Poker Tracker?

I'm looking to start data mining to get some info about my opponents without playing hands with them. I remember hearing about a program that Bruno mentioned that allows you to do something like this. Now that the games are a bit tougher - I think exploiting opponents is the main way to earn money online. I have had much better results lately playing two 6-max tables and using poker tracker and gametime. I was curious if there was a program that basically just opens tables of a certain limit, and allows you to record the hands, then you can put them in poker tracker for use in gametime.

If you had say 1000+ hands of most of your opponents, it would be quite easy to take advantage of their play styles. AND it would also point out players who are fishy or "hobby" type players.

Idealy, I'd like to data mine for a couple weeks 8-10 hours a day, maybe even 16+ if I let it run at night too. Then I'd sit down at a few tables and really have a HUGE advantage over my opponents.

Along these lines - I was curious if any of you have given much thought into the best ways to take advantage of players with various stats. I'm gonna try to really focus on the best ways to beat players with a certain W$SD or VPIP.

What do we think about this one?

Idle Miner works well. That's what I used when I started out. However, I stubled onto Spadeye (http://www.spadeit.com/eyeindex.php) and I like it alot more, it's much more strait forward and it helps me with table selection.

I'm pretty much datamining whenever i'm not playing poker. I keep different databases for the different level.

As for explotation, there are a few things I look at:

PFR: People with high PFR I will 3 bet alot and just pick up the pots, if they 4 bet I will just muck it unless I feel like they are playing back at me.

WSD: People who go to show down are calling stations, I tend to value bet them very slim. People who don't go to showdown enough, I will bet multiple streets.

Cold Call: I will bet multiple streets into players who cold call too often.

Flop/Cont Bet: You will run into players who cont. bet 95%+ of the time... CR, CR and CR some more.

Curses to you Thule! my north pole internet pays per Meg so I can't really data mine. When I get out of here in two months I will data mine a lot more and talk things over with Andrew. I also like the 6 handed tables and plan on playing a lot more when I get my next couple of days off work.
