How to Import Your Hands

In short: bring your history from PokerStars, GGPoker, CoinPoker or 888poker into the app — set it up once for auto-import (PokerStars, GGPoker and CoinPoker), or drag files in by hand (every room, including 888poker).

Plan: Free ✅ (importing is free on every plan)

What it's for

The app doesn't sit at your table: it analyzes the hand history that the poker site itself records. Every stat, diagnosis and replay is born from those hands. Importing is the first step — and the only one you repeat over time, as you play more.

You import under Hands → Management, where there are two ways.

Way 1 — Automatic (recommended)

Connect the folder where your history is saved once, and that's it: every time you open the app, new hands come in on their own — no exporting or dragging anything again.

  1. Under Management, open "Auto-import."
  2. Select the hand history folder for your site (the browser asks for permission — just accept).
  3. Leave it on. Next time you open the app, whatever is new gets imported automatically.

Works on Chrome, Edge or Opera on desktop (folder-access technology doesn't exist on mobile or Safari). On mobile, use the manual way.

Way 2 — Manual (drag and drop)

  1. Under Management, go to the manual importer.
  2. Drag the .txt files (or the .zip from GGPoker/CoinPoker) into the upload area.
  3. The app reads them and shows how many hands were found, new and duplicate.

Where to get the file from each site

  • PokerStars (regular tables or Zoom): turn on history recording in the PokerStars client and locate the Hand History folder. They're .txt files, one per session.
  • GGPoker (Rush & Cash): export the history through GGPoker's own tool (comes as a .zip).
  • CoinPoker: export the history through the CoinPoker client's own tool (comes as a .zip).
  • 888poker: export the hand history through the 888poker client's own reporting tool (comes as a .txt). This room doesn't have Way 1 (auto-import) yet — always use Way 2 (manual).

What the app understands

  • 6-max, 9-max and HU (heads-up) cash games from PokerStars (regular tables and Zoom), GGPoker (regular tables and Rush & Cash), CoinPoker and 888poker, stakes NL2 to NL25.
  • Tournaments (MTT and Sit & Go) from PokerStars, GGPoker and CoinPoker: import the hand history .zip/.txt as usual — the app recognizes it's a tournament and keeps it separate from cash. The financial result (ROI, ITM, finish) shows up under Finances → Tournaments, and the hands themselves live in Hands → Tournaments. Stats, Exploits, Diagnostics, ranges, Training and the Mentor still only look at cash — tournaments don't feed those yet (Pocket Pairs is the exception: it already works for single-table 9-max Sit & Go with 60bb+ stacks). The Short Deck ("6+ Hold'em") variant remains out of scope — if your file mixes that with a supported cash/ tournament format, the app imports what it recognizes and tells you how many hands were skipped.
    • CoinPoker is a known exception: its hand history never includes finish position or prize anywhere (not a bug on our end — it's the room's own export format) — the app warns you about this at import time, and the financial result for your tournaments from that room may stay incomplete (buy-in shows up, the prize doesn't).
    • PokerStars and GGPoker have a Tournament Summary (TS) in addition to the Hand History (HH) — two files per tournament. The HH carries the hands; the TS carries finish/prize/entry count more accurately. Send both when they exist: the app matches them automatically by tournament number, and one never overwrites the other with empty data.
  • It identifies which hands are yours by your Hero alias (the nick you use on each site) — check that it's correct in Settings → Profile. On GGPoker and CoinPoker you don't need to set a nick: the site itself already anonymizes you as "Hero" in the history. On PokerStars and 888poker you do need to set your nick — without it the app can't tell which hands are yours.

Tips

  • Re-import without worry: repeated hands are ignored automatically (dedupe). Importing the same file twice doesn't duplicate anything.
  • The more hands, the better: a few thousand already give a useful picture; tens of thousands sharpen the diagnosis.
  • GGPoker takes a while: GG doesn't record on its own and takes a few minutes to write all of the session's hands to the file. If hands are missing, download the history again later and re-import.
  • A rejected file or import error: the report shows a "Contact support" button on the file itself. It opens WhatsApp with the file name and the notice already filled in; if possible, also attach a screenshot. The app does not send the file or your hands automatically.

Common questions

  • I imported and nothing showed up. Confirm the file is the site's .txt hand history and that the hands are cash or tournament games in a supported format. If it persists, contact Support.
  • A session's hands are missing. This is usually GGPoker still writing the file — re-import later.
  • Can I delete imported hands? Yes, under Management you can see your import history and delete a batch.
  • Is my data visible to others? No. Everyone only sees their own hands; nothing is public unless you choose to share it in the Community.
  • My tournament file was rejected (header/table not recognized). Send the site's original history, without running it through any third-party conversion app — those tools rewrite the hand header into their own format, and the app stops being able to tell which room it came from. Export it again straight from the PokerStars/GGPoker/CoinPoker client and re-import.
