Hands Overview
The FlopHero Hands screen is your detailed analysis center for examining individual decision quality and managing your session files. It’s divided into two main sections that work together to give you complete control over your hand analysis: the session files table and the detailed hands table.
Session files table: Your analysis dashboard
The upper section displays all your uploaded session files with comprehensive analysis metrics. Each row represents a complete session file with decision quality breakdown and analysis status.

Conclusion
The FlopHero Hands screen provides a comprehensive two-level analysis system. The session files table gives you macro-level insights into your overall decision quality, while the detailed hands table enables micro-level examination of specific decisions.
Effective use means starting with the session overview to identify your most problematic sessions, then drilling down into individual hands to understand specific mistakes. Use the decision quality categories to prioritize your study time, focusing first on sessions with high Blunder percentages and hands with significant GTO ΔEV impact.
Remember: the goal is to identify systematic patterns in your mistakes and use the detailed hand data to understand why certain decisions were suboptimal. This two-level approach ensures you can see both the forest (session patterns) and the trees (individual decisions).
