This is the support thread for 888/Party/StarsCaption, multi-purpose utilities for the 888, bwin.party, Poker Stars site
Hi
You don't need StarsCapiton for this
You can find several custom notes here, for example
This works but seems to prevent stars updates which isn't ideal. Would it be possible to incorporate this into stars caption?
Hi
Try to check #1 and #6
Thanks. Yes 1 and 4 are all fine. Everything seems to be working as expected though with the new update today.
Hi
Do you need it for openraise/isolate or for 3bet/squeeze?
And in which of Captions? (WianamaxCaption and 888Caption have nc variable and StarsCaption doesn't, therefore, it is possible to do this only indirectly and not in all situations there)
I want for 3bet/squeeze and I use StarsCaption.. I try with some formulas but I don't have the result that I expected

You can't get the number of callers directly, but this value (pot-bb-sb-antes-raise) is a part of the pot that the calls added, so you can divide it to raise and get their number (it won't work quite right if one of them is on sb or bb)
Next you need to multiply this amount by bb, so the result is
12bb+(pot-bb-sb-antes-raise)/raise*bb
Next, in the bet settings, you can set up rounding up to 1bb, this should compensate for the inaccuracy of calculating the number of callers.
Let me know if it works
There isn't a way to do a hotkey for like multiple limpers right for preflop raise on stars right? Example, for every limper, you want to make it 2.1x + limper? So say 3 limpers. You want it to make it 5.1x.
I believe you said stars no longer allowed this function anymore with starscaption? I believe on 888caption, that still works?

In 888Caption or WinamaxCaption you can use a direct formula like
2.1bb+nc*bb
or
(2.1+nc)*bb
There is no nc variable in StarsCaption (you are right here), but you can use some indirect ways with calculations from the size of the pot, like this:
2.1bb+pot-bb-sb-antes
They won't always give an accurate result, but for most cases this is good enough.
With stars caption, I'm confused with what you posted above with the
2.1bb+pot-bb-sb-antes
I type it exactly like that in betting hotkeys tab?
Is it possible where I double click on the stars table and then it sets this as the preflop raise size? Or you can't manually double click your mouse on the table for this as hotkey? I believe 888caption has no issue with double click to set up a preflop raise size.
Thanks.

You can use it anywhere you want - in betting hotkeys, HUD betting buttons or betscript.
Yes I think you can use doubleclick as a hotkey
I made a description for all new options in StarsCaption Spins resistrator
The following topics has been added:
Based on open tables mode (there was no description of it on the site at all, there was only a short description in the program itself)
New version of Advanced registration sequence (there was a description for the old spins lobby on the site, I removed it and added a description for the current version that works with a new spins lobby)
How to avoid the lobby popping up in Sim... - a small FAQ on this non-obvious topic
Added a description about manual pause

I entered that into hotkey/betting hotkeys. However, how do you make the hotkey as a double click?
If I was to enter that formula into betscript, it would be in advanced betscript and add new bet. However, you then click on preflop but then choose which one? Unopened pot or opened pot (small raise) or opened pot (big raise) It should be opened pot but which raise?
So putting the formula into betscript as oppose to hotkey would make your bet slider automatically set at the raise amount right? But making it a hotkey would require you to click the hotkey before it sets up to the raise amount?
You said you could even use this formula into the hud and table panel. If you do that though, you could labeled the format string as say x right and clicking on the x would set the bet size to that?
There is no issue if you do this formula into all 3 options right?
PaulyJames200x,

Choose LDblClick from the drop-down list

However, you then click on preflop but then choose which one?
Unopened pot

Right
But making it a hotkey would require you to click the hotkey before it sets up to the raise amount?
If betscript worked, then all you have to do is click the Raise button or use the Raise hotkey.
You can use Betting hotkey in this situation if you want to set any different sizing.
You can write in Format string any text you want. If you don't know how to set up a HUD betting button - read here and watch the video.
There is no issue if you do this formula into all 3 options right?
Yes, you can use all of these options at the same time if you want.
I entered that formula into hud/table panel.
Format string, I just put a letter like W. Thus if I click on the W letter that is on the stars table, it would then set the bet size.
On click is Bet
Betformula
2.5bb+pot-bb-sb-antes
Now when one player limps, pressing the K does seem to set it to 3.5bb. However, when multiple players limp, it doesn't seem to do it correctly? Is there a mistake here?
Now if someone raises preflop and you click on the K, it seems to show a strange 3bet size. So you never click on that when someone raises pre right? It's only when action is on you and at least one player limped? This is useless if there is preflop raise at any point before it gets to you?
I also added that formula in hotkeys/betting hotkeys. I used a regular character for the hotkey like the letter e.
Formula
2.5bb+pot-bb-sb-antes
But you check out it on the left side, it shows this
When I click on the e, it seems to set up the preflop bet the same like with the K which it's suppose to do. But it's not correct with the preflop bet size?
PaulyJames200x,

This formula will work for openraise / isolate only, it is not intended for 3betting

I don't see any errors. If this formula doesn't work for you with multiple limpers, show me a table screenshot with a game situation where it worked incorrectly.

What do you mean on 'not correct'?
Show me a screenshot of a table where you used this hotkey and the program inserted the wrong bet.
Okay I have to check again if it's working correctly or not. I think I might have noticed it incorrect because there was a preflop raise which would make this not work.
Hi - recently got into Saulo Costa's Timing Tells course and turned on timing for actions in StarsCaption, but I don't see an equivalent feature in Party Caption?
Hello,
I'm having issues setting up the %pot bet buttons on Stars. I tried finding an answer to this from the thread but unfortunately couldn't:
E.g.

This results to a different size of bet than PS native betting buttons, which I assume is caused by my formula not considering opponent bets. The issue only occurs if flop is say 5bb and villain has bet 1.25bb to the pot.
If I'm 1st one to bet this formula works as intended, but it doesn't seem to count prior bets.
Thanks in advance.

Hi
Try to change a formula to this:
x1.25
This formula will work for both bets and raises
This is described here, for example
My Virus protection won't allow me to update PartyCaption to 2.19f. Haven't had any problems updating it before?
I'm still stuck on McAfee+Defender. I know how to release it from quarantine but McAfee blocks it even when I try to run the exe after that. When I tried to run it as an administrator I think Windows blocked it. Using Windows 11.
Yes, I see on virustotal that McAfee has a false positive on this version (unfortunately this happens from time to time with various antiviruses).
I just sent a false alarm report via
, I hope they remove it soonFor now you can try to add PCaption.exe to exclusions in McAfee settings, or try install one of previous versions, you can find it here.
