Default Re: Sharkscope

TNixon - you'#re absolutely right, that's exactly what I meant.

Obviously it is best to be playing against losing players rather than winning players, but what baffles me is when people post a marginal hand on about hand 15 and say "I was tempted to [call/shove] because Sharkscope shows he's a donk."

Yeah, but some are donks because they'll try a huge bluff in a situation where you're clearly strong, some because they call way too much, some because they fold way too much, some because they can't lay down a nice looking hand etc. Sharkscope (unlike, for example, PT) doesn't tell you any of those things, just that they are a losing player. It just tells you that there are leaks to look out for.

TNixon put it way better than I did, although I was being slightly vague on purpose!
