I can't seem to find a way to generate a report that shows my BB/100 by day of week and/or time of day for each limit I play. How do I generate this information?

Anyone, Bueller? Class?

Win-rates take long enough to converge as it is. I'd imagine you would need at least 10million hands before time/day win-rates are even remotely accurate.

Hardly. Depending on the game and your edge you could get to a +- 1 BB/100 accuracy with only 100,000 hands or less.

Your grossly underestimating variance.
I know a guy who crushes 400NL yet his last 100K hands he has a negative winrate.

Now your thinking of actually being able to measure your winrate at 9am on a monday morning with 100K hands behind you....
You will see how wrong you are when you get this filter working and your tuesday evenings are 35BB/100 whilst your sunday mornings are -22BB/100 .

Sorry but you just don't understand variance at all. Why bother responding when you a) are not adding any value to solving the problem, and b) clearly don't understand the topic?

If you assume you have a 3 BB/100 win rate, if you play 100K hands of HU LHE, your 95% confidence level is +- 1.25 BB/100. So clearly at 100K hands you have enough data to know with 95% confidence your approximate win rate.

I am not looking for 9am on a Tuesday morning level detail. I am looking for Tuesday from 6pm to Midnight compared to Wed from 6pm to Midnight, or just Tues vs Wed, etc... and I have plenty of hands for samples of that size.

PokerTracker offers this functionality.

Thank you very much! I figured there had to be something like this for HEM. I appreciate you taking the time to point it out!

Sorry I didn't see the thread sooner. It has been rather hectic the past few days. :(

NP! I was wondering if you knew how to change the report in that thread you linked to me in order to show the win rate in BB/100 by day of week (and time of day) rather than just the overall profit? That would a lot more informative for me. Is there an easy way to just substitute BB/100 vs profit there? Thanks!

I was just trying to help. I guess your always right though. Good luck.
