Posts: 98 -
So you have a hand that you want to share on the forum, but you aren't sure how to post it? Well look no further! Just do the following:
1. Register/Log-In: Only registered users that are logged in can start threads.
2. Start A Thread: Start a new thread in the Poker Hand Forum by clicking the 'New Discussion' button near the top of the page. Please note that you need to make 1-2 posts in the forum BEFORE you will have the option to start your own thread (this is to minimize spam on the forum).
3. Add Your Hand: Either type the hand out manually, or use a hand converter if you are sharing an online poker hand. If you are converting a hand, make sure to choose the phpbb forums output if it's offered. For instance, if you convert your hand with http://www.handconverter.com/, you'd select the following from the drop-down menu:
If you add a hand manually, you can use the card suits on the right to spice up your post since 9

looks prettier than 9s 9h

I mean one that can automatically generate the hand in an online format like Pokerstars hand histories.
ShareMyPair does something like this: http://www.sharemypair.com/
What i have been doing sometimes for re-creation of a live hand, i just open my Borgata(PartyPoker) hand (text file itself), and i re-write the hand as it happened in live game using same format. Then i use one of the sites, like the one Split shared, to convert into HTML format to post somewhere or paste into email.
Here is an example of hand copied directly by using that button:
BTN: $5.45 (VPIP: 46.30, PFR: 11.11, 3Bet Preflop: 0.00, Hands: 54)
SB: $25.10 (VPIP: 55.71, PFR: 25.71, 3Bet Preflop: 6.90, Hands: 71)
Hero (BB): $25.89
UTG: $39.81 (VPIP: 89.75, PFR: 17.70, 3Bet Preflop: 6.92, Hands: 336)
MP: $54.14 (VPIP: 21.72, PFR: 11.14, 3Bet Preflop: 4.61, Hands: 1,131)
CO: $44.90 (VPIP: 27.39, PFR: 14.02, 3Bet Preflop: 3.90, Hands: 790)
SB posts SB $0.10, Hero posts BB $0.25
Pre Flop: (pot: $0.35) Hero has 9:diamond: T:diamond:
UTG raises to $0.50, MP calls $0.50, fold, BTN calls $0.50, SB calls $0.40, Hero calls $0.25
Flop: ($2.50, 5 players) 4:club: T:heart: 2:spade:
SB checks, Hero checks, UTG checks, MP checks, BTN bets $2.37, fold, Hero calls $2.37, fold, fold
Turn: ($7.24, 2 players) Q:club:
Hero checks, BTN bets $2.50, Hero calls $2.50
River: ($12.24, 2 players) 6:spade:
Hero checks, BTN bets $0.08 and is all-in, Hero calls $0.08
[spoil]Hero shows 9:diamond: T:diamond: (One Pair, Tens) (Pre 45%, Flop 86%, Turn 86%)
BTN mucks 8:diamond: J:club: (High Card, Queen) (Pre 55%, Flop 14%, Turn 14%)
Hero wins $11.72[/spoil]
Can somebody who is using Hold'em Manager 2 check to see if their Copy To Forum button uses same 2+2 format? Just posting a reply and clicking a preview instead of submit will show if hand is parsed correctly. (Asking 'cause i don't want to install HM2 specifically to check this small little thing)
**De-rail**
I am going to have to look into that Galaxy Note 3. Any additional thoughts on the phone?
i cant converte my hand historie, i copy the raw handhistorie in the hand historie box, but it wont let me converte it, it says no valid hand data could be detected
it's very possible the site you are getting the HH from doesn't convert with that HH converter. Can you try another HH converter? There are plenty around if you do a quick google search for "Hand history converter for XYZ site"
can i use this raw hand history and play it in video replayer in my pt4 is there a quick and easy way to do so without having to save the raw text to my computer
Unfortunately not. PT4 would need the actual raw HH file - not the forum output =(
It works quite good also for this forum - maybe you will only need to delete some characters (like ":", titles), but it takes less than 1 minute.
I hope this will help you.
I ran into the same problem, and this is what i found:
If you are using FTP and PT4 the hand is recognized as a PS hand, but it says "Full tilt poker hand" in the HH text. This confuses the converter. You can fix this two ways:
1) Replace "Full tilt poker" with Pokerstars at the beginning of the HH.
2) Play on PS, not on the FTP skin to begin with.

This works too: http://www.handconverter.com/tools/generator
After you post 1-2 times in the forum (like you just did here), you will unlock the ability to start threads and post hands. It's just a security precaution to reduce forum spam.
Can't wait to see your hands!
Fixed. Thanks for the heads up @Vincent R !
Edit: I logged out and in and I'm alright now. Sorry for the impatience.
pokerhand.org
There u can choose phpbb option as well ;)
For now I am just using the card emoji buttons to replace the cards from the PT4 HH.
So at the moment I use the upswing poker converter, but there's no possibility to show betting amounts in BB.
Does anyone know a converter that converts the betting amounts in bb?
The hand2note converter is also quite good with a lot of options but there I get no forum text but only a picture or a link.
I'm glad about any suggestions :-)
