Hand History Analyzer

Analyze hand histories from online poker sites in JavaScript & TypeScript. Works in conjunction with Hand History Parser.

Installation

Add @poker-apprentice/hand-history-analyzer as a dependency.

  • yarn:
    yarn add @poker-apprentice/hand-history-analyzer
  • npm:
    npm install @poker-apprentice/hand-history-analyzer --save

Usage

This package exports an analyzeHand function that can be used for analyzing hand histories that have been parsed by Hand History Parser's parseHand function. To use it, simply pass a parsed hand history to the function.

// assumes `handHistory` is an object returned by `parseHand`
const stats = analyzeHand(handHistory);
console.log(handHistory);

The value returned is represented as a HandHistoryStats type object. For example:

{
  "hand": {
    "totalPot": "57.4",
    "totalRake": "0.5",
  },
  "players": {
    "Mike": {
      "aggressiveActionCount": 0,
      "bountiesWon": "0",
      "streets": {
        "flop": {
          "betCount": 1,
          "bets": {},
          "callCount": 0,
          "checkCount": 0,
          "foldCount": 0,
          "raiseCount": 0,
        },
        "preflop": {
          "betCount": 0,
          "bets": {
            "2": 1,
          },
          "callCount": 0,
          "checkCount": 0,
          "foldCount": 0,
          "raiseCount": 1,
        },
        "turn": {
          "betCount": 1,
          "bets": {},
          "callCount": 0,
          "checkCount": 0,
          "foldCount": 0,
          "raiseCount": 0,
        },
      },
      "totalActionCount": 3,
      "totalAwarded": "56.9",
      "totalContributed": "27.45",
      "totalRakeContributed": "0.5",
      "totalWon": "29.45",
      "tournamentPlacementPrize": "0",
      "vpip": true,
      "wentToShowdown": true,
    },
  },
}

For anonymous poker sites (i.e.: sites that don't display usernames or otherwise obfuscate player information while playing), only the "hero" will be included in the players object included in the return value. For all other sites, the players object will include all players who were involved in the hand.

For insight into the intention of each key in the return value, refer to the TypeScript types.
