Hand Converter

Paste a raw hand history into the box and pick a format — Forum (BBCode), Markdown, or Plain Text. The converter auto-detects the site and rewrites suits as symbols. Supports PokerStars, Ignition / Bovada, 888, ACR / WPN, partypoker, GGPoker, and BetOnline. While JavaScript loads, here’s what the input and output of a typical conversion look like.

Why format hand histories? Raw hand histories are hard to read — they’re full of internal IDs, timestamps, and inconsistent formatting. A clean, formatted hand history makes it easy for forum readers and study-group friends to follow the action and give you feedback. The Forum / BBCode format works on 2+2, CardsChat, and most traditional poker forums; Markdown works on Discord and Reddit; Plain Text works anywhere.
