As most of you already know, analyzing your own game is the most important tool you have for success. Going over difficult hands, and even easy hands from time to time to see if you are maximising your profits and minimizing your losses is a practice all successful poker players take part in.
The most important tool in doing this are your Hand Histories. Your Hand histories or HH's allows you to compile all the hands you played in a given session or tournament into folders or softwares to analyze them and study your play as well as your opponent's play.
Up until recently it was difficult for players to obtain their text Hand histories, and the replay hand history was the only option readily available to players. Otherwise players had to email support or get the hands via purchasing software.
Now players have the option to save hand histories directly to their computer and access them instantly!
Attached is a screenshot of the Pacific Poker lobby and where you need to go to access your hand history options.
Once you have selected to save the hands to your hard drive, you'll be ready to go for all your HH needs!
Remember, anytime you have questions about a hand was played, feel free to post the hand history on the 888 forum in the strategy section to get all kinds of feedback from fellow players looking to improve their game also!
