[h2][anchor=ranges]% Ranges[/anchor][/h2] Percent ranges are in format x%, x-y%, or x%-y%

For example:

To select top ten percent of hands, enter 10%
To select hands in a percent range, say 50 to 25%, enter 25-50%, (or 25%-50%)

%’s must be preceded by : unless at start

For example, to select hands in top 10% that contain a pair of aces,

enter [aa] : 10% or 10%[aa]

%’s must be between 1 & 100

Max of one % or % range per sub-group. For multiple % ranges, use OR “ ; “ divider

For example, 10% 20% is invalid, but 10% ; 20% is ok

[h2][anchor=values]Individual Card Values[/anchor][/h2] For card values use characters : A K Q J T (or a k q j t) 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2

Card values can be preceded by ! (NOT) or followed by + or –

Examples:

T or t means the card ten
!T or !t means NOT the ten
T+ or t+ means Ten to Ace
T- or t- means Ten to Two
!T+ or !t+ means NOT Ten to Ace
!T- or !t- means NOT Ten to Two

To select a starting hand with two broadway cards and two numeric cards, but no ace,
We would write T+ T+ 9- 9- !A

[h2][anchor=groups]Card Ranges and Groups[/anchor][/h2] Card ranges or groups are enclosed in [ ] , otherwise they are interpreted as individual card values.

Examples:

[T - 7] means any one card between T & 7
T – 7 means any one card T or less and a 7
[22+] means a pair of twos to aces
22+ means a 2 and any one card two to ace
[222+] means trip 2’s to trip aces
222+ means two 2’s and any other card two to ace
[2222+] means quad 2’s to quad aces
2222+ means three 2’s and a two to ace
[33-66] means a pair of 3’s to pair of 6’s
33-66 means a 3, a 3 or less, and two 6’s
[TTT-KKK] means trip Tens to trip Kings
TTT- KKK will be rejected, as it defines 6 cards when there are only 4
[TTTT-KKKK] means quad Tens to quad Kings
TTTT- KKKK will be rejected, as it defines 8 cards when there are only 4
[9876+] means a 9 up rundown i.e 9876, T987, JT98 etc. to AKQJ
[9876-] means a 9 down rundown i.e 9876, 8765, etc. to 5432
9876+ means a 987 and a 6 to ace
9876- means a 987 and a 6 to two

[h2][anchor=macros]Constraint Macros[/anchor][/h2]

$ts three cards of one suit ex: h h h d
$ms mono suit ex: h h h h
$ds double suit ex: hh dd
$ss one suited combo ex: h h d c
$rs rainbow suit ex: h d c s
$np no pair
$1p one pair
$2p two pair
$nt no trips
$ng zero gap rundown ex: AKQJ, KQJT, QJT9
$1g one gap rundown ex: AKQT, AKJT, AQJT
$2g two gap rundown ex: AKQ9, AKT9, AJT9
$dg double gap rundown ex: AKJ9, AQJ9, AQT9
$rd a zero, one, or two gap rundown

Constraint macros can be used in conjunction with any other values.

For example, to select double suited and double paired hands of which one pair is aces, type [AA] $ds $2p

[h2][anchor=not]Not “!” modifier[/anchor][/h2] The not modifier means not equal.

For example:

To say not double suited, syntax is: !$ds
To exclude aces from range: !a
To exclude tens and aces: !a!t
To exclude pair of aces: ![aa]
To exclude pairs of nines to pairs of fives: ![99-55]

[h2][anchor=or]OR “;” modifier[/anchor][/h2] The “;” (semi-colon) modifier is used to create OR relations.

For example, to select hands with a single ace and Mid Pair OR pair of aces and anything

Write as: A [TT-77] ; [AA]

If you want to filter for gap in bottom:

Use syntax: AKQT ; KQJ9 ; QJT8 ; JT97 ; T986 ; 9875 ; 7653 ; 6542 ; 543A

[h2][anchor=syntax]Real-Time syntax feed-back[/anchor][/h2] When typing the system provides real-time feed-back on the syntax. It provides it via color coding and mouse-over pop-ups.

Purple: means input is not complete (pop-up says “Incomplete”) or contains an error (pop-up attempts to explain error)
Blue: means input is complete and correct

For example:

[ A will show as purple until we complete the expression with closing ]
then [AA] will show as blue
if we add a percent [AA] 10 will show purple until we add %
then [AA] 10% will show red and tip will say [AA] 10 is invalid percent range (use : )
add : then [AA] : 10% will show blue and tip will say parsed

[h2][anchor=combining]Combining Filters[/anchor][/h2]

Custom Omaha Filter: [AA] $ss a Pair of Aces and single suited (any 2 cards can be suited)
Suitedness: Ace suited now only suited aces will show

Result: Pair of Aces, suited to one of the Aces (eg. AsKs AdTc )
