I. Overview
The database player list displays players in the database and statistics about
these players. This lets you view things like the percentage of players
that are positive, the amount of rake being paid, and to optionally display this information
broken down by things like game limits.
II. Usage
To use, just press "Get Data". You can optionally enter
a number in the "Summary player hands limit" box, to limit
the statistics displayed in the text box to only players who
have played a certain number of games.
"Sort by" allows you to sort alphabetically, by total won/lost, by
average big bets won/lost per hand, and by number of hands seen.
If you press any of the "Sort by" radio buttons twice in a row,
the sort order will be reversed.
When you press get data, every player in the database will always
be displayed in the list, no matter what filter settings you have. For each player,
statistics about how much they have won/lost, their big bets won/lost
per hand (for no-limit and pot-limit
games, a big bet is defined as double the big blind),
how many hands were seen with this player, their "did not fold preflop"
percentage, and how much rake
they have paid will be displayed. Statistics for all players are also
displayed. These statistics are for all hands in the database that
pass the filter settings, if a filter is set.
The rake is calculated for split pots by splitting the rake up among
all winners, with any remainder after dividing the rake by the number
of winners given to the winner with the lowest seat number. For example,
if three players, seats 1, 3, and 8 won a split pot, and $1 was paid in rake,
then seat 1 will have paid $0.50 , with seats 3 and 8 paying $0.25 in rake.
The statistics displayed for all qualifying players are defined as below
(a player qualifies if they have played at least "Summary player hands limit"
number of hands):
Note about percentage of positive players:
Most players seem to observe that from 30-40% of players online
are positive according to the hands in their databases. Are that
many players winning players you ask? The answer is no!
A player having overall positive results over less than a couple thousand hands
does not mean that player
is a winning player.
Most players in your database probably have played a relatively small number
of hands.
You need to observe a player for thousands of hands before you can
determine if they are a winning or losing player. So, can you just filter
for players who you have played thousands of hands with? If you filter and
view data for only players who you have played thousands of hands
with, you will tend to only view data on the winning players, and this
skews the results even more. You should now find an even larger number of
winning players.
