Poker Calculator Report: Holdem Pirate … Holdem Hawk Forbidden by Poker Stars

[ English ]

Since the Party Poker failure last fall, Poker Stars has come forth as the indisputable head in sheer quantities of internet based poker players. They have the biggest tournaments, the most lively tables, the largest money games, and also the quickest filling sit and go tournaments on-line. With that comes power – the power to choose your partners, online marketers, and closer to our point; appropriate software program.

Long have I been advocating Holdem Hawk and Holdem Pirate (they’re in fact the same) poker calculators as simple to use and visibly attractive poker calculators. Lately though, these solutions have pushed the boundaries of suitable use, at least in the view of Poker Stars, and consequently have been restricted from use on that internet site. This is sad news, as a good product, not unlike several of the suitable software program allowed by Stars, is now practically grounded because the largest poker internet site on the planet thinks it is too closely similar to an Operative Poker Calculator.

An Operative Poker Calculator is just like a secret advisor operating for you, amassing and mining player facts that you may use on them at a later time. The thing is, you don’t need to be at the table for this to take place. The software program (database) is working all the time for you. For the majority of poker internet sites, that’s over the line of justness, just as in real life also.

But Hold em Pirate and Holdem Hawk are actually Empirical Poker Calculators, just the exact same as Hold em Indicator is. These varieties of poker calculators only collect info on your opponents whenever you are at the table, just like you were wagering in an actual situation.

So why the Poker Stars Smack? Here is an actual alert I was sent from Poker Stars although running Hold em Pirate:

Upon an overview of your account, we come across that you’re running an external application knownas Poker Sherlock, or its associated programs, Poker Edge, PokerBotPro, Hold em Hawk and Hold em Pirate……PokerStars shall be permitted to take such action as it sees fit, including instantly blocking entry to the Games to such User, terminating such User’s account with PokerStars and seizing all funds held within the relevant Poker Stars "actual cash account".

Hey, did you observe the "appropriating all funds" line? That is what it is possible to do when you are this huge!

The "related applications" is the source of the problem. The corporation that designed Hawk and Pirate also make Poker Edge and PokerBotPro, which are data miners. In fact, I think that Stars thinks Hawk and Pirate truly gather data for these associated products, whilst looking like an Empirical Poker Calculator on the surface.

So therein sits the heart of the difficulty. When you occur to wager on on Stars and have Hawk or Pirate, you’re out of luck, as I have attempted to change this judgment. I received a polite response from the personnel at Poker Stars, except truly, it is not likely to alter. The excellent news though is that Holdem Indicator has been added to Poker Stars acceptable software program list, and it’s the only empirical calculator to be approved by them.
