Message: [QUOTE="_dogmeat, post: 1764806, member: 76041"] I have kinda mixed feelings about HUDs. Sure I use one (albeit I don't use it as much as I used to, mostly to just check things I'm unsure about and are somewhat rare, like 3bet freq) and sure I agree w/ the fact that you should be using every single thing that gives you an advantage and doesn't get your account blocked. The thing is, the benefit of HUDs is kinda one-sided. What I mean by this is, only somewhat good players can actually benefit from a HUD. Bad players will either use it right and still play bad or misuse it altogether. So, you see where I'm going w/ this? The better players get better and the bad players (probably) get worse. It creates an unbalanced ecosystem where the bad players feel like prey and begin starting threads like this one. It creates a cold and robotic environment where the fish isn't getting enough value for their money. No one is chatting w/ them because they're sitting @ a table full of MTTing nits that have found them using table select software. They simply get annoyed that no one wants to gambooool w/ them, or when someone does, they're usually against a better hand. Therefore they get bored of online poker and just go to gamble at the local casino. **** that online bullshit. @PokerOrifice I also don't see how you can play even decent poker @ more than 4 tables w/o a HUD. Either you're a superhuman or there's something wrong with me. I just can't see how you can pick up any reads at all. Just... no words for this, really. Maybe 6 or 8 tables max. But 15+, come on man. At any rate, I think too many people overuse their HUD. They start playing lots of tables just because "I have a HUD, I know everything". They don't focus nearly enough on picking up reads and exploiting their opponents. They're just looking @ numbers and making simple plays off of that. At least they're making money 56 tabling, right? What a joke. [/QUOTE]
