Alias problems

[murmanman]

Before I have PT4, I used Holdem Manager 1.
And I can create alias with any players.

In PT4 I see "You cannot alias a screen name that has played hands against the player"

Why??
Please create alias, where I can add any player. Thank you.

It doesn't make sense to alias players together when they have played in the same hand, because that would mean that the same player made multiple actions in one hand, and won/lost different amounts. I understand that HM do aliases differently to PokerTracker, and we both have our reasons which determines how we handle aliases.
If you explain what you're trying to do we may be able to offer you a different solution.

Maybe you find a solution for me.
I want to have alias for different players(eg. one alias for 10 regs) such as reg, fish, etc. to find out, how the population of these players play against me or better say, how can i defend against them.

You can do next create report

my reports new report

then

Filters > Add Expression Filters and

str_player_name = 'XXX' OR str_player_name = 'XXX' OR str_player_name = 'XXX'

where XXX - players name


save report.


add new report with "fish players"

What you can do is create an All Players report in the My Reports area and add Filter Expressions to see only data from the players you want -- the summary line will average everything together.

I try that, thank you
