The section “Board Texture” is designed for setting “Board Structure”

pt_filters_6

Here you can set up how the board was looking on Flop, Turn and River. You can chose when the board was paired or not, and more others. For our example, let’s choose the situation when there was “9” on the board like the highest card. For this in “Board Cards” we choose “Flop”, set up “ON” for “Middle Cards” and “Wheel Cards” and make checked for each “Two or more”. Also, in our filter, besides “2”, “3”, “4”, “5” cards form “Wheel Cards”, hits “Ace”, which isn’t need for us. Let’s remove “Ace”. For this we’ll create one more filter. For this let’s go to “Board Cards”, choose “Flop” and in section “Flop Contains At Leas One” make click on “A”. Press “Add to Filter”. The following window will appear.

pt_filters_9

There are Aces on the flop in our filter. To remove them, make click on our last filter, and press “NOT Selected”. Then press “Add Filter”. Ready.

For example, one part of stats can display always, other part only when the mouse is over on the given area. You can tune this slightly to the right in “Group Properties”, in “Display Type”. Also, you can rename “Stats Group”, for whom it will be displayed: “Everyone”, “Everyone But Hero”, “Hero Only” or “Table Averages”.

pt_hud_6

Also you can go to “Color Ranges” tab and tune color ranges for each stat.

pt_hud_7

As you can see, some settings are repeated and the same things you can make different ways. It seems excessive, but it is done for convenience. When you will create complex HUS, you will appreciate it.

To add new stat in HUD press “+” button and choose “Add Statistic”:

pt_hud_8

In the popup window you can choose a stat for adding from all existing stats in your Poker Tracker 4:

As well you can add the text with “Add Text” button, “Note Editor”, which is already on the first place in the stats list. “Add Horizontal Separator Line”, “Add New Line” add an empty line and a new line for stats respectively.

In the bottom right part of the screen you can see visual display of our HUD. It is helpful to understand what happens with our HUD after our changes without opening “Replayer” once again.

We dealt with HUDs, now let’s move on to Popups settings. For this press “Popup Groups” tab in the top right part of the screen.

pt_hud_10

If you look closely, this window is not different from the previous one. Now, as “Stats Groups” act “Popups”. Popup it is huge “Stat Group”. The only difference is several removed fields in the “Item Properties”.

“Positional Popups” is the last tab in this section.

In the popup window all settings are divided into several sections.

pt_hud_12

In “General Settings” in “General” Tab you can set up various filters such as “Minimum Hands Requered” and set minimal amount of samples, “Stats From Current Cash Stake Only”, “Stats From Current Bet Type Only”, “Retrieve Session Stats for Tooltips”.

In “Mucked Cards” section you can set up mucked cards visibility, display time and opacity.

“Tournament Stacks” section is designed for strict display of stats for certain stack. Depending on the type and speed of the tournament, different values may be convenient for the same size of stack. Play with dropdown menus and adjust them as you think it is more logical.

“Refresh Rates”. This section is required only for custom stats.

In “Profile Select” tab, for each “Site”, “Limit”, “Speed”, “Game”, “Seats”, you can set up your own profile. For sure, you already use different HUDs for cash and tournaments games. But, for example, for “MTT”, “SnG” and “Spin and go” we need completely different HUDs. Here you can set up it in “Cash” tab.

pt_hud_14

Tab “T” will move you to tournaments settings.

pt_hud_15

Tournament Section

Tournament Section

“View Stats” tab also is used for the analysis of the tournaments games, which we have previously considered. If you have not read this part, read it, because everything is very similar. Instead of “$” tab we have to use “T” tab.

pt_tournaments_1

Let’s look at the differences between Cash and Tournaments games.

On the left side there are new filtering capabilities, such as “Tournament Type” where you can choose “Single Table (STT)”, “Multi Table(MTT)” or all tournaments. You can choose “Flags”: “SnG”, “DON”, “Bounty”, “Shootout”, “Rebuy”, “Fifty50” and others.

pt_tournaments_3

Let’s select the report “Overview” and consider it. Also, I put “Single Table (STT)”. In the right part of the screen “Tournament”, “Places” and “Hands” tabs are available.

pt_tournaments_4

“Tournament” tab is useful to tack “ROI %”, “ITM %”, and “My C Net Won ($)”. This is a very important for the tournament players of all tournament types. “Places” tab is comfortable for “SnG” players, you can see the distribution of prizes. In “MTT” it’s not so important, because it’s very small data retrieval of samples.

pt_tournaments_5

Tab “Statistics” differs from “Result” by the absence of the “Edit Tournament Results” in the left part of the screen.

 

pt_tournaments_6

“My Reports” Tab is designed for creating own filters, but it is beyond the scope of our review.

pt_tournaments_8

Tab “Graphs” is designed for even more graph settings.

pt_tournaments_7
