Hi - how do i track tables that I am not playing at in MTTs?

I open other tables when im playing MTTs and no stats come up. Is HEM tracking those tables but just not putting the stats up or is it not tracking them at all? How do I track the other tables?

thanks

Most sites do not allow you to datamine hands from tables you are observing. Some sites allow us to pre-fetch hud statistics from our DB, but this is typically used for seat/table selection in cash games, and we can only grab 1 - 5 hands.

i wouldnt have thought it is 'datamining' when you are playing the same tournament as other players, and you just want to get stats on them before they join your table e.g. when theres 2 tables left in a MTT and you are about to go to the final table.

so its impossible to import their stats prior to being on their table then?

Datamining is the act of collecting hand histories from tables you are not playing at. That is not allowed at FTP or Stars.
