Putting aside all the issues regarding the genuineness of their advertisment, and whether or not using it is ethical in the first place...

Is its SNG tracking ability better now? When it first came out it was catching less than 50% of the total SNGs, IIRC. Is it anywhere near the 90% or whatever that its makers were promising?

Hopefully people who own it can chime in.

On the account I started last week:

Prophecy says: 5 wins, 5 losses
actual results: 8 wins, 6 losses

...so it got 10 out of 14. meh. It very well could be business as usual.

Is it worth buying???
Playing the 100s I am assuming that it its.
How much does it cost and how much does it help?

Im wondering how it works. If you can only search by name it is pretty useless.

If you use it to compile a list of everyone that has a certain ITM% at a level, it would be useful.

under my account name fisheyplayer I have never played anything lower then a $50 sng yet I found these stats listed below.

$30 Table: 0 wins / 1 losses / 0% wins
$20 Table: 2 wins / 1 losses / 66.67% wins
$10 Table: 0 wins / 3 losses / 0% wins
$5 Table: 0 wins / 3 losses / 0% wins

maybe i played a 30 or 20 and dont remember, but there is NO WAY I would sit down to play 3 $5 and 3 $10 games.

It's getting about 63% of my tournaments since March 28 --- with no bias towards getting wins or losses.

Well, I haven't had a good run as of this past week, but I think my stats are very relevant to this question. And I'm having a lot of thoughts about pokerprophecy with it's upcoming overlay debut next month.

I started a new account on April 3rd. My recorded stats are as follows:

$55s 108 SNGs 35% ITM
$33s 145 SNGs 37% ITM

Here is what pokerprophecy has on me.

$50 Table: 33 wins / 44 losses / 42.86% wins
$30 Table: 36 wins / 53 losses / 40.45% wins

At least pokerprophecy thinks I'm a pro. Too bad my bankroll doesn't prove it (for the last week at least) /images/graemlins/blush.gif

It had around half of my games and with my ITM 10% to high. Good to know someone has faith in my potential.

i love it...its only $30 and if it can help you spot a maniac's move early on and double up...its paid for itself.

I tend to agree with Degen here.

What about the fact that the producer of it is a weiner?

You guys have to do a search for everyone at the table still, or is it auto??

How do you interpret the results in the table, especially if it's just itm%? Do you really see players who log 200+ games at a win rate of 15 or less percent that much? I'm curious how people are interpreting the data.

You shouldnt even bother interpretting the data. It is at least 2 weeks out of date and it seems to only catch about 70% of total SNG entries.

For the pure entertainment value of looking up your opponents during levels 1-3 where you pretty much fold almost every hand I have found it quite useful however.

Positives: Good for identifying potential LAG players early on you don't otherwise have marked. Also the higher the ITM / games played the more you should respect raises, bets, calls from this player especially early on. It's only $30 which is probably well spent if you play any significant number of SNG's.

Negatives: False claims on website and owner sometimes tends to act like a dick.

My analysis: Definitely +EV.

Aside from the fact that he obsessively spams, seems to annoy most people here when he happens to post & would probably do anything to get more subscribers to his site I'd rather not. I don't want to give him any ideas. It's a good thing people seriously underestimate the usefulness of this tool.

I have played under 2 screen names since I heard about pokerprophecy. It has recorded a bit less than 1/2 the games I have played. One screen name is reported about 9% too low and the other is reported about 10% too high. It caught a higher percentage of the games I played with the older screen name.

Pretty small sample though, I've only played 161 games at the level I moved to since I heard of it.

Under my Eurobet name: 122 10+1 SNG's played. According to poker prophecy: 7 played.

I opened a new account on Eurobet last week, and changed my party name last Sunday. Out of 92 played, they caught 5. I sent them an email, and they said that they would update the last 5 days stats today. We will see.

I sure hope they don't fire me.
