How To Play

HAND HISTORY

Like anything else worthwhile, improving your poker game takes practice. Simply put, the more you play, the better you're likely to get. That said, playing poker without analyzing why some hands and maneuvers work better than others will only take you so far.

If you really want to take your game to next level, it is important to analyze your play day-by-day, which is why we've introduced our new Hand History feature.

This great tool automatically tracks each hand you play and stores the information in a file on your hard drive so that you can review it whenever you want. To get started, just follow these easy instructions:

  • Click on Options in the menu bar at the top of the lobby screen
  • Click on Hand History at the bottom of the pull-down menu

  • Check the Save My Hand Histories box and select the number of days you want to keep your hand histories for - you can also change the file where you store the hand histories on your computer by clicking the Change Folder button
  • Click OK

Once you finish a poker session, you can access your hand histories by doing the following:

  • Right click on the Start button on the bottom left of your computer screen
  • Click on Explore
  • Open the Hand History folder - this is the folder you specified in the Hand History Configuration menu and, for most people, it will be C:\Program Files\Full Tilt Poker.net.org\HandHistory\
  • Locate and open the folder labeled with your username - hand history folders will be created for each individual Full Tilt Poker.net.org player who uses your computer
  • Locate the table and date you want to view, and double click the file to open it

Make good use of your hand histories and your future at the poker tables will be much brighter.
