If your goal is to play poker on a professional level, it could be tough to do without data mining. We talk not specifically about third-party software such as trackers, solvers, calculators, etc. Our site specializes in intelligent analysis of poker room data. In this article, we will talk more about how we mine iPoker statistics databases, in case you are interested in Red Star hand histories.
What is hand history mining?
Mining in this context is just a process of data gathering. It is a rather new term in poker, but it basically means the process of getting hand histories without the necessity of being at the table during games. In other words, we get other players’ hands.
A huge advantage of mining is that, while having these stats, you remain unknown to others.
Using Redstar mining allows you to obtain extensive and accurate statistical data on other opponents. This improves the quality of decisions made and increases the win rate, giving the player an important advantage at the selected tables.
How to use hand history mining on iPoker?
To get iPoker mining, you should contact our manager via social networks – Skype or Telegram. In your message, be sure to include:
- Game type: No-Limit Hold’em or Omaha Pot-Limit;
- Stakes played: NL10, NL20, NL30, NL50, NL100, NL200 and higher (same for PLO);
Next, the manager will inform you on the price and send you test package of hands. During business hours (from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. Moscow time), the average response time is around 15 minutes.
Before making a purchase, you can import test hands into any tracker. For example, in Holdem Manager hand import process looks like this:
- Go to the “Hand Import” section.
- Select the “Manual Hand Import” – “Import Folder” tabs.
- Specify the folder where hand histories are and click “OK”.
This way, you can use all the collected statistics to analyze and improve your game.
The Importance of Statistics
In poker, information is king. Anyone who possesses statistical databases and has Redstar mining gains an advantage, while its absence may lead to defeat.
Real-time statistics are becoming a major source of valuable data, especially at low and mid-stakes.
Parameters such as VPIP (voluntarily put money in pot), PFR (pre-flop raise frequency) and 3BET (3-bet frequency) help to understand a player‘s style and type, his tendencies and weaknesses. Even if you see a player for the first time in your life, those stats will give you a clear understanding of his playstyle.
In situations that require quick and accurate decisions, iPoker statistics become an invaluable assistant. The more data you have, the more accurate your decisions, which ultimately increases your win rate.
Currently, poker rooms didn’t come to a unanimous decision regarding the ban of third-party software like HUDs and the use of hand history mining. However, there are no such restrictions in iPoker network yet.
