weird question: how does HEM know what time i played a hand at? i ask because i played a session today, cash games on two different sites. while doing my session review, i noticed that a monster pot i won on my last rotation showed up in the middle of my graph.

upon closer inspection, the hands from one of the sites was importing 1 hour later than my time. i checked the sites, i have the times set to the correct time zone. i know that i can go into options-setting-adjust site import times, but seeing as i have never noticed this before, im a bit curious as to why this happened? any thoughts?

HEM knows the time the hand is played as it will be written in the hand histories. The likely cause of this one hour error maybe the fact that daylight saving time has now commenced in the USA. However daylight saving time does not commence in Europe until Sunday March 27th so until then countries that have not begun daylight saving time are one hour closer to Eastern time (ET).
