When you address the real problem with internet poker then maybe you can get somewhere. It's totally unregulated and allowed to operate outside law, they do whatever they want, have no limits and nothing will change until they are called to task. Instead of trying to get rid of poker tracker maybe u should start with getting internet poker on land that is regulated and not allowed to operate like the wild west.

Just going off your opening, it's giving off the impression you think poker should be about luck, and not skill. Um, if I spent thousands of hours studying a game, I better damn well have an advantage over your average player. If I wanted a to play a game where I couldn't get an advantage over people, no matter how much/well I played, I'd just go bet it all on black, ldo.

And, how many respondents on this thread MISSED the OBVIOUS humor meant by the OP?

Those with the one minded stack equivocating their positions, without realizing - THE TOPIC IS MEANT AS SARCASM, JOKE, ETC.

Geez.

He wasn't being sarcastic, and neither am I.

First they came for the multi-tablers, and I did nothing because I'm not a multi-tabler.

Then they came for the short-stackers, and I helped them because shorties suck.

Then they came for me, and nobody cared because I tend to ramble aimlessly.

Makes perfect sense to me, I don't see why untrained people shouldn't have the same chance of doing open heart surgery.

i used to multitable without a hud up until recently. i was winning about the same amt as i am currently. i say there are certainly ppl who feel this way towards huds, which i feel is a legitimate concern for them. i dont mind if the sites got rid of huds, i'd actually be for it. i would really like to see tables that are "hud-free" though i think that would really be something interesting, and would attract those players turned off by multitablers with huds.

I am fine with banning any and all heads-up displays and dataming sites/software, but not tracking software for your own data/data collected from playing others kept for record keeping/analyzing purposes. Poker calculators such as SNG Wizard and PokerStove are fine to be used when not playing. Hotkey programs such as TableNinja are fine as well.

Just against HUDs, Sharkscope, PTR, OPR, and datamining.
