Buy Cereus Hand Histories
Some poker rooms consider buying hand histories to be an unfair advantage. I don't have the time to stay up to date with the changes the poker rooms make to their T&Cs, so be sure to check them yourself.
Guide to buying Cereus (Absolute Poker/Ultimate Bet) hand histories.
More and more people chose to buy hand histories instead of datamining themselves. There are several reasons for this, most important are that you can buy many more hand histories that you would ever be able to datamine yourself, and often at fairly low prizes (depending on the stakes you play).
At the moment there are only 1 site that sell Cereus hand histories, Hand HQ. I have used them for a long time, and have always gotten my hand histories delivered almost instantly after paying them.
Buy Cereus hand histories from Hand HQ
I have written a short introduction to Hand HQ below. Read the full review of Hand HQ.
Hand HQ
During the last 6 months I have bought hand histories from Hand HQ several times, and have also asked their support questions a couple of times.
Whenever I have placed an order with them, I have always gotten the hand histories within 2 hours of paying. Please note this is only based on my own personal experience, and you may end up having to wait a bit longer if you order at a time where they happen to be very busy.
The times I have sent emails to their support I have gotten a well written email back within 24 hours.
You can buy hand histories from Hand HQ without creating an account on their website, however, I highly recommend that you do so, since it will allow you to access hand histories from previous orders right on their website. This is very handy if you should ever need to reinstall Holdem Manager/Pokertracker or start playing from a different computer, since you won't have to worry about taking a backup of other hand histories than your own - You can just download the datamined ones again.
