live_amt_bb, _sb & _ante

At the moment the live_amt_bb, _sb & _ante are taken from the last imported hand history. Is it possible to extract these from the table window titles? It would make them really 'live' and much more useful, especially in (hyper) turbo sng's/mtt's.

For example, the PokerStars table windows do inlcude small blind, big blind and ante in the window title.

I assume these window titles are already used to find the tables for the hud so I hope this can be done quite easily. :mrgreen:

It's not as easy as it sounds to make that happen. I agree for tournaments this would be a nice improvement though.

I see why. You do not have any relation between your 'live' tables and other tables where the site tournament/table number is stored. Why is id_tourney not a foreign key in live_tourney_player and/or live_tourney_table? Would have made it much easier for my C-function trigger to update the latter with the correct blinds and antes :mrgreen:

Is there any chance some times it will be done?
Thanks in advance!

I alerted the development team to this issue when it came up last winter, and I don't have any further update beyond that.

OK, thank you!
It would be an amazing update, and it seems to be not really difficult to do once you already reed information from the window title! And it's quite important, in hyperturbo SNGs - which are so popular nowadays - approximately 20% of the hands are concerned!
