Full Review

SideGrind reads tournament .txt hand histories. You can add several files at once, and they stay in your browser while they're analysed.

• GGPoker

  1. Open GGPoker and click your profile icon, then PokerCraft.
  2. Find the tournament or session you want to review.
  3. Use PokerCraft's download/export option to save your own hands as a file.
  4. Upload the saved .txt file(s) here.

  SideGrind never connects to PokerCraft — you download the file yourself and choose what to upload.

• partypoker

  1. Open MyGame from partypoker or the poker client.
  2. Choose Export Hands.
  3. Pick the dates or session you played.
  4. Download the hand histories to your computer, then upload the .txt file(s) here.

  partypoker downloads are anonymised (you plus hidden opponent aliases) — that works fine for SideGrind.

• 888poker

  1. Go to User Settings → Game settings → Hand History.
  2. Turn on “Save My Hand History”.
  3. Note the destination folder shown (or set your own with Change Folder).
  4. After you play, upload the .txt files from that folder.

• iPoker (Grosvenor and other iPoker skins)

  1. Go to My Account → Settings → General.
  2. Turn on “Store Hand History Locally”.
  3. Note the hand-history folder shown.
  4. After you play, upload the .txt files from that folder.

  A typical default location is %appdata%\Local\<iPoker Client>\data\<Screenname>\History\Data, but this varies by skin — trust the folder your client shows you.

• WPN / Americas Cardroom

  1. In the lobby, go to Settings → Hand Histories.
  2. Note the Destination Folder — hand histories and tournament summaries are saved there automatically.
  3. Upload the tournament's hand-history .txt file(s) here.

  Upload the actual hand-history file, not a screenshot.

• PokerTracker 4 (alternative route)

  1. In PokerTracker 4, go to Database → Export.
  2. Open the Tournaments tab and select the tournament(s) you want.
  3. Choose Export Hands and pick a folder to save into.
  4. Upload the exported .txt hand-history files here.

  Advanced lets you filter by site or date if you want a specific session.

  A PT4 report or CSV is not the same thing as the hand-history file — SideGrind needs the original exported hand histories.
