Feeler - anyone willing to pay for this service? Player / Pool Analysis with visualizations
I have been working on a program that imports all my hand histories into a database ... from there I can run database queries and create visual reports using PowerBI (or potentially other means if necessary).
The idea is to have the ability to quickly analyze a specific spot where you believe an opponent (or your play pool as a whole) is exploitable.
Here is an example for a specific villain in my pool facing a delayed CBet on the Turn in a heads up single raised pot (open raised - no limpers). The pie chart shows how often they fold/call/raise and you can select bet sizings, what the pot size was, etc... There are tabs for different board textures, and you can select Turn cards to see if the player's reaction changes based on the Turn.
Other spots can be done besides this particular spot - it can take a while to write the queries - this particular one and the PowerBI report took a whole day. Pretty much any data point (that's available in a hand history or can be deduced from the hand history) can be in the reports.
All names blacked out because I'm a paranoid SOB ... 😃
I can beat US sites up to 50NL possibly 100NL - but know I have tons of room to improve - so if there are any proven coaches/crushers out there that might be able to use this service - perhaps I could also trade this service for coaching.
I'm also searching for a job as a data analyst outside of the poker industry.

Imagine posting this on a forum owned by Hand2Note....
It looks like this kind of graph is already provided by HM3 as well
I know Hand2Note has very powerful reporting. I use H2N as my HUD.
A lot of the time I want to *quickly* drill down to very specific information on the pool and/or a certain player. Such as maybe facing DCB on a certain board vs a certain sizing and within literally 1-2 seconds being able to switch between any player - or the pool as a whole, change a sizing or board etc.
I can easily see when I'm getting exploited by a player with these reports - because I can filter to a spot and see my net win/loss vs that player in a specific spot. Then I could use this information to build a better plan against that player.
Yeah, I can find some of this info just going through hands in H2N or HM3, but it's very inefficient compared to having a premade report for that spot. HM3 is definitely better for this in my experience but still tedious even with saved filters.
If H2N has these reports already where you don't have to set up a filter - or where the info gets as specific as I'm talking - that is news to me. That is why I posted this as a feeler though 😃
Basically any spot someone could want a report on - I can build.
I won't post specifics, because I don't like giving out ideas for free or anything that could give me an edge in today's games ... but I have actually have been able to use this method to track certain ranges which H2N and HM3 are both completely incapable of tracking, despite my efforts to try creating definitions for these ranges both in H2N and NoteCaddy.
Downside is you have to regularly import hands, review the data and update a player's notes to see if they made any adjustments.
Nitty gritty on this stuff eg. villain facing delayed cbet on Broadway Low low low, no flush completer -- the problem you'll run into (for most customers) is sample. Maybe it'll show you population tendencies, but rarely useful for individual.
If you're trying to bring this product to market I think you want to build a clear and concise argument regarding how it contrasts with what other trackers offer, and how it would be used to gain edge. Ease of use is also a big factor.

No plans right now. The main thing is this approach allows you to look at situations in a more granular way than H2N/HM3 allows. That and certain spots/situations as I mentioned which H2N/HM3 are (currently) unable to filter down to or track.
seems like everything H2N can do ( i have a 11m hand data base ) with Hand 2 Note
custom filters / pop ups made ,
there is GTO stat checker pop ups u can buy ( MTT Stat Checker by Mobius POker )
or Performance MTT -
n work with guys who have 3000+ hours with H2N custom work - to make your own
also guys " Like a G6 " , who is top of the food chain for DB reveiws, uses H2N with his own custom stats / filters etc
but yeah what can this do that Hand 2 Note cannot do??
u can make any custom stat / filter u want with H2N
i still dont see what this can do that H2N cannot
would be interested to know
