5-Card Omaha

[Thorek]

Hi.

Recently P* added 5-Card Omaha and Courchevel. I would like to ask, if You are going to support those games?

[WhiteRider]

We are monitoring demand for this (and any other new games) and will consider adding support if they become popular enough. However, the database is not designed to store 5 card hands so it would be a significant job to add this so it won't happen in the short-term at least.

That's not good since, all traffic from Omaha H/L moved to 5-card Omaha H/L :/.

5c PLO is getting quite some traffic.
Atm there are 16 tables from .5/1 to 3/6.
Would love to have that game working (completly) with pt4.

We are monitoring demand for this...

So include me on the waiting list for both 5-card Omaha and Courchevel.

Currently PT4 reports Couchevel tables as unrecognized but seems to somehow work for 5-card Omaha tables, at least HUD displays stats for some players. Am I right that those stats are from normal PLO tables and the hands from 5-card Omaha tables are actually NOT imported? I would not like my database to be filled with incorrectly imported hands, I also would not like players' stats from normal PLO and 5-card Omaha to be mixed.

I believe that currently 5-card omaha hands are imported - we have this in our system to be blocked until such time as support for these is reconsidered.

Could you please specify how exactly 5-card omaha hands are imported/stored/treated by PT4?

I see that the hands I played contributed to the winnings graph, so yes, they are actually imported. And what are the consequences for my database?

[WhiteRider]

Currently they are treated like normal omaha hands except that the holecards are not stored (as far as I can tell).
I would suggest removing these sessions using Database > Purge Hands until we can get them blocked. I have reminded the development team about the need to do this and I hope it will be done soon.

While waiting for a perfect solution, please consider adding the new games even without hole card support. That way I could still track my own play for results and gather some HUDdable data for opponents also. Since you were already accidentally importing some hands without hole cards, this should not be a huge deal.

Edit: Obv I'm talking about Courchevel also.

Do you have an update on this, I am a long time HM customer but would switch if you can impliment a HUD and id be more than happy to be an annual fee as i realize the work such changes would require
