The Revolution Gaming Network was established on May 31, 2012. Prior to this time the network was refered to as the Cake Network.
This guide is intended for users who wish to manually configure PokerTracker 3 to import hand histories from the Revolution Poker Network in the event that hand histories are not automatically configured for import.
For information on installing and setting up PokerTracker 3, see the PokerTracker 3 Quick Start Guide.
PokerTracker 3 may not be automatically configured to import hand histories from your chosen Revolution Gaming Network poker client. You will have to configure PokerTracker manually in order for PokerTracker to automatically import hand histories.
You will notice immediately if your Revolution Gaming Network poker client is configured to automatically import hand histories by looking at the Auto Import tab. A checkmark will appear in the Auto field beside Revolution Poker Network as shown in the screenshot below.
