Cake Poker is not on that list. Can I use HEM with Cake?

Weve just added cake support in the latest Beta http://www.holdemmanager.com/downloads/HmBetaUpdate.exe However this is only for hands played post 5th May for the moment and since its the 1st beta it will probably take a while to work out the kinks

I've just bought and installed the Hold'em Manager small stakes version after successfully using it at Pokerstars during the 15 day trial. Now I am playing at Cake, and upon importanting the hand history folder the hands are not being recognized.

Is there anything I can do to hold'em manager to import the hands to for the HUD to work?
-thanks

Are the kinks worked out on this? With the beta update can you import hands after May 5th to HEM and how?

Since were still in beta it may take a while to iron out the kinks however it should import most post 5th may hands

I searched for a HUD that worked on cake and discovered that using one is against their terms of service and it is not allowed.

I am completely fine with this IF it is true that no other HUDs work but I wouldn't want someone else having the use of one against me if I didn't have it as well. Does anyone know if cake is in fact HUD free?

hands from some tournament at cake was imported as a cash, i want to delete it but when i go to "purge hands" and mark stakes that were imported, after deleting it shows me "0 hands deleted" and they are still in there in HM... how to delete it?

It worked for my first session I played yesterday just fine, although it did not import the player information on my opponents.

For some reason it didn't work properly for the session I just played though. It got some info right like the session length but the other data is really messed up.

Load the hands in the Hands TAB, in the bottom pane change it from last 100 to All then left click any hand, then right click and choose delete all from hands list

We fixed a few cake bugs with date formatting etc that caused import problems in this version so try that http://www.holdemmanager.com/downloads/HmBetaUpdate.exe

Ok thanks I'll give it a try.

It imported the hands but they aren't showing in my cash games information. I think I may have messed something up when I tried purging the hands and then re-importing them earlier. Is it possible for me to just start anew with my hold'em manager.

Please export your hands from the old database http://www.holdemmanager.net/faq/afmviewfaq.aspx?faqid=173 then create a new database http://www.holdemmanager.net/faq/afmviewfaq.aspx?faqid=146 and reimport the hands into the new database

Hello,

I just started playing on Cake network and I am having some weird probems with importing the hands.
I am running the 1.09 beta 4 version.

1) The session times are all wrong.
2) The amount won/lost is incorrect.
3) HEM changed the name of the original files, it was something like 2245HH.txt but it multiplies the name of the file so it's 2245224522452245HH.txt.
4) I can't see the name of my opponents. It just says CakeSeat1
5) When I start the auto import option it keeps importing the hands over and over again and never stops. It says duplicate hands.

1) We dont set the time cake put the timestamp on it, most likely there in a different timezone to you
2) Can you attach an original hand history where its correct on the original but not in HM
3) Does it multiply it or is it just adding the date to it eg 10062009-2245hh.txt
4) This is in line with cakes terms and conditions, your only allowed to review your own hands and if we add someone elses name is added then it could be used to review villains stats which is strictly forbidden
5) Please attach your holdemmanager.config file from C:\Program Files\RVG Software\Holdem Manager\Config folder its most likely that you setup a loop

Hello
I am still trying to get this to work. It's abit better now but still some hands missing for whatever reason.

2 problems still persist.

1) I want HEM to take the files from c:\programfiles.blablabla.cakehands and then archive them in c:\handhistories\cake.
I created a directory name as such but HEM still makes a 2009 folder c:\handhistories\2009 and then archives stuff there aswell. I don't want a 2009 folder since I don't want to mix up hands from different sites.

2) There definetly seems to be a loop of somekind. around 600 hands keep getting reimported all the time and they are all duplicated. I am almost sure this are the cake hands since I only had this problem since I started messing around with the cake hands. I will attach the config file you wanted aswell.

morny
06-12-2009, 12:17 PM
1) Options > Misc Options > Untick group hands by day and month however it should create c:\handhistories\cake\2009 and so it shouldnt mix them anyway

2) Theres no loop setup there, if you look in

C:\Program Files\NoiQpoker\HandHistory and C:\Program Files\Cake Poker\Cake Hands is there alot of hands in there? If so try manually moving them and seeing if the hands build up after you manually move them, bare in mind they wont move immediately, theyll move 15-20 mins after you havent modified the hand history file i.e played any more hands at that table for 15-20 mins

Ok finally everything has worked out for the best.

I had one problem which took my alot of time to fix but I did it eventually and I want to share that problem incase if someone else has it in the future.

I had a total of around 700 cake hands. The first 68 that I recieved in the .txt file were not looking like the rest of the 632 hands.

My name has also been given stars like this; Lark**
Whereas on the other 632 hands I could always see my whole name during the whole hand and only my opponents would have *** after their first 4 letters.
So the result was that I had to have 2 players in HEM to get to complete hands for me. One with Lark** and one with Larken.

The solution was to go into the .txt files of the 68 hands and change it by hand. It took some time but it worked. Maybe it wasn't the best way but I'm happy it worked out anyway :)

By the way one other question. During the time I've used HEM I managed to gather alot of names on the player tab. When I enter the cash game tabb and want to change player there is a litle down arrow which you can click and all names that you have previously entered will show up. I wanna clean that up, aswell the Lark** which is there and I dont have hands on that name anymore.

Thanks alot for a great product and an ever better support!

You cant delete those at the moment, it just shows the 20 most used names, well add something in later versions where you can clear it

Hello,
I used what was at one time a free importer to pull my hands in from Cake. Seemed to work ok, only did the one time for a few months of play back in January. I had some hands in limbo between Jan 09 and May 5th I imported into a PS userID.
Is there or will there be a way to merge the Cake to PS data and designate all the hand history to a single Cake search?

morny
06-14-2009, 04:09 PM
When we add pre 5th support you can reimport using the original hands after purging the old hands under the stars ID, in the meantime you could use an alias http://www.holdemmanager.net/faq/afmviewfaq.aspx?faqid=35

Just downloaded the beta version you linked near the top of this thread. I have routed all the history files appropriately. Played some cash and couldn't get it to work. No HUD and nothing in my HM database either.

The CAKE network is not in the FAQ under site support so some assistance would be appreciated on how to set this up.

morny
06-15-2009, 07:11 AM
We havent added it yet since its not fully supported, hands from before the 5th of June wont import yet but hands post 5th June will. Well get the old hands supported as soon as weve time but its quite tricky so may take some time

Cake dont allow the hud to be used so its disabled and wont work, you can only use HM to review your own stats

theorize
06-15-2009, 12:40 PM
OK, I didn't realize that about the HUD. I was not trying to get hands before June 5th btw, I just started playing on CAKE yesterday actually. I was unable to see those hands being recorded though.

Hello!


I just installed the new beta (1.09.7), made a new database! and imported all my hands from Cakepoker (76files). Unfortunately i got 84 import errrors.

Is there a way i can see, which file i corrupt? Is there maybe a log? And does 84 errors mean that 84 hands are not imported?


Thanks for your help!

What version of HM are you using, can you attach some hands where it gives errors or counts the small blind incorrectly

Hello!

I have used the Beta version 4 to import Cake hands. It's been going alright except 2 things. I just downloaded the newest version (9) but these problems still persist.

1) The EV graph seems to live it's own life. One example I have is in the beginning of the session I went all in with 77 vs AK and I won the pot. My winnings line went up offcourse but my EV line just went straight forward.
Now after around 15 K hands on Cake my EV line is way way below my winning line and shows that I've had alot of luck. But I think it's not accurate considering that hand I just explained.

2) I played some hands on 0.25/0.50 $ but in HEM it shows that I've played on 25/50 $.

Hello! Thank you for your programme!
But I have one problem. My earnings are higher than I really have. At first the difference was small, about 2-3 dollars. But I've noticed that after every hand importing the difference is growing. And it is about 7 dollars now.
I suppose that it caused by errors while importing hands. And also I usually have about 50 duplicate hands. What means "duplicate" and how can I fix it?
I began to play at Cake on 6 June.
Thank you!

netsrak
06-29-2009, 03:52 AM
Please make sure you use the latest beta: http://www.holdemmanager.com/downloads/HmBetaUpdate.exe

Duplicate hands are hands that are already in the database. Normally imported hands should be moved automatically after some minutes from the pokerclient handhistory folder to a archive folder.

strannikspb
06-29-2009, 08:18 AM
Yes, I'm using the latest Beta version.
It is also strange that the difference is growing..
Duplicate hands.. If HM see that some hands already exist in db, it would replace them, or it would add them with another name, or just ignore?
How can I fix this problem, and also how can any hands already be in db when I'm importing new files..
At first I think that $3-4 dollars difference is of no matter. But it's growing.
Maybe it can be caused by rakeback options? But my rakeback is two times bigger than the difference, so I think that it is due to duplicate hands..
By the way, Cake is raking only that hands when you see the flop. If the game ends on the preflop - there is no rake.. Total hands in my cake client - 8494. And in my HM - 8475. I haven't imported there hands from the freerolls. But the amount of duplicate hands about 50 every time.. Well I really have no idea where is the problem...

Wow. I found in the hand history folder that there are some files of history. But HM say that there is no file to import!!
I can send these files to you!

netsrak
06-29-2009, 09:27 AM
move this files to a different folder via Windows explorer and import them manually from there.

The handhistory folder should always be empty except the latest just imported files.

strannikspb
06-29-2009, 09:47 AM
I've moved all files to another folder. All files have been imported. But very interesting
"Hands imported: 994
Duplicate Hands: 994".

netsrak
06-29-2009, 10:26 AM
They were already in your database. So you still have the problem with the difference?
Some small differences can occur when you have connection problems or leave the table before a hand is completed. Could this be the reason?

strannikspb
06-29-2009, 02:44 PM
It's strange.. I have 4 new files with hands history.
So I've import them and see that 554 hands imported and 213 duplicate hands. How can it be with new files??
And there are also 5 errors during import and I don't know what exactly these errors are..
Yes I still have the difference in balance: $7 higher than it really is. And if calculate with rakeback - $10 smaller than it really is.
And I am very much worried about duplicate hands.
Is it problem one can experience only with Cake? Or with other rooms also?

All Apologies

You guys should ask member redlotus how he did it. He made a Tracker for Cake (with some other site support) that was very good, which I used and liked a lot.


Edit: Importing pre June 5th HH's obv is what I meant.

Please try updating to the latest beta version 1.09 Beta 9 - http://www.holdemmanager.net/forum/showthread.php?t=11865

You may want to try and delete all the previously imported errors and reimporting, or perhaps easier to just create a new DB so you can compare the 2 different imports.

This is exactly how it is supposed to work. You were about a coin-flip to win the hand. Over the long run, you will neither lose money nor win money in these situations, which is why the EV line doesn't rise or fall for that hand.

Obviously a parsing error, for which I'm no help. You might have better luck getting it fixed if you post this in the Beta 1.09 thread, though.

Ok, well I thought that the only time the EV line deters from the regular green line is when A, either you win a hand you shouldn't or B you loose a hand you shouldn't.

If you loose when you are suppose to loose and win when you are supposed to win it sticks with the regular line.

77 vs AKo is still 55% in favor for the 77 so it's not really a coinflip.

Maybe I've gotten it all wrong but this is how I always thought it was working.

Ok, well I thought that the only time the EV line deters from the regular green line is when A, either you win a hand you shouldn't or B you loose a hand you shouldn't.

If you loose when you are suppose to loose and win when you are supposed to win it sticks with the regular line.

Nope. Even if you win a hand you were "supposed" to win, the EV line will not rise as high as your green line. For example, say you are dominating an opponent when you go all in. Preflop, you are roughly a 70/30 favorite. In a $100, heads-up, BvB pot, your green line will go up by Pot-Contribution, which is $100-$50 or $50. However, your EV line will only go up (Pot x Equity)-Contribution, which is ($100*.70)-$50 or $20.


77 vs AKo is still 55% in favor for the 77 so it's not really a coinflip.
I was over-simplifying it a bit, but you'd be hard pressed to notice the difference between horizontal and what your EV line does in that one hand. I'm also not sure if the EV calcs take rake into account, which would bring it even closer to horizontal if it does.

I have recently started playing alot of SNG's at Cake after having played exclusively cash games. I cannot seem to get my tourney info to display correctly for some reason. It shows some tourneys as uncompleted, it never gives me credit for cashing and most tourneys never show up at all. Any and all help would be greatly appreciated. Probably something I'm doing wrong as I'm unfamiliar with using HEM for tournament play but after reading other's similiar problems, I don't believe it's all on my end. Many tourneys are still showing up in cash games. All the tourneys have been played after May 5th. Thanks in advance

I am sure this is a known issue, but HEM is not calculated my money won/loss properly. I am playing on Lock Poker it is off by about 15%

Is there anything that I can do? Everything else seems to be working properly and I am not seeing any errors, but It seems to be either skipping hands, or just not adding properly.

Hi guys, if it says "0 files found" then HM thinks it already scanned the file so just rename it or move it and then use Import File again and that should force HM to try importing again.

If you get errors then please email me the hand histories (support@holdemmanager.net). Cake do a lot of odd and inconsistent things. Most likely it is a simple fix once I have the hands

5. HUD's are not allowed at Cake Poker

The HUD will not display while playing at a Cake Poker table.

The Active Player Details Window will not populate any data.

The HUD will not display when using the Hand Replayer for Cake hands.

The Cash Games > Reports tab will populate your own data as you play, but the 'Use and group by currently active players instead of selected player' will not work for Cake Poker while playing.

I've been using HEM for months with FT and have had no problems. I completely understand what you're talking about. When I click on the change button and enter my Cake name, it doesn't come up. I've used a few cake aliases and I've searched for all of them, but they're simply not there.

I've read just about every post on the forum that seems even vaguely related and I can only conclude that my problem is unique. All the other problems were solved with a beta upgrade, clicking the change button, etc. There's something definitely wrong here. Again, I am 100% confident that it is archiving my cake hand histories and when I click on the change button and enter the first few letters of any of the cake aliases that I've used, they don't show up. It doesn't make any sense. I haven't found anyone else who's had this problem.

I was one step ahead of ya. I created a new database earlier and imported all hands from the 2009 folder in my archive. My FT name is there, my cake name isn't. None of my cake aliases are.

Are the cake names actually <i>supposed</i> to be there? Does this have something to do with keeping the cake names anonymous? When I look at the files in the archive, I can see my full name while all of the other names show the first four letters and then asterisks. I am thoroughly confused.

Hi, I have made the following Cake fixes in beta 42 which should be out tomorrow night:

* (1.09 Beta 42 BUG) Cake hands with the text "Pro Table" at top were failing to import. This is fixed
* (1.09 Beta 42 BUG) Cake hands where stack sizes used a 1.000 notation to equal $1000 and 60,00 notation when a player won $60 now import ok
* (1.09 Beta 42 BUG) Cake hands where stack sizes switch between various decimal notation should now import ok
* (1.09 Beta 42 BUG) Cake hands where time format looks like 20.01.28 now import correctly
* (1.09 Beta 42 BUG) Fixed Cake issue where multiple hands would be corruped in the hand history and saved under the same hand # and this could potentially cause a crash within the HmImport app.

As far as I can tell this should address all the various Cake import issues besides fully corrupt hands.

Thanks,

Hi, I have the latest HEM Update 1.06 Beta but I'm having problems importing HU SNG's.

All the games import but I manually have to go into data view to edit them.

E.g, I import 5 games, in data view it's likely that most of these will have the wrong info -- 3 players, not finished, Buy-in and rake are wrong, winnings is wrong and speed is wrong.

It's a pain to have to manually edit all these every time I import a session.

Another problem is that alot of All-in situation the cEV will show but isnt converted into $EV so my EV adjusted winnings are incorrect. I've tried using 'Fix EV for current player' after every update but it still isn't working.

Thanks for the HH files!

Cake decided to not include seat positions or stack sizes on the last hand of a tourney...

This caused all sorts of issues but we've fixed this for beta 7 by trying to go through the hand a second time and determining the seats / stacks as best as possible.

They also decided to say that the hero "finished 1 out of 1 players." so apparently he was playing with himself. :eek:

I've sent you a PM with a link to our new FAQ system. Please let me know if this got you up and running. I'm responsible for the new FAQ system and I want to make sure it's perfect before it's released to the public.

Also, Cake does not allow HUD's so Holdem Manager will only keep track of your hands inside of Holdem Manager.

So I am a little confused with all the talk here about updates etc.

I didn't find the instructions on how to configure HEM with Cake, but I thought I read it was now supported with the latest Beta update??

Do I still need to get a HH converter from somewhere??

Thanks!

Cake has been supported for a while now. But Cake doesn't allow a HUD, so you will never have a HUD on a Cake skin.

I just played some tables on Cake and everything is importing just fine. Did you try finding your Hand History folder for Cake? Make sure it's saving the hands and make sure Holdem Manager knows where these hands are? It's all outlined in the link I sent by Private Message.

Also make sure you have the latest version of Holdem Manager incase your version is outdated. Poker sites change their Hand History format all the time so we have to release lots of updates.

Did Cake's hand history format change sometime around May 09? I bought HEM a few days ago, mainly to track my 2009 Cake play, but nothing prior to 5/7/09 is in the database. I was using manual import and got no error messages.

Cake completely changed the way that hand histories were written around that date. If you want to convert older hand histories to the new format, check out my Cake Hand History Updater (http://forums.holdemmanager.com/showthread.php?t=12505). I cannot verify that the converted hand histories will work with the newest versions of HeM (I haven't tested the program since I wrote it many months ago), but the program is free to use and I don't see any reason why it won't work.

Hi, I'm having the same problem that a poster in this thread asked about a week ago. Here's the post for reference:

http://forums.holdemmanager.com/showpost.php?p=116645&postcount=123

70% or so of my PowerPoker (Cake network) S&G's don't show the correct info once they are imported into HEM. Just like the other poster, the number of players, buy-in, my finish position, and whether or not I finished are often incorrect. A few notes:

a) I just updated to 1.10 Beta 7 hoping that would fix it, but it didn't.
b) I have only imported hands from this month.
c) I've been playing Double-up S&G's. I only have 4 non-double-up's in my records. I can't remember if any of those caused problems.
d) Cash games seem fine.

I'll send you guys the HH's.

Hi,

I just finished configuring HM with Cake (PokerHost), and all the hands are importing fine. However, when I look into Players icon, and run a report, I can see my nickname, but all the others are named as CakeSeat10, CakeSeat1, CakeSeat2, etc etc.

You have anything on how to fix this so I can see the real screenames of other players?

01-17-2010, 05:40 PM
I've played another session, always the same problem.

But seems HM doesn't recognize any players, as CakeSeat1 will be the stats for every players that has been seated to seat 1 on any given table, same for Seat2, etc..

Thx for the help

Ok, Thanks for the answers netsrak.

One last thing, all hands are importing fine, however I played couple hands of NL1K, and hands did not import, but the nl400-600 did..
I think it could be due to the Pro Table, any clue on that?

Hi, all games have been importing ok recently, but I still have to change Buy-in, rake and speed myself. Anyway, today I imported my games, it said they all imported without any errors. I went to the tourney tab and none of the new ones showed up. I checked all the filters to make sure I wasn't filtering them out. I'l send the HH to support I suppose :)

Created a new database and imported a few hands from cake. Had to edit one game manually since payout structure wasn't correct. The three games imported looked ok so then I imported the rest to the new database and ended up with the same mess. Also hands from other poker sites which were fine before came into the new database incorrect.

I used the export hands function in the old database and then imported from the file location where thy were put to the new database. I don't even know if this is the correct procedure.

I have updated to the latest version and all setup files are correct for import. The problems I am having are incomplete games, incorrect buy-in , incorrect payout structure, incorrect finish, and this is only on cake poker sng tourneys. Full tilt and absolute import with no problems.

Do I post the config file here or to support?

Hi there
Can u tell me pls, what should I do if my HH (I'm playing at RedStar Poker) does not import correctly?
Sometimes HM does not even import a tournament. Sometimes it does, but with wrong rake amount or it shows that tournament is not finished..

thx

Hi,

If the hands are not importing please can you create a new database FAQ - Hold'em Manager Poker Tracking Software :: Create / Delete Database (http://faq.holdemmanager.com/questions/75/Create+%7B47%7D+Delete+Database) and try importing them into that.

The thing is HM can easily calculate the correct winnings and placings if its a sng where all the players are at the same table. However with MTTs basically and 2+ table tournaments HM has no way of knowing whether there is 10 people in the tournament or 10,000 so without this info HM cant workout your position or payout or if the tournament is complete. You can manually edit or also you can request summaries which detail the total people in a tournie, the payout positions and your finishing place, if you import this into HM it will update the results for you but not all site give summaries and i think Cake is one of those so you'll need to manually edit MTTs results. But email cakes support and see if they have summaries as im not 100% sure on that.

For about the past two weeks, importation of my Cake hand histories has become spotty. Some import & some (most) do not. A significant percentage of those that do import have errors.

For example, on 2/23, I played 10 SNG's; only 5 imported. I played mostly DON's.

I'm aware that Cake hand histories can be incomplete, ambiguous or poorly formatted; and that it's difficult to get them to import without errors. But in the past, HEM has been able to at least get most of them into the database, albeit with errors (some minor, many major, usually around hero's last played hand). But, I could replay them for some educational value.

One potential problem I see is that if you disconnect, Cake creates a new hand history, but with a different file name. For example,

'HH20100214 $10 NLH Double-up T7808914', becomes
'HH20100214 Tournament Table 1 T7808914'.

SUPPORT: If you need more Cake hand histories that won't import, please let me know and how many. I won't send any unless I hear from Support because it would take some time to sort through those that did import versus those that did not. And, you may have enough already.

Regards,
fly fisher

Hello,

I'm also having trouble with the Cake tournament hands importing correctly.
What I do till there is a solution is manually editing them (it's a time consuming task if you play many DoN's).

What I've noticed is even if you do edit them manually they won't show the correct numbers in the graph. It's like I never even edited them.
Also some of the tourneys are marked as grey since there is no finish position and they are "unfinished". But I manually edit their finishing position but it still is marked as grey.

Why is this?

netsrak
02-25-2010, 11:23 AM
You need to set the "finished flag" with the manual edit too.

Depends on the informations in the handhistory file. We need to look at it and try to figure it out. Can't give you more details at the moment.
