still possible to data mine Party?

[Jeffm351]

I managed to get set up on party and am wondering if its still possible to data mine tables w/ out sitting at them? I seem to only be getting HHs from tables im sitting at, but not when im observing.... and by observing i mean opening the tables so I can view the action...

I set up PT as follows

//////////////////

Go into 'File'-'Auto-import...set-up' menu and set download hand histories from hard drive (C:/Program Files/PartyPoker usually). I usually do this every 2 minutes (I have a slightly 'fragile' PC), though you can do it every 1minute if you prefer- if for some reason you have set autorate to rate yourself as well then you should probably make it 2 minutes in case it takes longer than 60 seconds to import and upsets the system. Click 'OK'.

An auto-import window will now open. Check the option 'auto-rate platers when importing..' Click the 'Configure Import of Observed Hands' button. I leave both the bottom boxes unchecked. The hand histories are imported from the same folder as before (C:/Program Files/PartyPoker) unless you have set up PT to write them elsewhere under the 'move processed files option' (you might want to keep observed files separate for data sharing with friends without showing your own stats for example)

Ok.. I will answer this one!

From Pat off the PT forums:

The hands are stored in the main folder (c:\program files\partypoker) with the file extension .HHF.

I was pointing it to the actual HH folder in the Party folder so I was not getting the observed HHs
