Summary
The author details a two-week intensive poker journey where they played 1,000 hands online and live, then developed a web application using Cursor AI. The process involved extensive hand analysis using PokerTracker 4, studying six poker strategy books, journaling, and eventually creating Python automation scripts to manage hand history data. The project evolved from basic data management to building a comprehensive web application for poker analysis and tracking.
Key quotes
· 4 pulledIn the last two weeks I spent over a dozen hours playing poker, primarily online at pokerstarsmi.com, and live at a local casino.
I spent at least as much time reviewing my hands with a desktop app called PokerTracker 4, I read 6 books, studied strategy, and journaled about it my Apple Notes.
Then I started building my own Python script automations to export my hand history from PokerStars, import it into PokerTracker 4, check my balance, stuff like that.
That led me to getting help writing code from Grok, then Cursor AI to build a web application.
