Duplicate hands importing

[antneye]

I tried this twice and got similar results.

First: Converted PT3 and HEM2 d-base into PT4 by accident. Although they were the same databases comprised of the exact same hands, PT4 imported everything and doubled my results.

Second: I created a new d-base and imported all hands that I had from a PT3 export of the same d-base. I then went to my 2012 play and imported all original HH's since I have them (but since PT3 trial expired in first week of January they were not all in the PT3 d-base). Thinking I wouldn't have an issue I simply imported all 2012 hands. When I checked the results I found that the small sample of hands that had been in the PT3 d-base for 2012 play were duplicated once again.

Conclusion: PT4 (for me) is not recognizing duplicates properly and is duplicating results in the d-base.

Has anyone else seen this occur?

What site(s) do you play at?

This could be related to the way that non-numeric hand numbers are handled - PT4 now stores them in their real format, whereas PT3 converted them to a number. It could be that hands like that are not being matched up correctly.

My present play is at Cake and RPM (Merge), but it sure appeared to have happened for my old play on Stars and Tilt in the example where I converted both PT3 and HEM2 d-base by accident. I delted the d-base though so I cannot confirm.

Thanks - we'll check it out.
