Have been playing about 18 mo, but just now starting to expand my online game; began multitabling, using PT, etc.
Read an article about online poker about a week ago (was a link from one of these threads), and the author (the guy at Card Player mag) made a passing remark about "datamining" while playing online being against policy of the poker sites. Stated that they monitor for these programs being used, and will bar you from the site if they catch you.
I assume he's talking about Gametime & PokerAce type programs (which I haven't started using yet). Have looked in the FAQs and back through a lot of threads, but haven't seen anything about this on this site. I'd like to try out as many tools as I can, and use those I find advantageous...but I also want to stay legitimate and not cross any lines.
Can anyone lend some insight on this?
