Drop the file here
888 uses a bracketed amount style close to partypoker's, and rake is not always printed. Our reader infers the missing rake from the chips that were actually collected rather than leaving the pot unbalanced.
Where the files live
- Windows: Documents\888poker\HandHistory\<your screen name>
What usually goes wrong
- 888 is one of the rooms whose betting notation is least clearly documented, so we mark it beta and stop rather than guess when a hand does not balance.
- Nothing is recorded before the option is enabled.
Once you have the file
Two things are worth doing with it. The first is free: drop it into the statistics reader to get the numbers a tracker would have given you, or into the replayer to walk a hand street by street with the pot, the stack-to-pot ratio and the pot odds of each decision worked out for you. Both run in your browser: nothing is uploaded, and there is no account.
The second is the reason this site exists. A session debrief reads the whole file, picks the hands that decided the session, reviews them street by street and prices what each mistake cost in big blinds. The first one is free and complete.
Common questions
Where does 888poker store hand histories?
Documents\888poker\HandHistory\<your screen name> on Windows, once the option is enabled in the client.
One thing this is not
Everything on this page is about files from a session that is already over. Nothing here is usable during play, and real-time assistance is against the rules of every room listed.
Your session, debriefed
These calculators answer one spot. A debrief reads the whole session: the hands that decided it, reviewed street by street, and your leaks priced in big blinds. The first one is free and complete, not a preview.
No card. No subscription. $3 a session after that, and credits never expire.
