You would need a custom stat, not custom report.
How does Ipoker calculate their points? I could whip one up for you if you give me their formula.
Can anybody tell my why my custom stat doesn't match up with the actual points I receive? My stat is:
Stat GroupName="Default" ColumnName="Ipoker PPs" ValueExpressions="Sum((case when PKH.RakeAmount between 301 and 500 then 13 else 0 end) +(case when PKH.RakeAmount between 201 and 300 then 11 else 0 end) +(case when PKH.RakeAmount between 151 and 200 then 9 else 0 end) +(case when PKH.RakeAmount between 101 and 150 then 6 else 0 end) +(case when PKH.RakeAmount between 51 and 100 then 3 else 0 end) +(case when PKH.RakeAmount between 25 and 50 then 2 else 0 end))/1.0 as IpokerPPs" Evaluate="IpokerPPs" ColumnHeader="Ipoker\nPlayer Points" ColumnFormat="0.00" ColumnWidth="*" Tooltip="Ipoker Player Points earned" /
and the VIP system is:
i always make more points than the stat says and I can't figure out why... heeeeeeeeelpCode:Rake taken FPPs 0.25c to 0.50c 2 0.51c to $1 3 $1.01 to $1.5 6 $1.51 to $2 9 $2.01 to $3 11 $3.01 to$5 13
Does iPoker calculate their points using contributed rake, total rake or by dealt rake? Many sites use contributed rake, which is the amount of rake divided by the # of players that VPIP'ed. Dealt rake is the total rake for the hand divided by the number of players who were dealt cards. And I believe total rake is the total rake for the hand on any hand you win. At the moment, HEM only calculates Dealt Rake, so this is most likely the cause of the discrepancy. Other rake calculation methods are in the works from what I can tell by reading posts from the mods, but I haven't seen an E.T.A. for them.
How does whether it is total rake or dealt rake make a difference? FPPs are calculated hand by hand and, according to how much was raked only in that hand and given out only if you were dealt cards. Doesn't "PKH.RakeAmount" mean that? I didn't make this custom stat, just tweaked the one you posted
btw the answer to your question is dealt rake, if that makes a difference
The way the rake is calculated greatly influences this. If they go by contributed rake, and you fold preflop without vpip, you get no credit for the hand. If they go by dealt rake, you get credit for the hand assuming there was some rake. As of right now, HEM only calculates dealt rake, so assuming iPoker doesn't use dealt rake, that is why the numbers are different.
Did you read my last post? FPPs are not given out according to dealt or contributed rake. If the rake in one hand in which you receive card is $1.54 for example, you get 9 FPPs immediately.
Doesn't the custom stat you posted add up all the rake taken in the hands you played and calculate FPPs?
What is "PKH.RakeAmount"? total rake for a single hand or dealt or contributed or whatever?
I don't know what to tell you man. HEM calculates it by dealt rake, and if your site does as well, it should be accurate. Try looking at some specific hand histories and comparing what you think your rake should be with what HEM should be. Your stat looks accurate to me. The only thing that can be wrong is the rake amounts.
