Poker Calculator Report: Hold em Pirate and Hold em Hawk Barred by Poker Stars

September 21st, 2012 by Alexa Leave a reply »

Since the Party Poker collapse last fall, Poker Stars has come forth as the undeniable leader in absolute quantities of internet based poker players. They have the biggest tournaments, the most lively tables, the biggest cash games, plus the fastest filling sit down and go tournaments on the net. With that comes power – the power to select your associates, web marketers, and closer to our point; acceptable software program.

Long have I been advocating Hold em Hawk and Holdem Pirate (they’re actually the exact same) poker calculators as easy to use and visibly pleasing poker calculators. Lately though, these products have pressed the boundaries of suitable use, a minimum of inside the view of Poker Stars, and therefore have been banned from use on that website. This is depressing news, as a reasonable product, not unlike some of the suitable computer software permitted by Stars, is now practically grounded because the biggest poker website on the planet thinks it’s too directly related to an Operative Poker Calculator.

An Operative Poker Calculator is just like a secret adviser operating for you, gathering and digging through player information and facts that you may use on them at a later time. The thing is, you do not have to be at the table for this to take place. The software (database) is working all the time for you. For the majority of poker web sites, which is over the line of fairness, just as in actual life as well.

Except Holdem Pirate and Hold em Hawk are truly Empirical Poker Calculators, just the same as Holdem Indicator is. These varieties of poker calculators only acquire facts on your opponents whenever you are at the table, just like you were betting in an actual scenario.

So why the Poker Stars Smack? Here’s a real alert I was sent from Poker Stars whilst running Holdem Pirate:

Upon an assessment of your account, we uncover that you might be running an external program identifiedas Poker Sherlock, or its associated software, Poker Edge, PokerBotPro, Holdem Hawk and Holdem Pirate……PokerStars shall be entitled to take such action as it sees fit, such as immediately preventing entry to the Games to such User, closing such User’s account with PokerStars and confiscating all monies held within the relevant Poker Stars "real money account".

Hey, did you notice the "appropriating all funds" line? That’s what it is possible to do whenever you are this big!

The "related applications" is the origin of the difficulty. The business that designed Hawk and Pirate also make Poker Edge and PokerBotPro, which are data miners. Actually, I think that Stars suspects Hawk and Pirate truly gather data for these related programs, although appearing like an Empirical Poker Calculator on the surface.

So therein lays the core of the problem. Should you occur to play on Stars and have Hawk or Pirate, you might be out of luck, as I have attempted to alter this judgment. I received a polite response from the personnel at Poker Stars, except truly, it is not likely to alter. The very good news though is that Hold em Indicator has been added to Poker Stars suitable software program list, and it is the only empirical calculator to be authorized by them.
