty close now.

[de-coder]

Here's the latest output.

I've corrected the player order at the top - SB first.
Fixed the preflop line and added hero's cards there.
The other known cards (mucked or shown) are displayed at the end.
I think split pots are working properly now.
I'm not worried about specifying why one hand may win over another - the only reason would be a lower kicker. At PS they only indicate a lower kicker during showdown, not sure how the other sites handle that...

I think this is perfect.

here's another example, a split pot - and a really fucked up hand too...

This is looking REALLY good now.

The only suggestion I have is to lose the ":" after all the actions postflop, to match preflop. ie:

Flop: 8 7 A ($5)
SB checks
HERO bets $4 ($9)
UTG calls $4 ($13)
CO folds
Button folds
SB folds

Turn: 8 7 A 7 ($13)
HERO bets $12 ($25)
UTG calls $12 ($37)

River: 8 7 A 7 9 ($37)
HERO checks
UTG checks


That is one very nice looking HH right there. Thank you so much.

The newest version is up. Looking forward to running some Full Tilt hands through soon.

[Talking Poker]

Oh, and I'm probably going to reformat the index file to fit into the rest of the TP site, like this page, for example (assuming I can get it to fit and look pretty):


But that's just silly front end stuff.

[Boobie Lover]

I like the latest converter a lot.

[Talking Poker]

Yeah, me too. I think it's just about perfect now, honestly (see very minor tweaks suggested above). It's clean and simple and IMO the esiest to read HH I've ever seen.

And that makes me happy.

Once we're Full Tilt capable (since that's where 98% of my play is these days), I'll be using this for all of my posted HHs. I hope you guys will too. If we all get used to a standard output format, regardless of the input format (maybe we can bribe (+Rep) de-coder to add support for UB and other sites too!), it will be much, much, much easier to quickly read and respond to posted HHs.

[de-coder]

done. That was an easy one...

Once I'm sure that we don't require changes to the generated xml I can really get to work on full tilt. I'm pretty sure we're there, I don't think any more information is required and I've got the split pot working. The only thing I might lose at this point is if someone posts a dead blind... I haven't found a hand with that case so I haven't been able to test it - at worst that would affect the pot amount by a SB+BB...

[Talking Poker]

Have you tested antes with the most recent changes? If so, I think we're good to go.

[melioris]

much easier on the eyes. I likey....

Overall the look of this converter is nice. Good job Decoder and TP.

1 suggestion if I may:

Would be nice if we had the option of saving the hand history and it's comments. One of the reasons why I like pokerhand.org. I sometimes don't care to go online, but want to review a few HH or their comments. For this reason, a few months ago, I created a folder which I added to my desktop, named TPFHH.

I copy/saved a few informative HH which I basically use to review and study on my own time.

Too tedious to try to look through the many HH threads in the HSIHPT or Hand Discussion threads, to find the one which caught my attention or explained something important.

Just a thought, but if it cannot be intergrated within the converter, maybe it could be set as a Save Hand History option on either UserCP or better yet; a FAV icon placed next to the rep icon for easier access.
