sixsixtie 0 Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 Anyone give this program a try yet? I just gave the 5 day trail a whirl and I am thinking about ordering it. Its basically just like Gametime+ or Poker Ace except instead of drawing all the information from your poker tracker database it draws it instead from a central server of over 1 million hands. This means as soon as you join the table you have information on almost all of your opponents. Is this even legal? God damn I hope so because unless I hear other wise I will most certainly order a year subscription. The best part about it in my mind is that the hud has 9 spots for you to customize, you can put in the stats for each player that you find to be the most helpful. You can also customize the mouse over section and add 20 different stats!Anyone else give it a try yet? Howd you like it?? Link to post Share on other sites
rdtedm 0 Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 Well, it sounds good. Does it show you which cards are going to come out on the community board? Link to post Share on other sites
StupidKid 0 Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 How accurate are the numbers? I presume its vpip/pfr/AF etc. If this was as awesome as it sounded I have a feeling everyone would be using it, the fact that it's made by the poker-edge people doesn't fill me with confidence.

sixsixtie 0 Posted October 25, 2007 Author Share Posted October 25, 2007 Well, it sounds good. Does it show you which cards are going to come out on the community board? No you need user363 for that How accurate are the numbers? I presume its vpip/pfr/AF etc. If this was as awesome as it sounded I have a feeling everyone would be using it, the fact that it's made by the poker-edge people doesn't fill me with confidence.From what I've seen fairly accurate. It depends on how many hands they have on each player. For me over 1800 hands they have me at 26% VPIP 16% PFR etc etc. I dont want to write out by hand everything but its all very accurate to how I play. 6 max nl of course.

bdc30 0 Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 Didn't somebody post on here a bit ago that FT shut down their account for using this program or something very similar to it? I'd email them before signing up for anything. You know they can just shut down your account and keep your mobneys if they find you in violation of the T&C's. Link to post Share on other sites

I know pokerstars don't want you to use that type of software but on PokerEdge site it tells you how to go undetected..... hmmmm.... suspicious.... Link to post Share on other sites
gatortom64 1 Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 It's not illegal (unless you get caught)!!!! Link to post Share on other sites
FCP Bob 1,323 Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 There's a good chance that it isn't approved software at many sites.I suggest you e-mail the sites you play at and ask. Link to post Share on other sites
sixsixtie 0 Posted October 25, 2007 Author Share Posted October 25, 2007 I just read through the t&c at Part and though it was confusing I am pretty sure it doesn't have anything disallowing the use of such programs. Link to post Share on other sites

hblask 1 Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 From Pokerstars T&C:# In general, what kinds of programs are prohibited?# 1. Any program that shares hole card data with other players or programs is colluding, and is prohibited. 2. Any program that works off of a central database of player profiles is prohibited. 3. Any program that plays without human intervention (a "bot") or reduces the requirement of a human playing. For instance, an "auto-folder" is prohibited. Link to post Share on other sites
hblask 1 Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 From Full Tilt's website:Acceptable programs generally serve to help you calculate odds or to track the behavior of players that you’ve sat with at a table. As a rule of thumb, prohibited programs include those which share hole card information, compile information on players that you have not yet played with, or any “bots” or programs that play without human intervention.-------------------I don't know that I'd play on sites that allow this. Not that I think many players would be able to make good use of the information, but instead that it shows a weak policy toward cheating if they allow it. Link to post Share on other sites

davezz5 0 Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 I wanted to try out bodog and poker edge had a 3 month trial offer if you deposit $50 on Bodog. I hardly ever play PS, except for the odd f.c.p horse the last few tuesdays. I used it once observing a table and got warned not to use it again. Link to post Share on other sites
