Ongame and Everest import problems

[Guenthi]

Hi,

I just installed the trial version of Holdem Manager (1.09 beta 26) and discovered two bugs.

1) I play MTTs at Betsson (Ongame). Yesterday after playing a tournament, in the Data View I found entries for two tournaments, one with tourney id 3534386, the other one with tourney id 3534370.

In the hand history there were the following lines:

***** History for hand T5-3534386-34 (TOURNAMENT: O-3246-1) *****
Start hand: Mon Aug 24 19:38:23 GMT+0200 2009
Table: Table #34 [3534386] (NO_LIMIT TEXAS_HOLDEM 40/80, TC)
...

After this hand I was moved to another table:

***** History for hand T5-3534370-29 (TOURNAMENT: O-3246-1) *****
Start hand: Mon Aug 24 19:41:42 GMT+0200 2009
Table: Table #50 [3534370] (NO_LIMIT TEXAS_HOLDEM 40/80, TC)
...

3534386 and 3534370 are parts of the IDs of the hands. The ID of the tournament, however, that should be used by the import program is O-3246-1.

2) After playing a tournament at Everest, the entry in the Data View said that I won 2304.00 $ (I really would have liked that but the tourney had a buy-in of $ 2.20 and 44 players (plus $ 200 added cash by Everest).

In the hand history I found this line:

<PRIZE name="Guenthi" place="5" prize="$23,04"/>

In German speaking countries (I am from Austria) the decimal point is no point but a comma. The Everest Software uses the decimal comma but the Holdem Manager import program does not recognize this.

Best regards,
Guenthi

Your poker client needs to be in English and so do the Hand Histories.

also try updating to beta 28. That new tourney when moving tables issue, was taken care of recently I believe.

I am not convinced that the reason of the decimal comma is the German version of the Everest software. The hand history is in English, or else the relevant line would be something like:

<PREIS name="Guenthi" platz="5" preis="$23,04"/>

I assume that the Everest client queries the Windows system settings and uses the character that is defined there as decimal point.

Holdem Manager, however, cannot use the Windows settings, because the imported hand history files could originate from other computers as well. But there is a very simple solution: after extracting the $ amount from the "prize" line the import program could check, if the last non-number-character is a point or a comma. If it's a comma, just change it to a point and continue with the usual processing. I think it would take a programmer not more than two minutes to implement this.

Regarding the Betsson tourney ID problem, I will install the latest beta this evening and try it out.

Please www.7zip.org the hands and email them to fabio@holdemmanager.net, with a link to this thread, and your forum name.

I sent the Everest hand history to Fabio.

Regarding the Betsson multi table tournament problem, this bug has not been fixed in Beta 28. Whenever I am moved to a new table, still a new tournament is added to the Tourney Data View, as the import program does not use the correct tourney ID.

I will forward that bug as well.
