I orig posted this on the PT3 forum and figured I'd post it here too. Without getting into the whole "this one is better than that one" argument can anyone explain this and help me stop it from happening..
Today I tried running both Holdem Manager and PT3 for my sessions. What I did was run HM during play and then once a session was finished I stoped HM's import and ran a PT3 auto import.
Here is a breakdown of 3 sessions I played today and what HM and PT3 gathered
Session 1: PT3 start time: 14:24 endtime: 15:41 hands 639
_________HM____________14:24_________15:42________ 676
Session 2: PT3 start time: 18:05 endtime: 19:27 hands 615
__________HM___________18:05__________19:28_______ 615
Session 3: PT3 start time: 21:00 endtime: 23:02 hands 1019
__________HM __________20:43__________23:02________1289
I am just wondering why it is that PT3 seems to be missing hands and if there is anything I can do to stop it? Is allowing HM to import hands first somehow screwing up PT3's import? Basically I know that I set pokerstars to save the HH to C:\Program Files\PokerStars\HandHistory\ where they are supposed to be kept for 30days, and both HM and PT3 import hands from this file. So if these files are supposed to be here for 30days it seems odd that PT3 is able to import most but not all hands.
I also found the following strange.. In session 1 both PT3 and HM started and finished at about the same time but was still off by 30+ hands. Session 2 which was 5 min longer than session 1 had no differences btw PT3 and HM. Finally in session 3 PT3 started 17min after HM and missed a ton of hands, but when you look at session 1 vs session 2 it appears session time isn't the cause of the import differences..
