I hate to be the one to ask the question, but Danny was talking about looking up each player at his table using sharkscope throughout the video series. This is clearly stated as one of the prohibited pieces of software during play on the pokerstars website.

 

…..rohibited/

 

Some examples of tools and services which are prohibited only while PokerStars is running are:

 

22. SharkScope (including SharkScope HUD)

 

Am I missing something here? Did Danny just post documented proof of him cheating according to the terms of service?

Hey Byski let me take a shot at answering your question if your missing something or not. First of all I dont think you hated being the one to ask that question at all. Your'e that guy that just likes to stir the pot for no reason whatsoever. It doesnt matter that 99.9 percent of pokerstars users dont know that its against the TOS of stars as nobody reads those anyway. Also 50 percent of stars users  use shark scope. I didnt know it was against the rules to use sharkscope until I read this ridiculous post. Looks like they mayans had it right were all ****ed the world is ending dannyn13 used sharkscope for christ sakes.

No, I didn't know that everyone uses sharkscope while playing the game. And if my use of 'cheating' as a comment causes you guys to get upset, I hope you can believe me I am not trying to stir the pot. I just wanted clarification is all. I do not use sharkscope as I intend to play within the guidelines and have zero risk of getting banned. I seriously had no idea that as many players use it as you suggested.

 

For what it is worth it doesn't take away from knowing how to play winning poker, which is what Danny demonstrated with his video.

    I do not consider it cheating as poker is a game of information. Some sites like Lock include “x” amount of uses per day of Sharkscope free.  For lock it is under player administration. Sometimes it can give an edge but it can also be misleading.  As Bigdog mentioned a lot of people use it.

Could you imagine if everyone got banned for using HUDS on Pokerstars, how many players would be gone? There would be no more Sunday Million or Sunday Warmup because then they not let bigdog play because he is the HUD. ha ha. Really, if it is something you don't like, I would suggest playing at Bovada where you are left anonomous. I do know they even have HUD's at Bovada but the information is for just the tourney.

The HUD for me is merely for my math because I suck at math.

Thats why Danny wins! All I needed was a sharkscope account all along. Thanks byski. I'm going to cancel my tournament poker edge account immediately.
