I mostly agree with you I think. online poker is pretty different. It's probably just me, but I'm often not ready to make a decision in 15 or 20 seconds, for example. Never -the-less, if you were playing online chess, wouldn't you consider it cheating if your opponent used a computer to make his/her moves? Probably not the same thing, but my point is there is a line that shouldn't be crossed somewhere - I'm just not sure where the line should be in this case.
Agreed, it would be considered cheating, but that isn't what tracking software does. It doesn't tell you what moves to make when, it just tells you what your opponents have done in the past. There are some other programs that will go through and tell you what moves to make based on your hand strength/odds/opponents tendencies(or are just all out bots) and those are the programs that the poker sites have on their banned software lists, and those programs I disagree with completely because in that sense you are not playing against a person who just has a lot of past information at his hands(like with a tracker), but rather against a person who is explicitly being told what to do by a program. I would say that would be the line you're talking about being crossed, but that's just my opinion.
You have convinced me for the most part. Collusion, software that reads hole cards (is there still any that do this?), that type of thing is over the line. Plus, let's face it, software won't help you avoid your opponent getting runner runner to beat you (lol).
I am positive there is software out there that still does this, but I don' think much of it is widespread. More custom programmed and private I would assume. From what I have read about the bot software these days it is the same way. That is really the only way for the cheaters to be sure that their programs won't be caught on by the poker sites so they won't get caught(granted there are other ways to catch them if they wanted)
This is what could be confusing him Hamm. You see 2 dl's available from the PT3 DL section.
The Beta is the newest test version that is being worked on. It will usually have some new features that are not fully tested but may also include some changes/fixes that one would want NOW instead of waiting for them to be officially released.
For me I'm using the current Beta as it now supports Merge network HH's.
