The multi currency support has been asked for and promised for over a year, and since the latest beta versions we keep hearing it will come in next version in 2 weeks etc but nothing happens. Since non dollar tables are so common on many networks(and many like me play the majority of hands at those) it is an unbeliavably bad service to not fix this when the demand by many are so high for such a long time. Really what is the problem?

And I have also recently read in some threads some posters thinking the tone and "inpatience" in this matter is unfair - well I couldnt disagree more. The issue has been pushed forward for so long and so many different posts and the lame promises about yes it will come in next fix or soon has also been posted by hm support countless times. if the users have a request then they have the right to demand its fixed and be upset when nothing happens for such a long time... What is the issue here , is it technically impossible for some reason or why dont you implement it?

Just one example
from october 1.5 !!!! year ago

U could say that for being top 2 of issues worked on at that time -more could be wanted or wouldnt you say?

Just tell it like it is instead, so your customers wont get their hopes up thinking its actually "coming soon".

Yes - it is coming. There are a lot of things being worked on right now and Multi Currency and Tourney support are the top 2

This doesn't look to be the case, because while multicurrency was probably in the spec' "to be delivered next month" when most people purchased the product, we still don't have it but we do have a load of superfluous functionality - table scanners, leak finders, etc, that weren't wanted when we made the decision to buy.

Absolutely spot on. This has been next-month, next-month for what seems like two years now. It's unbelievably frustrating. It's this sort of 2p2-ish strange bias where everyone is American and plays at FTP or Stars. I have never played either of those sites for any meaningful amount of time, and I wager there's a lot of people like me out there as well.


I really hope I don't have to manually purge and reimport my € games, because it's going to be a long and arduous process of checking session by session for the last few years with PT DBs I've been replicating while using HEM.

I heard rumours of being able to select date ranges to mark as € games. This would be helpful, as would the ability to change certain table names to € or other currency. (For example, Prima € tables mostly have a '2' appended to the name)

Sorry, I know I'm your biggest multi-currency troll - but it's been very frustrating. A frank 'wait twelve months' from you guys twelve months ago would have been nice.

Quoting myself from last year, sorry. It's so blatantly just basic functionality for any poker software today, it's almost like there's some sort of business agreement between the owners of HEM and PT or something.

One time please!

Please, give us multi currency support, we really need it! I used to write a script that converts euro and pound hand history files in something like this “$1.001/2” just to separate dollars from euros and pounds, but it is not working correctly since 1.10+. I was not updating script because I thought multi currency will be implemented soon, but it isn’t. Multi currency feature is probably the most important thing for me.

I agree it's disappointing how long it's taking to get multi-currency working. This is obviously a far more important feature than getting the HUD to work with rush poker, as far more people play on £ and € tables than play rush poker, so it should be prioritised above that.

and I really can't believe that it is that big of a problem. as a noob I would just say that you need 2 more fields in the Database whicht would be called like "currency" and "shown_currency" or whatever. The currency had the actual currency in it and "shown_currency" is the currency that is shown, like you won 100€ then it would be like 140,00$

please work on it as fast and as hard as possible!

Well I dont think its that easy at all. There are a lot of relations to consider, but never the less, multi currency is an importent feature and it has sounded that it should be finished soon.

So when is soon? It would be nice to have an esimated date that is realistic.
Can we have that date answered here in this thread?

Its better to have a date far away that we can trust if thats the case, rather than have a date thats not relistic in reality.

I often come here to check for new patches that finally bring smulti-currency support or some news on a OS X version but all too often I find a new patch with some needed bugfixes and another unnecessary new feature. Obviously I don't know how you work but one could get the impression that you find new stuff to add all the time that does not add much value to the product because it might be easy while avoiding important features like multi-currency and OS X (1261 uservoices atm) that might be harder.

The problem might be with a front-end implementation, just think about all queries they need to redesign and optimize. And the second problem might be with exchange rate, for example how to calculate games played 90 days ago, and if they make a table with a day-to-day exchange rate for every currency and recalculate report for every single day, how fast this will be?

But still, for me just separating dollar, euro and pound games will be enough by now.

I have an idea of an easy solution to multicurrency.

1: Everything in HM is in Dollar or in Euro or in Pound......
2: The user has to set the conversion rate self (examlpe in a tab says £=X...€=Y......Currency=C)
3:If Im right the only ting to fix in the databas is a tag for what currency it is (based in the information in the handhistoryfiles) and HM then converts and presents everyting in chosen Currency (based on the conversion rate value the user inserted).


That would work fine for me before implementing all that other fancy multicurrencyfeatures. Whatever that could be....

I know there are some drawbacks. It shold be different tablestakes for different currencys as an example, because the tablestakes obviously are not the same with different currencys..........but are that importent as a first step? No its not. Everyting is in $ now and thats a lot more wrong.....

Do anyone wanting multicurrency agree to this idea?

02-06-2010, 01:16 AM
@Terminator. It might be a little more complicated than that. Once you start introducing an 'exchange rate' you also need to consider when a cash out is performed. For instance, let's say I play for a number of weeks (playing at Euro tables) and build up a healthy BR (yeah, dreaming I know, but work with me on this). Hm can keep track of all of those winnings, but when it comes time to me cashing out some lovely in US$ I might be in trouble if the exchange rate has tanked/rocketed.

Sure, I might have won 100 Euros over the past week (and let's say last monday the exchange rate was 1:1) but when I cashed out on friday I only got $75. Both sets of data are correct, but different. I think this might be some of RVG's problem... how much of an 'accounting engine' should be built into HM.

Terminator
02-06-2010, 07:51 AM
@the minder.

True. You are absolutely right. The different currencys lives different lives in many aspects and that was my point. The exchange rate problem is existing today anyway.... There is allso fees including if you live in Euroland when you convert to Euro from Dollar......... and so on....... to concider.....


If the currency is tagged in the database at the beginning the information is there, to make something more of later and nothing else has to be changed. The rest could be taken care of later. Thats my point. That accounting enginge funktions could be left outside of HM at the moment and we would have a much more correct presentation of graphs and so.

Maby you are right and Im cutting to much corners.

I would be please if HEM could simply recognize that I'm playing on different currency tables and put €/£ tables separate from $ in the reports and stats tabs. That would already be a huge improvement which would enable you to do the necessary currency conversions yourself by hand.

I agree. It's just important to separate the results from tables of each currency because otherwise the results from two different stake levels are mixed into together. I play on ladbrokes and this is putting me off playing the new £ tables because I won't be able to keep the results from those tables separate.

I completely agree with the OP. It should not take this long to add something as sorely needed as multicurrency support to a $90 piece of software.

I feel sorry for the people who've been waiting for it for over a year. I've only ever played on PokerStars, so I've only needed multicurrency support for last couple months (they just added Euro tables not too long ago). It's a good thing for you guys that PS added Euro tables, even if you don't play there -- it's most likely the primary reason why HEM is hurrying to add support all of the sudden. If it weren't for PS adding those tables you'd probably end up waiting another year or more.

this is sooo true.
suddenly there is an update for ftp with rush poker and only a few days later there are several updates for RUSH support. i mean wtf!?
who cares about a HUD in rush poker? it's fun. just go ahead and play without a hud...

but now with stars launching € tables they have to support even non-us softwares like ipoker etc. :P

In this thread HM is saying "its right around the corner". Ok. If it is.... it cant be hard to give us a date that we can trust when multi currency will be ready.

If we cant have a date then you cant know its "right around the corner" either. So give us a date or dont say things that its right around the corner making us believe its coming soon.

Soon is relative but for me it means a couple of weeks......

If i ever get unstuck this month and consequently have some free time, i'm considering writing a quick and dirty python script and may release it if there is interest.

Basically the idea would be to hard code currency conversion rates (if you don't there are a whole bunch of problems that can come up--this is probably why official support is taking so long). You would change your poker site software to write hand histories to a temporary folder, the script would see that a file has been written/updated, it would run conversion into US$ and write the file to the folder HEM is scanning for.

Some issues i foresee off the top of my head:
-assuming it works (which it should), would add some strange levels to the HEM filters
-changing exchange rates is a _really_ icky problem
-mostly because of rake, expect rounding errors to be slightly magnified
-if/when HEM officially supports multiple currencies, it could be a headache to get old hand histories to play well with newly imported ones
-to avoid excess cpu usage, it will probably check for hand history updates once every couple of seconds, and so there will be a small extra delay in hud stat updates
-because of hard-coded exchange rates, there _will_ be small discrepancies between what the pokersite says your balance is and what HEM says your balance is, which leads to:
-i don't know how well tracking software has held up under scrutiny for anyone being audited by tax authorities, and don't know how using this might impact that (though the probability of additional problems from having used a non-official script is vanishingly small, the potential downside might be huge)

i anticipate releasing it under a BSD license... any interest?

Noooo, there is no need at all to convert £ and € to $!!
Why would an Englisman, a Dutch, an Italian or a Norwegian want that?
I just want to have the results separated. If I play in £ it should show £ in my results.

if you only play in one currency, it is a non-issue... just pretend that $ is "¤". It sounds like what you want is just different databases. This is significantly different to why most people want and need multicurrency.

I agree that if and when HEM supports multicurrency, it will be a much better solution, and you will probably be able to separate it out as you specify, however for the time being, if i win a $1000 pot at FT, and lose a €900 pot at iPoker, HEM will show me up for the session when i am in fact down, which is the reason behind my proposed temporary workaround.

Fozzy, to be honest it doesn't matter if the release happens on this date or not. However, it is the first that I can recall someone from HM actually giving a definitive date and for that RVG deserves some kudos.

HM customers are not idiots (they may be whiny, pushy, self-centered twerps at times) and recognize statements such as "real soon now" and "our number 1 priority" as indicative of HM not having a strategic plan or a planning cycle. As customers, we realize that sometimes things go off the rails and that delays happen and deadlines/schedules not met; we can live with that.

@ The Minder. I agree of cause things can go out of track in developmentprojects ant of cause we understand that. A date is always an estimate and someting can allways happens on the road.

@strk Maby I was a little bit on the same track as you earlier in this thread.
1: Make sure currencyinformation is in the database for later adjustments and
2: Basically make the conversion before Hm- program does anything else. If you do that my guess is that hardly nothing has to be changed in HM program itself.

Well it was only an suggesting for an quick and dirty solution, waiting for all that other fancy multicurrency functions, if those functions was many weeks away.

We have currency translation. You can show stats / graphs in USD/EUR or GBP (more can be added) and it will convert results to the appropriate currency based on rates and currency of the hand.

is it directly changed in $?

The "$" stat probably won't be used by people who play more than one currency since it isn't really $USD. Instead you will use one of the new currency stats which will automatically convert into the selected currency based on the currency of the game you played:

It uses current rates (or at least whatever you have set for the exchange rates) for everything - we may extend that in the future to have historical rates but it would make things run a lot slower.

This is being released tomorrow - probably about 24 hours from now (so 4pm my time tomorrow). Just wanted to mention that so people don't constantly auto refresh waiting for a build.

One other thing to mention, we have finished implementing the auto fixing of previously imported hands. So, when you get this new build you can run the auto fix and it will go back and correct hands that previously imported incorrectly as $USD. Depending on your pc it will run through and fix about 10-20K hands/minute so if you have a big DB you probably want to do this at the end of your session.

The "$" stat probably won't be used by people who play more than one currency since it isn't really $USD. Instead you will use one of the new currency stats which will automatically convert into the selected currency based on the currency of the game you played:

Roy,

Am I right in thinking that all the results are collated into one currency? So even though we play 3 stakes, we can choose to have the graph in £s and it will take into account the $ and Euro results too?

Wouldn't it be nice if HEM automatically "aks" the exchange rate to a website like XE - Universal Currency Converter (http://www.xe.com/ucc/) ?

We should have an option to update old hands without having to purge and reimport them

That is great to hear, and makes it worth the wait.

That is correct, you will have merged stats using whatever currency (or currencies) you want

"tokyoplayer", obviously you don't use Holdem Manager and you post here and on other forums being a shill for Poker Tracker. The forums are for Holdem Manager users and trolling isn't permitted.

To answer your questions / comments

1) we do not break the TOS of xe.com
2) every time the US does something stupid everyone's money fluctuates - that is the way currency markets work - but it is simple to create a custom stat that only shows Euro winnings for Euro Hands, USD winnings for USD hands etc although that defeats the purpose of being able to see an overall snapshot of winnings.
3) your winrate does not change when currencies change - I'll let you figure out why yourself.
4) a custom stat could be created for any currency

We were late in offering Multi Currency but finally players have a real multi currency solution. Showing multiple currencies and then combining them into one non-adjusted total is not something we would be happy with giving people.

Go to Options - Currency Settings and then click on the second tab and you will see the "Fix Hands" button. It will run through your entire DB although please note it might take a while so if you have a million+ hand DB you probably want to wait until after your poker session

It is possible that the hand fixer does not fix previously imported Boss hands. I'm pretty sure that is the problem and will get this fixed in the next update. Like you said in a later post, all new hands will work.

Hi, I've been using HHConverter on Boss, so all my hand histories are marked as $ and I cannot convert them back to € using HM's Fix, so I opened pgAdmin and manually changed gametype table: gametypedescription $ to € and currency_id from 1 to 2 and it seems to work fine now. Do I need to change some other table or that's enough?
http://img28.imageshack.us/img28/4294/asdeqs.jpg

Hand histories are still in $ though. I know I can use update with replace(handhistory, "$", "€") in handhistories table. The problem is that Boss allows having "$" in screenames, so actually I can't do this this way. So I probably need some regexp query to exclude player's screename? Is there any other way to do this? I mean it's ok even now, I don't really care having HHs in $, but on the other hand it would be nice to convert them as well.

If you look at these hands in the hand view. right click one of them and choose Copy Selected Hand to Clipboard. Then save into a notepad text file and email to support@holdemmanager.net

It does need to go through all hands although it will only attempt to go through hands from one of the sites that have multi currency support. So if you have 10 million FTP hands it will skip those. Also, the 13 million USD hands will go through really quickly since it does not need to update the DB, it just reads them and skips.


After fixed all my hands, the amount shown in "Winnings Summary" and the amount in "Graph in winnings" is not the same. I don't understand why. I refresh but nothing changes. Help me.

No, it applies the current rate to all hands - it doesn't actually change the amounts in those hands, it just sets the currency id.

Small issue, whilst the rake figure has been converted on the session page when i set time period to "This Month", on the reports page it is still showing pre currency conversion figure????


Please send the two screen shots to support@holdemmanager.net


Edit: In fact there appears to be different figures being reported on the "Reports Page" than the summary page!!?! I play on ipoker btw.


ok thanks, will check


Roy

Ok removed $ stat and replaced with $USD, €EUR and £GBP stats and this has corrected the problem, many thanks.

You need to add the new $, EUR and GBP stats to your reports.

I don't need it coz I already have it - all I need is EUR stats at SESSIONS not on REPORTS. is that possible to do?

I haven't read through all of this thread, so this may have been mentioned already:

Just a played a quick (8 hand session) at an Euro table to see how HM handles it. The graph is correct; showing winnings of €123 ($176) but the report tab incorrectly shows winnings of $123.

This may explain the problem below:


After fixed all my hands, the amount shown in "Winnings Summary" and the amount in "Graph in winnings" is not the same. I don't understand why. I refresh but nothing changes. Help me.

Don't use the "$" stat - this is no longer a USD$ stat, instead it is the amount won in whatever currency you are playing in.

Go into the stat adder and choose the Euro stat and it will show the correct amounts in Euro's.

Is this possible?

Am I rigt that I only have ONE 'worldwide' currency Exchange rate? So it won't reflect winnings I made when the exchange rate difers from the one we have today?

For Example, Today I win 100€, what means $144. If I update the rates next week, when $ and € are converting 1:1, there 'ro only $100 shown as winnings?

Kind regards

02-21-2010, 12:34 PM
yes you are right. Hope that it gets fixed ;) would be nice

i have a few problems:
--> ladbrokes hands didnt get fixed (i played only € tables). Even lots of hands from january are still shown as $ hands
--> Could you perhaps integrate a manual tagging function so that i can convert them manually?
--> Bonuses are wrong: when i change the graph from $ to € bonuses still shown in $

Rvg72
02-21-2010, 12:42 PM
We'll come up with something - I actually have a nice solution in mind.

The thing with currency is that the rate when the hand was played usually has little to do with the real rate that you get when you withdraw the money from the account and into your currency. For example, if the rate is 1.47 and you cash out you will probably get 1.44 by the time the banks take their exchange fees and that is if you cash out right away. If you wait a month then your 1470 USD winnings actually could be say 1300 USD by the time you get it out (fees + drop in Euro for example) so registering it as 1.47 isn't accurate either.

But like I said, I do have something in mind to reconcile this that won't affect performance and actually gives you more realistic historical data

Roy

Regarding Prima hands - please find a hand that has not been changed and select it in HM. Then right click and choose "Copy Selected Hand to Clipboard" and then paste that into a new notepad file. Send this file to support@holdemmanager.net

Thanks,

Schorscheee
02-21-2010, 01:00 PM
very good idea!

furthermore i just noticed that the ongame exchange rate is based on middling the exchange rate of the month before. So the rate could swing between 1,35 and 1,45 but the ongame rate is constantly at 1,39 for the month.

The option to tag the exchange rate on my own for ongame could be implemented. Its a problem because adapting the ongame rate will affect the corectness of the other rooms rates.

Do you think it is possible to resolve this problem?

Rvg72
02-21-2010, 02:02 PM
Yes, the new piece I have in mind will allow you to properly deal with these ongame currency rates per month without any issues

This argument doesn't apply on Stars (for me). You can keep balances in other currencies, but you don't have to. I only have a USD balance. When I sit down my buy-in is converted. When I get up, it's converted back to USD. So, in this situation, it does make sense to maintain historical conversions.

Thanks for your work.

If it isn't possible, then I would like to replace all the $-values with €-values. These are for example:

3. Sessions tab - rake in €

You are using the latest release version 1.10.03a?

Uncheck "Import from Subfolders" in the auto-import settings.

Move the gamehistory.dat file your \hmarchive folder and import it via Import From File(s).

Try a new session with auto-import. A new handhistory file should be generated.

* Removed unnecessary message boxes shown during database schema changes
* Fixed a problem where changes to auto import folders were not automatically picked up by the importer
* Modified the Rush file detection to better handle when FTP modifies the table structure (ie taking a table that was using ante's previously and removing that)
* Session tab now allows you to specify the currency to use for Amount Won, EV and Rake (previously it had been set to $USD)
* Update to deal with older Prima Euro hands that used a different currency hash in the hand history causing them not to be recognized
* HUD fixes for Rush

At ipoker the things differ a bit: i have account at usd, when i play euro ipoker itself instaconverts my usd to euro, and when I leave table it converts my winnings back to usd. So when I cashout I do cashout usd and the ammount I won on specific day in the past actually matter s a lot.

Same for me.

My account is in USD and stars auto converts to Euros when I sit down auto converts back to USD when I leave the table.

HEM tells me how much I have won in Euros but the HEM conversion to USD is incorrect because it does not track the stars exchange rates.

Any update on the currency converter status for tourneys?
I would even think a converter that only supported auto conversion is great.

What I mean is for example on pokerstars you can click a couple of options to automatically handle different currencies.
So when you want to play a euro game but you only have a USD account its handles automatically.
Pokerstars auto converts the $ amount to euros to get you into the euro game and when the tourney is over they automatically convert the euro winnings back to USD in your account.
Pokerstars uses reuters currency converter so unless pokerstars would allow HEM to have access to the numbers on the fly then I dont know if this could work.

This might be similar to the sharkscope handles different currencies. I dont know how precise the sharkscope system is but it is at least something.

What's going on here? I read your earlier posts about Bonuses being incorrect for multi-currency and now you are talking about $ swinging and winnings totally wrong? I'm lost.

I'm not a multi-currency guy but I believe you 100% the bonuses part of HM does not use multi-currency but everything else seems pretty solid. The only one posting in this thread now is you so I have to assume things generally work for the most part.

A question regarding multi currency... sorry i didn't read the whole thread, i don't know if this was addressed earlier or not...

I understand how all this works and am already using it, but was wondering what happens with conversion through time. I mean, rates don't stay the same and change over time. We have this nice feature now to automatically fetch current rates and apply them.

But, doesn't that make the past reports incorrect? Does HEM save 'current rate' for the time when hand was played and use that, or does it always use 'the latest rate' ?
