Yup... as I'm sure many of you have already heard....
Full Tilt Poker on OPR
June 2009
Full Tilt Poker (FTP) has demanded us to remove all FTP tournaments and player statistics from Official Poker Rankings (OPR) because they suddenly decided that OPR "gives players an unfair advantage" and works "very similar to how a shared hand history database works".
We don't believe OPR gives players an unfair advantage. OPR is a free site available to all players and in our opinion any player should be allowed to use OPR to follow their progress, for stacking, collusion detection, community discussions, competitions and to see how they are doing in comparison to other poker players.
All the data we collect is publicly viewable at the end of each tournament in the tournament lobby. We do not collect hand histories nor do we provide access to any hand history information. OPR has nothing to do with a shared hand history database.
We have proposed Full Tilt Poker different solutions to keep FTP tournaments on OPR and we hope they will reverse their decision and help us clear this misunderstanding soon. But for now we have decided to follow their demands to remove all FTP tournaments on OPR.
Your opinion matters.
We strongly encourage you to forward your opinion about this to support@fulltiltpoker.com
We would also like to hear your comments and feedback. Please forward to ftpfeedback@officialpokerrankings.com
- Please forward a link if you are posting about this on an open forum / message board. Thank you.
We apologize for the inconvenience.

Damn..1st time I head of this. I think financial means are involved since a lot of new web sites like sharkscope appear from nowhere and ask you to pay a monthly fee to use their service.

If anything PTR should be shut down first. I mean, you can order batches of HH's on people you've never played with before. That's just sick.

"Once we reach a certain level of mastery, we see there are higher levels and challenges. If we are disciplined and patient, we proceed. At each higher level, new pleasures and insights await us--ones not even suspected when we started out. We can take this as far as we want--in any human activity there is always a higher level to which we can aspire."
