Tagging Hands

Overview

PokerTracker 4 lets you tag hands in your database and on the tables, pull up tagged hands, and customize your own tags. Tagging makes it easy to retrieve certain hand types for later review and analysis.

Tagging Hands

You can tag hands two ways: directly from the HUD while playing, or from your database afterward.

From the HUD

To tag hands from your HUD, left-click the tag icon and scroll down to the hand you want to tag. You can also tag the current hand by choosing Tag Hand In Progress. Tagging during play lets you revisit a hand after the session and add notes at that time, minimizing in-game distractions. Once tagged, these hands can be retrieved in your database by sorting for the selected tag.

Sorting Tagged Hands

There are two easy ways to review tagged hands in PokerTracker 4:

  • Check Show Marked Hands Only to show only hands that have a tag or note.
  • Select a specific tag (or tags) from the drop-down menu to sort by it.

When you're done, deselect the tag(s) from the drop-down menu and Refresh the report.
