Caveat
You should only perform select queries. If you perform updates, inserts, or deletes, you may upset Poker Copilot.Overview
Poker Copilot's database schema is heavily de-normalised. It follows loosely the concept of a data warehouse, optimised for ad-hoc queries that "roll up" data. Queries will seldom join more than two tables together. You'll mostly use one table with redundant data, the so-called "Fact Table" in data warehouse terminology.The main fact table is playersummary. This contains data grouped by day, as well as several other key criteria: playerid, isplaymoney, tablesize, gametypeid, positionid, stakelevelid, and tournamentid. You should use this table most of the time.
There is a secondary fact table called gameplayersummary. This contains ungrouped data, one row per player per hand. Use this if you need a finer granularity than day.
Instead of date/time/timestamp fields, Poker Copilot often uses a integer field called dayid. This allows much faster querying than with regular date types.
Guidelines for fast queries
Include in your where clause at a minimum dayid, ishero, istournament, and isplaymoney. This will cause the database to use a good index. For example,select sum(timesseen)
from playersummary
where dayid>0
and ishero=true
and istournament=false
and isplaymoney=false
Example queries
Fetch the total times you've played real money ring gamesselect sum(timesseen)
from playersummary
where dayid>0 and
ishero=true and
istournament=false and
isplaymoney=false
Fetch your vpip percentange in real money tournaments since September 1st, 2009
select sum(vpip)*100/sum(timesseen)
from playersummary
where dayid >= 14488
and ishero=true
and istournament=true
and isplaymoney=false
Fetch your vpip percentange with decimal points in real money tournaments since September 1st, 2009
select sum(vpip)*100.0/sum(timesseen)
from playersummary
where dayid >= 14488
and ishero=true
and istournament=true
and isplaymoney=false
Now something complicated: vpip and pfr on full tilt 6-max no-limit hold'em cash tables while on the button on days in 2009 when you were on the button at last 50 times
select year, month, day,
sum(vpip)*100/sum(timesseen) as vpip,
sum(preflopraised)*100/sum(timesseen) as pfr
from playersummary
natural join day
where year = 2009
and ishero=true
and istournament=false
and isplaymoney=false
and positionid=3 -- button
and casinoid=1 -- Full Tilt
and gametypeid=3 -- no limit hold'em
and tableSize=6
group by year, month, day
having sum(timesseen) > 50
order by year desc, month desc, day desc
