Where To Get Your Hand Histories

GTO Wizard’s hand history Analyzer is a powerful tool, but to use it, you first need to locate your hand history. This guide will walk you through how to export your hand histories as a text file from most poker sites and poker trackers.

Most online poker sites allow you to automatically export hand histories directly to your PC as a text file, or request hand histories through the client. Some poker sites require special conversion software or hand grabbers.

All poker trackers should offer the ability to export hand histories.

Please note that the reference guides link to 3rd party websites which may not be up-to-date. If you get stuck, we recommend contacting support.
