Re: 100-200 Lifeline

Say what? I'm not gonna defend myself, I'll just say that having moral issues with this is absurd. [/ QUOTE ] You either didn't read or don't respond to my post. Either way it doesn't matter. Moral issues aside, IM'ing a buddy and gaining info during a hand totally violates the one player to a hand rule. You feel you don't have to defend yourself about it. That's funny. So, in other words, there's 2 sets of rules about the integrity of poker - live and online. I'd like to see your reaction when the guy sitting next to you at the table asks the buddy next to him what he knows about you. I'm guessing you'd have a problem with it. Hypocritical. |

What are your feelings on pokertracker and datamining? [/ QUOTE ] By asking that does it mean you feel IM'ing is the same as using PT? What's your thoughts about IM'ing back and forth while playing a hand? Does it violate the rule, or is it different because it's hidden? I'm guessing you've done it, have no problem with it and correlate it with PT as justifiable. BTW - there was a thread about Party not being able to be mined in the future. Not sure how accurate it is. |

Re: 100-200 Lifeline
IM'ing is way less threatening than pokertracker.
You could be the best poker player on the planet, but if you can't figure out how to run a pokertracker, good luck handling the other good players who have every bit of information they could possibly want on you. Is that still with the integrity of the game? |

[/ QUOTE ] You are wrong. You cant possibly compare live poker to internet poker in this way. Information has become an accepted part of the game. Pokertracker, datamining, pokerstove, pokerace, notes files etc. I remember an article Negraneu wrote a while back about him and three of his friends sitting around playing omaha on his account sharing the decisions. Spliting buy ins, sharing accounts, sharing player info etc is a part of internet poker. As long as there is no collusion, as far as Im concerned they can check their notes, IM Aunt Bula or call the Hustler for information on my play. Its all fair game on the net. |

You are wrong. [/ QUOTE ] No Steve, I'm right about the distinction existing. You've plainly stated there's 2 sets of rules about the one player to a hand rule. Online doesn't hold itself to the same level of integrity live play does. You won't like the phrasing of that but, based on everything you said, that is a true statement. You clarified that. I never thought it was okay and get pissed when I know guys are obviously IM'ing in the middle of a hand. I got it now. It's not okay live, but is online. I'm surprised and disappointed of the attitude and acceptance of it, but have no desire to swim against the tide here. No problem. |

I guess there is a lower standard to a point, and defintely a different set of rules. |

Re: 100-200 Lifeline
There are dudes sharing their hands and colluding and who knows what else online, and you want to get uppity because someone AIMs someone "dude, just how tight is this guy"?
