PokerTracker

I've searched the forum and googled the message. I have the small stakes version of PT4. The problem is that I haven't played higher than the limits allowed. However, I suspect that I mistyped the buyin for a SNG. Instead of typing 3 for buyin amount, I might have typed 33 or something like that. Is there a way to find the tourney and fix it? I looked in the Purge Hands utility, but the maximum stake that are being shown is 50NL (never played higher) and an $8 SNG (never played higher). Maybe I need to connect to my Postgresql DB and do it manually? Thanks...

If you've not used PGAdmin before you might want to backup your poker data before making any changes there as making database changes outside of PokerTracker 4 isn't supported. Close PokerTracker 4 and then you can access PGAdmin by clicking your Windows Start button then typing:

pgadmin

and then clicking on it when it appears. Double click on 'PostgreSQL x.y' (where x.y is your PostgreSQL version) and if your prompted for a password the default is 'dbpass' (without the quotes). Next double click on 'Databases -> YOUR_DATABASE_NAME -> Schemas -> Public -> Tables'. Right-click on the 'tourney_summary' table, choose 'View Data -> View All Rows', find the relevant tournament, edit the value in the 'amt_buyin' column and save the change (File -> Save'). If you have trouble finding the tournament you can sort by the 'amt_buyin' column using 'Tools -> Sort/Filter'.

That did it. It wasn't a $3.30 tourney that I mistyped. It was my last $5.50 that I mistyped as a 50 buyin with 0.50 fee. I don't have many tourneys in my database, so it was easy to find. Thanks for helping me...

Pleased to hear you sorted it.
