More Feature Requests

[TrustySam]

Hi, you know the luck bell curve ... I thought it might be fun to have a line for coin flips too (in addition to flushes, sets, and straights) if one could be added in some way.

Also, somebody asked for this before, but would it be possible to add a column that shows opponents' hole cards as well as ours (when showing statistics, results) - it helps when searching for hands, and also it's cumbersome to otherwise have to click on the hand, and have to scan through the history to find the info. I think this would be quite popular (moreso than some of the other stats, like if you can only show so many to save memory.

Another feature request - would it be possible to up the default of 'last 100 hands' to perhaps the 'last 1000 hands'? I know it would slow down the program because it would take more memory, but 100 hands is hardly anything, and sometimes you want to be able to scan your general play for the sitting, not just look at the last couple of hands.

Thanks for listening! :)

I will pass on your bell curve request - that's an interesting idea but I'm not sure how practical it would be.

I would not expect it to be possible to add opponents' cards to Hand reports - the way the database is structured retrieving that kind of information is pretty complicated.

I would also not expect the default setting for last X hands to be changed - I believe it is reset deliberately to avoid delays in large reports. You should only need to change it once when you first start viewing reports, though.

Oh, okay cool! Thx :)

This answer didn't make technical sense when you said it, but that was because I thought you had a programming background at the time.

Opponent hole card data, when available, is listed right in the hand history - to get it to show, it'd just need to be assigned a variable name, if it's not already.


I guess you meant to say that somebody up top has decided that it's not important enough to add. But the crux of my whole request was that maybe it's more useful than the team might realize. As before, with the custom lock feature.

I mean like it's up to you guys.

When you view a report showing individual hands the hand history text isn't used, so the data can't just be read like that.
When opponents' hole cards are known they are stored in the database of course, but they are connected to the player who had them, not "you" (or any other player in the hand). It is possible to retrieve them, but it would add complexity and time to the database query, and make the structure of reports much less flexible. Also, there is more than one opponent in a hand, which could cause issues too.
We understand that it would be useful, and it may be something we are able to do at some point in the future, but I wouldn't expect it any time soon.
