The Poker Copilot User Guide was horribly out of date. There is now a new PDF user guide, updated for Poker Copilot 3. You can download it from our support page. It is currently only available as a PDF. I’m hoping to get motivated to do the drudge work of converting it to HTML real soon now.
Unopened PFR is a measure of how often you raise preflop all the players before you either checked or folded.
I want to make this identical in calculation with Hold’em Manager. So a question for my customers who also have Windows and HEM: should the denominator be the number of hands you’ve played? Or the number of times you had an opportunity to make an unopened preflop raise? The latter seems more logical to me.
Poker Copilot 3.04 is now available to download.

I like Google Analytics. I use it daily, and have done so for years. A week or so ago, Google Analytics received a nice user interface update. Graphs are better looking, and the site is easier to navigate. But one change disappoints me: line charts no longer start the y-axis at 0. Here’s a chart of Poker Copilot sales in recent weeks, produced by Google Analytics:
It looks like my sales last week were about 10 times higher than the week before. That’s not the case at all. This chart starts the y-axis at a value slightly lower than the smallest data point. I now find the chart misleading. My sales really don’t have so much variance from week to week. Poker Copilot is a mature product that has reasonably consistent sales.
There are cases where it is useful not to start the y-axis at 0. This is not one of them.
The Poker Copilot website in Russian is here. The video is in English with Russian subtitles.
Instead of using a separate domain name for the russian version, I’ve used the main Poker Copilot website domain: http://pokercopilot.com/ru/. The reason for this is that getting a .ru domain name is complicated and expensive, especially if you are not operating directly in Russia. I’ll be interested to see if I get a Google PageRank benefit for this new website from using my long-establish Poker Copilot domain.
Sometimes I err. Like the current update, which I didn’t test with Mac OS X Leopard (10.5). And it turns out it doesn’t work on Leopard. For now, there is a work-around update of Poker Copilot 3.02 specifically for Leopard:

I’ve created a new “Recent Updates” web page that allows you to easily find and download older updates of Poker Copilot. This will help if a similar situation occurs in the future. You can then simply go back one version.
Poker Copilot 3.02 is now available to download.
The first time you run this update, your Poker Copilot database will be updated. This will take a long time. You can’t use Poker Copilot until the update is finished. As a guide, my database of 600,000 hands takes about 30 minutes to update on a current model iMac with a SSD hard drive.
Step 1 (for ring games) and Step 6 (for tournaments) take the most time.

The next Poker Copilot update will be available in Spanish (the variety from Spain, as well as the Latin American variety):
This update should be available later today or tomorrow.
Now both the Poker Copilot website and Poker Copilot itself are in Spanish.
Loyal Poker Copilot user Sébastien asks a good question:
Why don’t you say Double Barrel and “Fold to Double Barrel” instead of “continuation bet on turn” and “fold to cbet on turn”?
Which do you think is better? Let me know in the comments.
Posting screenshots of changes in recent days helped me discover some simple mistakes, such as some pre-flop stats in the post-flop section. I’ve fixed these, and now the layouts of the three screens concerned look as follows:

The advanced dashboard:
The “Get Info” window:
Hopefully the only thing that looks out of place now is my playing style indicated by the statistics…
