Poker Calculator Announcement: Hold’em Pirate and Hold’em Hawk Prohibited by Poker Stars
Since the Party Poker collapse last fall, Poker Stars has surfaced as the undeniable head in pure numbers of on line poker players. They have the largest tournaments, the most active tables, the biggest cash games, and also the quickest filling sit and go tournaments online. With that comes power - the strength to pick your partners, affiliate marketers, and nearer to our point; acceptable software program.
Lengthy have I been advocating Hold em Hawk and Holdem Pirate (they're really the exact same) poker calculators as easy to use and visibly pleasing poker calculators. Recently though, these items have pushed the limits of suitable use, a minimum of within the view of Poker Stars, and consequently have been forbidden from use on that internet site. This is sad news, as a good product, not unlike a few of the appropriate software program allowed by Stars, is now practically grounded because the largest poker internet site on the planet thinks it's too closely related to an Operative Poker Calculator.
An Operative Poker Calculator is just like a secret adviser working for you, gathering and digging through player details that you can use against them later on. The factor is, you don't need to be at the table for this to happen. The software program (database) is working all the time for you. For the majority of poker internet sites, which is over the line of fairness, just as in real life as well.
But Hold em Pirate and Holdem Hawk are in fact Empirical Poker Calculators, just the exact same as Holdem Indicator is. These kinds of poker calculators only accumulate information and facts on your opponents whenever you are at the table, just like you had been playing in a live scenario.
So why the Poker Stars Smack? Here's an actual warning I got from Poker Stars although running Holdem Pirate:
Following an assessment of your account, we locate that you might be running an external program identifiedas Poker Sherlock, or its associated programs, Poker Edge, PokerBotPro, Hold em Hawk and Hold em Pirate......PokerStars shall be entitled to take such action as it sees fit, such as instantly preventing entry to the Games to such User, closing such User's account with PokerStars and seizing all funds held in the relevant Poker Stars "real cash account".
Hey, did you notice the "seizing all money" line? That is what you may do whenever you are this large!
The "related applications" is the origin of the issue. The business that designed Hawk and Pirate also produce Poker Edge and PokerBotPro, which are data miners. In fact, I believe that Stars suspects Hawk and Pirate actually gather data for these related products, although looking like an Empirical Poker Calculator on the surface.
So therein sits the core of the issue. In the event you take place to play on Stars and have Hawk or Pirate, you're out of luck, as I have tried to reverse this judgment. I received a considerate response from the personnel at Poker Stars, except actually, it is not likely to change. The very good news though is that Hold em Indicator has been added to Poker Stars appropriate software checklist, and it's the only empirical calculator to be approved by them.
