Next step is to create a custom stat. I'll explain that one tonight after work :)


I see where you're going... nice. Look forward to next instalment which will be the key to getting this into a stat(s). Stab in the dark assessment, but there is some serious upside potential to this methodology.

The column for the stat is a single query.
Code: Select all
select group_rank from lookup_starting_hand_ranks lshr where lshr.id_holecard = (tourney_hand_player_statistics.id_holecard)

Make sure to tick the 'Group by' check box.

The stat itself is rather straightforward and can be used in any Hand Report.

Looking at it now, I would prefer to use different names for the tables, columns and stats. Something with holecard and the type of ranking in it to separate it from the built in _hand_rank_group columns.

Ok, after getting postgress sorted out (hard for PT4 to link to a db when postgres isn't running :oops: ), I created a table called 'hand_group' with two columns. First column (primary key) called 'id' which is just a sequential listing from 1 to 169. Second column called 'rank' that identifies which group (1-9) the id falls in to. Time consuming, but easy peasy.

When I try and create the column with:

Code: Select all
select group_rank from lookup_starting_hand_ranks lshr where lshr.id_holecard = (tourney_hand_player_statistics.id_holecard)

I get "The statement is not valid SQL".

Suggestions?

Code: Select all
SELECT group_rank FROM lookup_starting_hand_ranks AS lshr WHERE lshr.id_holecard = (tourney_hand_player_statistics.id_holecard)


It was missing an "AS".

I get the same result, not valid SQL.

@tarix: AS is optional in FROM items.

@PJs: Your table is called hand_group (and the columns also have different names) so the SQL should look something like this:

SELECT rank FROM hand_group hg WHERE hg.id = (tourney_hand_player_statistics.id_holecard)

But, rank() is a built in Postgres function so I think it's better to rename that column to something else (and change the SQL accordingly). Also, renaming the primary column to id_holecard might fix things.

One last thing is to put the SQL in one line, so no carriage-returns, because sometimes the PT4 parser will not accept this.

@ Bill,

Damn you Sir, you a dragging my old brain out of it's peaceful retirement.

I had a feeling the gist of the SQL statement was as you described, but would never have worked out that rank() may throw a shoe. Thanks for your help on this, will be back in 12 hours. (there are some benefits and impediments to living on the opposite side of the world)

Do you live on the opposite or do I live on the opposite side of the world :)
