How to install the PokerStrategy.com Elephant

The PokerStrategy.com Elephant records your poker hands in a database. These are then available for analysis and you can read important values on its display as you play at the poker tables.

The complete installation process, starting from the download and including the setting up of your database and the display of statistical values at the poker table, is described in the installation video guide:

Important! The PokerStrategy.com Elephant needs English poker hands

If you don't have the English version of the poker room software installed, then please uninstall and reinstall it selecting English as your language.

On Full Tilt Poker and PokerStars you can change the language directly in the software itself. For Full Tilt Poker, go to the 'languages' menu at the top. For PokerStars, the same menu option is called 'language'.

Please ensure that your poker hands (and your hand histories etc) are being saved. This is usually automatic, however in some rooms, e.g. Full Tilt Poker and PokerStars, you have to activate it first under 'options/settings' .

Setting up the Database

The PokerStrategy.com Elephant uses PostgreSQL as its database. This is a popular database system and is automatically installed with the PokerStrategy.com Elephant installation.

During the installation, the software will ask you for a username and password for the database system. Make a note of your username and password because you will need them later.

The first time you run the PokerStrategy.com Elephant, the first database for your
poker hands will be created. You will be required to enter your username and password again. That's all you need to do and the PokerStrategy.com Elephant is ready for use.

What to do if I encounter problems with the database or PostgreSQL?

The PokerStrategy.com Elephant needs at least PostgreSQL 8.3. If you have an older version, as you may have once used PokerTracker 2, then uninstall PostgreSQL completely. Learn more about this here:

How to uninstall older versions of PostgreSQL

Please install PostgreSQL 8.3 or higher.

Important: You'll find a functional PostgreSQL installation file for the PokerStrategy.com Elephant directly in the software folder on your hard disk. The file is called postgresql-8.3-int.msi. Please use this file, as the official download version on the internet has been known to cause problems for many users.
