Yeah all those people using cheating programs like Poker Tracker who think there's nothing wrong with it!

I have no interest in discussing strategy with a protege'. Your job is to remain quiet and listen. I have a very systematic approach that I will share with the right candidate and I promise that I will turn you into a force of nature and show you elements of the game of poker that you never knew existed.

Alot of people read Poker forums which gives an unfair advantage to those who read, who then are called cheaters by the ones calling your bets with J4s.

Isn't pokertracker just a data collection software that allows you to track the play of other players, which then assists you, the player in making decisions during play?

How is that cheating?

Does anyone use these kind of programs here with success?

No matter what goes on there are always people whom go out side the rules and PokerTracker and others are a tool for them and poker sites can not keep up to that stuff because as soon as they can detect some one finds away to do it again!

I just saw a guy at Carbon with two accounts playing in same game at same table ( both from Romania and a letter difference ), when reported it the guy went nuts in the forum which sponsored the game.

His view was it was his extra $5 gave him the right to have 4 hold cards to every one's 2! Also it was unfair to have his accounts to be closed at the forum and Carbon! Romanian and Philippines have no internet rules you can have multiple IPs etc.

There are people who just love cheating and there is a market out there to help them.

If people keep using stuff like PokerTracker it just gives the US government an excuse to find a way to regulate on-line poker!

DO YOU WANT THAT !!!

Also why do you not try to track the play of other players yourself with out an illegal program in the government's eyes?

If you can use it in live casinos it is legal is the government view, so how do you get that into the casino? < ===Poker-Tracker and others program that do what they claim.

Why do you want to get on-line poker shut down is my question? Please answer above question and make sure you put the good points as to why Poker-Tracker and friends should be used by all!

...PT is not the reason for the UIGEA, right-wing Christian Conservatives senators (and GWB) are.

ALSO I use programs such at PT (HEM) to correctly asses my taxes from online poker, I'm sure the government hates that.

LuckySlevin is an unknown quantity at this point
I think the trick is just find a respected poker room. The big rooms have far too much to lose to do anything but make it virtually impossible for insiders to cheat the system. Also the high stakes players here wouldn't be making half as much money as they are if insider cheating was prevalent in the big rooms.
