Pop up Stats

The HUD profile in question is one I imported from PT3. No errors reported during the import process. Clicking on a HUD stat for the popup I get this:

I"m a little confused by this also. i'm not opposed to using one of the new PT4 HUD profiles, but am just trying to use one of my own as a reference to figure out how to change HUD stats, etc.

I have no experience with conversion of HUD profiles from PT3, so I am going to have to defer to one of my team members on this one - but I can let you know that stats in red are placeholders. These are stats that could not convert for one reason or another. Common reasons include

  • The stat name has changed slightly (for example VP$IP is now VPIP and W$SD is now WSD)
  • We have totally renamed the stat to be consistant with modern poker terminology, nomenclature, or to clarify the intention of the stat (RFI is now Raise First In)
  • Most custom stats will import form PokerTracker 3, but not all... if your PT3 custom stat will not match the new PT4 database schema requirements then the stat will be rejected

PJ - your HUD is virtually the same as the PT3 Classic (Positional) HUD built into PT4, with some additional custom stats. Your best bet may be to start with the HUD profile built into PT4 and recreate the missing components, you will find this method the fastest and most reliable because you will get to use the PT4 Positional Popups which a ridiculously fast to populate with data. Once you have the stats populated, convert to freeform to bring this format into the drag and drop editor so you can define the width of the columns. As a reminder "Blinds" and "LP" no longer exist in PT4, we qualify blinds, button and cutoff individually going forward. For your W$SD When Bet/Raise stat use the built in stat called WSDWTR. We do not have an equivalent stat built in for Went to Showdown when Bet/Raise on the turn, that will have to be built. Also take a look at our Saw River stat, and explore the many new stats shipped with by default when selecting Configure - Statistics.

Good advice: You will often find that our defaults may actually work better than anything you may be used to in PT3, we really did our homework by including some of the best statistical minds and world-class players who provided constant feedback during development. Start with our defaults and then modify from there. Good luck!
