View Full Version : Calculating VPPs

I'm a 100NL Full Ring player on Poker Stars. I would like to know how many VPPs I'm getting for my play. Poker Stars awards 1 VPP for each hand where the rake reached $0.40. A 2nd VPP is awarded for the hand if the rake reaches $3.00 (I think).

I see that HEM has a stat which displays hands where the rake is $0.40. It does not have a $3.00 setting, does it? If that's the case, is there any other way to calculate my VPPs using HEM?

Please see this thread http://www.holdemmanager.net/forum/showthread.php?t=4652&highlight=vpps as youll need to create a custom stat, you might need to check with stars what $ amount they award the 2nd point though if your not sure

So I started a new .txt file in the "Reports" folder named "customstats" and in it I typed:

Stat GroupName="Default" ColumnName="Raked Hands $3.00+" ValueExpressions="Sum(case when pkh.RakeAmount >= 300 then 1 else 0 end) as RakedHands300" Evaluate="RakedHands300" ColumnHeader="Raked\nHands\n$3.00+" ColumnFormat="0" ColumnWidth="60" Tooltip="Raked Hands where total rake at least $3" \

And then I restarted HEM. Now, when I try to display it, I get:

"ERROR: 42703: column "cusotm" does not exist.

What did I do wrong?
