PStars: Observing Tables, I Don't See Hands

[TomBrooklyn]

I don't see hands on tables I'm observing. I have PAHUD set up to see observed hands. Aren't I supposed to see hands?

PokerStars does not write the hand histories from observed hands to your computer. As such, PokerTracker (and PAHUD) has no way of knowing what occurred in those hands. You can use the Memory Scanner to show statistics on observed tables, but this will not import any new statistics (or show you mucked cards) for observed hands. To turn on the Memory Scanner in PAHUD, click Options --> Preferences. Go to the PokerStars settings under Poker Sites and select the "Use Memory Scanner" button.

Oh. The difference in the settings is just that Memory Scanner allows you to see stats on any players you have stats on, and the other setting wouldn't show those stats. OK. Thanks.
